With Nemona in S/V, it actually makes sense. She's already become champion before, but now she's basically doing a New Game + playthrough, making it tougher for herself by picking the weaker starter and trying to help the player develop into a worthy rival for her.

With Hau in the Alola games and Hop in Sw/Sh, they're just morons.

Nah, Gen 7.

Gen 5, both of your rivals took a Starter, and the more "serious" of the two picked the one strong against your Starter.
