'''Main | '''Main rival:''' The primary rival of a series, and usually remain undefeated against Ash in traditional battles up until the major tournament of the series.

However, with a few episodes left before the [[Ever Grande Conference]] competition begins, Ash and his friends meet Morrison, a Trainer who begins a friendship and a brief rivalry with Ash. | |||

Ash's rivals
Note: This page is under development, feel free to increase it in some detail.
During the course of the anime, many characters have appeared in opposition to Ash. Similar to games in virtually every region Ash meets a new rival and battle it several times during the course of the region. Often an anime establishes three types of rivals in these areas:
Main rival: The primary rival of a series, and usually remain undefeated against Ash in traditional battles up until the major tournament of the series. During the first few series, many of them had antagonistic relationships with Ash; however, starting with Pokémon the Series: XY, they became more friendly in nature.
Secondary rival: A character who is not the main rival of a series, but nonetheless develops a competitive rivalry with Ash during the course of it which are generally friendly in nature. While Ash usually maintains an edge against them in battle, they may be able to defeat him on occasion.
League rival: A character who first meets Ash at some point after the latter has fulfilled the requirements to compete in a Pokémon League Conference, which is usually either during or shortly before the beginning of the arc. These rivals are the most likely to eliminate Ash from the tournament.

Continuing with Ash's journey through the Hoenn region, Pokémon the Series: Ruby and Sapphire never established a recurring rival for Ash, instead Ash clashed with a few characters occasionally. However, with a few episodes left before the Ever Grande Conference competition begins, Ash and his friends meet Morrison, a Trainer who begins a friendship and a brief rivalry with Ash.

Paul
- Main article: Paul
Paul is an experienced Trainer from Veilstone City. Much of his rivalry with Ash was due to a disagreement over which Pokémon training method was correct. While Paul would focus on strengthening his Pokémon through heavy training sessions, Ash believed that developing a bond with his Pokémon was the best way to achieve good results. This caused many confusing arguments between them throughout the series.
Paul is also the original Trainer of Ash's Infernape, who was released when it was a Chimchar after failing to meet Paul's expectations during the Hearthome City Tag Battle Competition.
Despite his first Pokémon being a Turtwig, which evolved into a Torterra before its introduction, Paul's main Pokémon is an Electivire that he trained since it was an Elekid and was used in the last battle against Ash in the Lily of the Valley Conference.

Trip
- Main article: Trip
Trip is the main rival of Best Wishes, despite being a rookie trainer, he defeats Ash's Pikachu in his first battle, much of this is due to the effect caused by Zekrom into Pikachu.
