I have been seeing some videos of bw2 in youtube and I saw that you can name your rival before starting your adventure.Can you actually do that?
Hugh is the player's rival in Black 2 and White 2. He is from Aspertia City, like the player characters, and is also seeking to become a Pokémon Master. Throughout the game, the player helps Hugh retrieve his sister's Purrloin which was stolen by Team Plasma. "Hugh" is the default name option, but the player can pick a custom name
