>>43844425I suppose one could argue Crystal is the definitive gen 2 title, and with Kris being a Crystal mascot along with Suicune, she, and by extension Lyra, could be the Johto protagonist. I believe in LGPE Sabrina mentions an unspecified trainer 3 years from then, leaving it either way intentionally.
Obviously the counterargument to this is that none of it matters since you can be Gold/Ethan in all 3 games anyhow and who the fuck cares.
