*[[Trip]] was Ash's main rival in ''[[Pokémon the Series: Black & White]]''. The rivalry formed when Trip found out that Ash was from Kanto, a region of which Trip thinks very little.  Trip believed Ash to be a redneck from the boonies who needed to go back to the basics of Pokémon, causing a heated rivalry. However, they were shown to respect each other to some extent in various episodes. Like with Gary and Paul, the two settled their differences when Ash beat Trip at the [[Vertress Conference]].

*{{an|Gladion}} was Ash's main rival in ''[[Pokémon the Series: Sun & Moon]]''. Ash and Gladion's rivalry was mutually respectful from the start, with Gladion recognizing Ash's strength almost immediately. Gladion eventually became more dedicated to surpassing Ash after witnessing his and his Pikachu's aptitude for [[Z-Move]]s, leading him to undertake the [[island challenge]]. Though Gladion is much calmer than Ash, he and Ash both share a deep, internal passion for intense battling.
