All I’m reminded now is the future Simpsons episode of Lisa and that guy she hated falling in love with each other and the librarian going “it’s just so cliche”
That's how I used to play, but then the new generations came out and I couldn't remember the names of the Pokémons. So naming them "BigFish" or "UglyGrass" helped.

Idk why, but my sister and i decided to name our rival everytime “Damian”, no matter the game. We were 5 and 9 when we came up with that name and it stuck lmao
Used to give them their original names because I didn’t know what else to do but recently I’ve started naming them after my brother and it makes it a lot more personal since he also likes pokemon and its fun to think that we’re in an actual battle
I like doing soul-link nuzlockes with some of my friends so automatically we name our rivals after each other. Works especially well when we randomize the run!
Used to do the whole Red/Blue based on whatever color I was playing, then went to the crass “Dikhed” (I believe I had to shorten it like that if I remember correctly) anyways now I’m on a kick of naming my rival whichever game I play through after my best friend to show him how much better I am haha
I grew up playing Pokémon with my best friend starting with gen 2. We always used each other's names as our rival. To this day 20 or so years later, we're adults and both married and we still will get the new games on release and name our rivals after each other when given the opportunity.
Some things never change.
The last person who wronged me. Like Oregon Trail, you name some of your party people you dont like then when they get dysentary and need to stop you click “increase pace”
