What are you going to name yourself and your rival in BW2?

[Kaoru]

The title says it all. Yes, you actually get to name your rival, just like in RBY/GSC/FRLG/DPPt/HGSS.

As for myself, I'll be naming myself Mei (the female player character's official name) for the Japanese games and Usagi for the English games. I mean, c'mon. How does she not look like Sailor Moon? (without the outfit and stuff, but still...)

I'll name my rival Hue (his official name) for the Japanese games and I haven't decided on a name for the English games yet.

[Judge Dredd]

I use to name my rivals after my roommate since we use always fight about pokemon. Im not sure he will be getting b/w 2 so ill have to think of something new. I might go with one of the random trainers ive battled on here, like Dark Knuckles ( and old friend). As for myself, im thinking Max will do fine for this game.

[Arch Enemy]

I'm not sure yet. I'll probably just go with whatever comes to mind when playing the game~

[Sheepat]

Sheepat, since it's the universal name I use on forums and such. I think I'll do Skorpio for my rival, like I did in HGSS.

[Neku Sakuraba]

I think I'll name myself Quinn, since that is my real name. And MGS wouldn't look good as the only completely capitalized name in an almost completely decapitalized game. And my rival...probably Corey or Chris. I dunno.

[Necromancer]

Me; Black.
Rival; White.

Buying Black 2.
Sorry, i had to take the obvious name D:

WOO COREY!

Me: Corey, my real name.
Rival: Not sure yet...

[dimondgirlofthefuture]

My character- probably Fae or something similar
Rival- probably Alec, my cousin's name. He's technically my rival when it comes to playing Pokemon games anyway:L

[mintjelly]

I'll be naming myself Minty, because that's what I've been naming myself since I came here.
My rival will have the default name; I'm not that creative with rival names.

I see what you did there sir... LOL.

I actually have a Japanese copy of white 2 right now that I'm nuzlocking my first playthrough through. Trainer name Knux rival name Reece (real life pokemon rival) (Dredd) you know him by Antik.

Since this for when the American version comes out, ill probably stick with the same trainer name Knux.. might change up the rival name however

Sorry to interrupt your Pokemon fantasy dream, but if you've played any of the main series Pokemon games, you would know that player character and rival names can only be 7 letters long, so try different names. :P

[Typhlosion Explosion]

I might go with a real life rival, Pokemon or not. Probably not, because the BW2 Rival is a friend, not a foe. I'll probably go with Quinn (MGS). I can't really think of anymore friendly Pokemon rivals. XD
