Chidori. Some of you really need to read the manga. Chidori is Spatial plus elemental control of Chakra. Rasangan only follows through with the first step. Which one would require more skill? On skill level FRS and Chidori are equal as they both follow through the two steps.

Rasengan is the more difficult technique. Chidori requires Nature transformation alone and requires vast amounts of chakra, whereas Rasengan requires shape transformation. That's why to this day Naruto can't make it with a single hand. He can't handle the shape transformation. There isn't much difference though. They are both A rank techniques which mean the have similar difficulty.

actually no kakashi had chidori long before he got his sharingan it just suffer the drawback of running in a straight line so opponent could easily avoid it.
OT: Rasengan its the highest form of shape transformation.

It was stated that Kakashi tried to complete the rasengan by adding his chakra affinity to it and failed, thus resulting in Chidori.

Rasenshuriken is the only jutsu so far that combines both shape and nature transformation. chidori is just nature transformation it doesnt take a shape. kakashi tried tocombine his nature with rasengan and failed that how he ended up creating chidori.

Wow, guys.
LOVE THE WAY PEOPLE ARE IGNORING THIS POST.
Even Jinton can be considered manipulating your chakra and adding an element to it, but does that make it harder to learn than rasengan?

Rasengan, Obviously.
Rasengan Deals with the roatation, the power, and the stability of the two. Chidori is just channeling Lightning affinity chakra to your hand... the sheer amount of chakra just makes it visible and the high concentration of electricity makes the chirping sound.
At the base level anyway...

no chidori was made by kakashi after he failed to add the nature transformation to the shape.

Rasengan requires more skill for sure.
Rasengan is the pinnacle of shape manipulation. It took Minato years to develop the technique and in the time between Minato's death and Naruto learning Rasengan only Jaraiya and Kakashi were able to learn it. Tsunade, a sannin, believed it only possible for Minato and Jaraiya to be able to learn the rasengan. It is actually so hard to perform that most of the time Naruto needs a clone to perform it, which shows its difficulty.
Chidori requires very little shape manipulation in comparison to the rasengan. The proof of this is that Kakashi was not able to add his lightning element to the more complicated shape manipulation that rasengan has.
With chidori, you also see several people with the lightning element doing the same sorts of things as kakashi does with chidori. This means other people have created similar techniques which means the technique its self is easier to learn naturally. Rasengan has only really had one person who created it (and passed it on) and no one has created anything like it other than the tailed beasts.

See my posts on the first page, Kakashi states that Chidori is both Shape and Elemental manipulation which Naruto himself admitted is much more difficult than the single shape manipulated Rasengan alone.

No chidori uses both shape and nature transformation. Kakashi said so himself

THE RASENGAN
-The Rasengan does not require any hand seals to use, relying only on the chakra control of the user. Once it is complete, it becomes self-sustaining, which does not give the Rasengan a definite limit like the Chidori. The compacted nature and moving speed of the chakra allows the Rasengan to grind into whatever it comes in contact with to inflict major damage. This tends to launch the target spiralling backward after being hit or, if the target is lying on the ground or being launched to the ground, the destructive force is enough to form a crater. In the anime, Naruto was able to throw the Rasengan, making it a mid-range projectile technique. It has been noted a few times that the Rasengan is superior to its counterpart, the Chidori, by Jiraiya, Kakashi Hatake, and even Sasuke Uchiha after seeing the after effects of the Rasengan on a water tower.
The Rasengan was designed to use the caster's elemental affinities. Minato was unable to add his affinities to his Rasengan before he died, while Kakashi Hatake tried to add his lightning element to his Rasengan, but was unable to and explains that he created the Chidori and Lightning Cutter instead, which require a certain point of shape and nature manipulation itself. Naruto was the first to add his wind affinity to his Rasengan to create the Wind Release: Rasengan, and even advanced it up to the point that he could create the far more powerful and destructive version, Wind Release: Rasenshuriken.
THE CHIDORI
-This technique has a major drawback, however. The speed at which the attack must be done, combined with the fact that the user must run in a straight line, causes a tunnel vision-like effect for the user. This allows the enemy to easily counter the attack, making it a potentially lethal move for the user. Though this drawback would seem to make learning the technique fairly pointless, Sasuke and Kakashi are able to avoid the drawback because of their Sharingan, which takes in every detail, regardless of how fast the user is moving.
As an additional drawback, the large amount of chakra required limits the number of times this technique can be performed per day. In Part I, Sasuke can only use it twice a day (under his own power) and Kakashi can use it four times, though their limits have been shown to have increased to an unspecified level in Part II. Should the user attempt to go beyond their limit, all of their chakra will be drained and their very life force could go along with it.
An additional problem, though not necessarily a debilitating one, is the fact that the large amount of chakra can also injure the user's hand if they put too much force into the attack. In Part I, Sasuke does this when confronting his brother Itachi, causing some of the skin to peel from his hand and leaving it slightly smouldering after the attack was finished.
My conclusion is that the Rasengan is the overall better Jutsu. My reason is because of how versatile it is. Learning the Chidori is pointless unless you poses a sharingan. Anyone can preform the Rasegan with the sufficent amount of training (Konohamaru).
