Lol But has his character been updated since pokemon the first movie or any of the games, dont you think it would be time for change and i think it should be one of the other not both. (most preferably Lucario)

I liked the idea of Pokemon Rival having one starter from 3 different generations. It would make him different from Trainer and it would add representation for all the Pokemon games. But I doubt it will happen.

Mewtwo's oooooooooollllld man his times gone lol let it go. Oh yh lets not forget our wonderful PKM rival who i suggest should have lucario as a pokemon If Lucario doesnt get his own character slot Replacing that grandad mewtwo.

The opposite and newer than the PT

PT = Squirtle, Ivysaur, Charizard

Rival = Chikorita/Treecko, Cyndaquil/Torchic, Totodile/Mudkip
(Either tier and I don't know the most recent one) And whatever evolution form.

So its like he chose the opposite of your main like he does in the game.

Those Lucario-replacing-Mewtwo fanboys are really annoying. Mewtwo is, by far, the best pokémon (the other pokémon are prescindible scum). No, Lucario's not cooler, he's a blue dog with shorts; and a generic pokémon.

Why not both?
I don't support Lucario (in fact, I hate him), but he's popular and the most recognizable 4th gen pokémon, so he should be in. BUT, Mewtwo is the most recognizable legendary pokémon, and it's one of the most popular pokémon worldwide. Both of them should be in, along with Jigglypuff. That's 5 pokémon reps.

Pikachu as the face; Trainer as the main protagonist; Mewtwo representing the Legendary pokémons; Lucario representing the non-1st gen pokémon and Jigglypuf... is cute.

Oh, and the Pokémon Rival is a bad idea. Pokémon Trainer is awesome because he's the most unique fighter ever (even more than Ice Climbers and Olimar). Two trainers is a bad idea.

Yhyh true just to make it more similar to the actually games themselves he always chooses the pokemon with the weakness to your main (Cheeky Bit.ch) But i would also like really good pokemon involved aswell.

Jigglypuff is not negotiable. She's a classic. The Classic Mode without her is bull****. No, my friend, Jigglypuff is a Smash icon and she'll be in, again.

BTW, she's a shoe-in (thank you, Snake).

I think it would be cool if the Rival Trainer had the three original Eevee evolutions. I really doubt that would happen, but it would be somewhat consistent with Yellow.

It would be good but i think he should be more similar to how the games are and have 3 different evoulutions and weaknesses of PKM trainers starters

The classic Pokemon fan in me would want him to have Pidgeot, Alakazam, and Gyarados, but that DEFINITELY is not going to happen.

Because that would be too badass to have. It would be funny that all of them would be pokeballs though.

True i doubt it because the pokemon are kinda random and of key and really dont make a set unless those 3 were used in an episode maybe. But i would like PKM Rival o be based on gary, Arcanine, Alakazam and stuff but its more likely gonna be the the starters if he is included

Thats true But note there have been so many rivals in the pokemon series so i think he should use the Pokemong league champion set pokemon used in the era of pokemon trainer or maybe the champion set from gold/silver. But my favourite would be Gary from Fire red i mean Heracross/Tyranitar/Skamory they where pretty cool.

I think we were lucky to get PT with the original starters. I doubt there will be any more first-generation reps. 3rd and 4th generation SUCK!

I guess Rival could have one starter from each other generation. Each evolutionary stage would have the advantage over PT. I would like Feraligatr, Monferno, and Treecko.

Makes sense for that to be ok we dont want to give him a huge advantage over pokemon trainer because PKM trainer would just look like a background character that way.
