>>21396824>How come HGSS changed our notions that Ethan and Lyra were named "Gold" and "Kris,"They didn't. The male protagonist was never named in GSC and the female protagonist from Crystal is called Marina, and replaced (not renamed) by Lyra in HGSS.
>but maintained the bullshit that the RBY hero and rival were named Red and Green/Blue?Because the male protagonist of the main Kanto games is called Red (originally Satoshi) and his rival is called Green in Japan and Blue overseas.
>And what the fuck is up with a girl named "Leaf," anyway? Blue or Leaf, it's still fucking stupid to name a girl that.Her name is Blue in Japan and Green overseas, Leaf is not and never was her name.
>The Johto rival is still popularly named Silver.It's still an unofficial name. The closest official moniker for him is Passerby Boy or Giovanni's son.
