Wally

Wally is a character that appears in Ruby, Sapphire, Emerald, Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire. He is the player's main rival during the course of the gameplay.

Appearance
Wally is a young, slightly small for his age, skinny and frail boy with messy green hair that sticks up, pale skin, and bluish grey eyes. In R/S/E, he wears a white button-up long sleeved shirt with pale blue buttons, khaki green, slightly baggy trousers that are similar to the colour of his hair, and slip on shoes that are a pastel blue colour with white soles.

In OR/AS, Wally wears a white shirt with a big collar under a pastel blue jacket with large buttons, grey slim fit trousers with turn ups on the ankles, and slip on shoes that are white with pastel blue soles. He also wears a brown shoulder bag, and a Mega Pendant around his neck.

Personality
Wally has a kind, calm, gentle, shy and passive personality. Unlike most of the other Pokémon game rivals such as Blue, Silver, and Barry, who often taunt the player and love to show off, Wally doesn't. He is more shy and cautious with the things he does, and is extremely humble. He is frail and sickly, but despite this, he tries to be brave. When he catches his first Pokémon, Ralts, he begins to gain an inner strength and confidence that builds within him throughout the game. Later, he becomes quite the powerful and skilled trainer, who challenges the player just before they exit Victory Road.

Ruby, Sapphire & Emerald
The player first meets Wally at the Petalburg Gym talking to Norman about how to catch his first Pokémon. The player then proceeds to help him catch a Ralts after which he leaves and goes to Verdanturf Town. You next meet Wally at Mauville City in front of the Gym where he is talking to his uncle about challenging his first gym. His uncle is skeptical but Wally insists that he could beat one because he and his Pokémon have grown stronger. Then Wally notices you and asks for a Pokémon battle to prove his skill to his uncle. The last time the player sees Wally is in Victory Road between Ever Grande City and the Pokémon League, and he will have caught and trained more Pokémon and asks for another battle. After losing the battle, he will remain there for the rest of the game.

Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire
Most of the time, the player meets Wally on the same places as in the previous games, Ruby, Sapphire & Emerald. However, Wally is able to Mega Evolve his Gallade when encountering him at the Victory Route.
