Pokémon Red and Green Versions: Difference between revisions
Undo revision 3373191 by Ajxpk (talk)
(→Trivia: Again, this info is originally from the book "ポケモン・ストーリー" (ISBN-13: 978-4822241995). I already replaced Satoshi Tajiri with "they" because you didn't liked it and translated it carefully keeping this close to the original text. Also keep the information accurate and no speculation, we don't know what would have been different with 7 versions compared to Red & Green.) |

* The game's main characters, {{ga|Red}} and {{ga|Blue|Green}}, have several default names, among them サトシ ''Satoshi'' and シゲル ''Shigeru'', respectively. These names come from Pokémon creator [[Satoshi Tajiri]] and his friend and fellow Nintendo developer, [[Shigeru Miyamoto]]. In the English counterparts Red and Blue, the default names are Red and Blue. Alternative names that could be chosen were {{Ash}} and {{Gary}}, after the anime characters that share the names Satoshi and Shigeru, respectively. | * The game's main characters, {{ga|Red}} and {{ga|Blue|Green}}, have several default names, among them サトシ ''Satoshi'' and シゲル ''Shigeru'', respectively.
