I never understood this
Bianca is top notch. She acted that way so kids wouldn't suspect a damn thing.

It's just like real life.
She just picked Pokemon she liked, she didn't know they were good.
Cheren's a memelord who insists on using his unique strategies
>>27856223
I realized that and it surprises me they did that.
>>27856223
I really like in BW2 Cheren essentially is doing his own mono type run
>>27856223
One had confidence, the other did not. Also, Bianca was seeking the adventure over the end goal, and constantly compares her skill to the main character's with Pokémon battling.
>>27856223
I always found it funny how dialogue kept telling me Bianca isn't as good as Cheren when she was obviously the stronger trainer.

Cheren used held items, you dips. He was clearly the more competent trainer.
>>27858082
Held items do nothing when you can't even build a decent team.
>shitmons from the first route
Why do rivals do this
>>27858166
It's supposed to create a sense of progression. For example, if Gary's Pidgeotto kicks your ass near Celedon, you remember it when he uses it as a Pidgeot at the end of the game.
>>27858108
Bullshit. A team of shitmons with items is more formidable than a team of good pokemon without them. Especially in game.
