>>49850961Yes but gen 2 was also the game that established "red" and "blue" as actual character names its pretty clear that was their intent at that point.
The protag is Silver, Kris or Gold; whichever game you bought is your protagonist. Always bemused me they kinda shot themselves in the foot with no way to make Reds name modular(he was treated the same in manuals) but that was the clear idea.
Which is still a name, its just an unstable one.
And no Lyra isn't Kris, she's less valid than Ethan is. As they clearly threw her out and made a new character for whatever reason.
