Wally is the young green-haired boy you first meet in Petalburg City where you help him catch a Ralts.

He is one of the game’s two rivals, and he reappears several times throughout the story. You’ll battle him twice in the main story, but you can rematch him multiple times in the post-game.

After you beat the Elite four, you’ll unlock the post-game Wally rematch at the Battle Resort. At this point he will have one of the strongest teams of any NPC in the game.
