When I was reading Red's biography, I notice it mentions that Red went and captured the four legendaries available and thus completed the Pokédex. I have to say where did the info came from, since I did not encounter any references that Red caught all 150 Pokémon in other games. The closest is Origins, but that is an adaptation of the original games. If this is because the player can technically do it, then does that apply to the other protagonists of the main games?

== Red's canon starter == | |||
Blue's page talked about Squirtle being most likely his starter. | |||
But Red was featured with Bulbasaur than any other Pokemon. | |||
In all the artworks, Red/Green Guidebook, Pokemon Generations, all the mangas except one and 4Koma comics. (https://youtu.be/Axo7Ym6ApUk?t=50s) | |||
Pokemon Generations was advertised as "Events from the games" and Red and other protoganists were all mute like in the games, making Generations an accurate adaptation of the games. | |||
Where he was with Charmander only in Origins and the Pokemon Zensho short manga. | |||
While Pokemon Yellow was never adapted into any form of anime or manga, and FRLG were a remakes of RGB and not Yellow. Pikachu has weak evidence for being his starter. | |||
Making Bulbasaur the most likely canon starter. | |||
I think this should be noted in the trivia section. | |||

I disagree. | |||
The whole point of Red using all three Kanto Starters in the game is that he ''doesn't'' have a "definitive" starter. Most adaptations alternate between: 1)Charmander: used in Origins, some episodes of Generations (since Blue has Blastoise in "the challenger"), and I am told a few spin-off manga. | |||
2) Bulbasaur: very early art, adventures Manga, and the first episode of Generations. While the games feature Pikachu as his ace and has a team that references Pokémon Yellow, Blue, at the same time, does ''not'' use his Yellow team. All of this is done in order not to "cut" the branches. While he's indeed associated more with Charizard and Venusaur (which BTW is the only starter that uses a Z-move in Sun and Moon), they aren't his "defenitive" canon choice. | |||

== Character Art == | |||
Should the official art shown at the top of the page, why should it be the S&M art? It differs a lot from the original art from the earlier games. I see why it's the newer art, but I don't think it really fits. {{unsigned|AngelicEspeon}} | |||
:It's Bulbapedia policy to use the most recent available art in the infobox for every character and Pokémon article. The size of a character's role in older games vs. newer games doesn't matter.

== Red's age == | |||
I just to say why would rather put a non-authenticity age than empty of the age. Even we had some [[Hilda|precedents]] and it was not being used for this in the first. (even it is still not being used just use an approximate age range.) {{unsigned|E9310103838}} | |||
:I'll copy-paste what I just wrote on your talk page: | |||
:Sun and Moon's spot in the timeline relies on two main pieces of information. | |||
:* Porygon's SM Pokedex entries say it was created 20 years ago. Since Porygon existed in Gen I, that means there can be no more than a 20-year gap between RBY and SM. | |||
:* Anabel has been in Alola for 10 years. Since she was in Hoenn in Emerald, and since RSE take place at the same time as Gen I, that means there can be no less than a 10-year gap between RBY/RSE and SM. | |||
:Because RBY canon is that Red is 11 in those games, this means in SM he must be 11 plus 10-20 years. Therefore, he's 21-31 in Sun and Moon. [[User:Pumpkinking0192|Pumpkinking0192]] ([[User talk:Pumpkinking0192|talk]]) 17:28, 6 May 2017 (UTC) | |||
::Well, although I still think this is a non-authenticity information, but maybe your argument is justified. And how does his age in B2W2? [[User:E9310103838|E9310103838]] ([[User talk:E9310103838|talk]]) 17:33, 6 May 2017 (UTC) | |||
:::Our accepted timeline, as listed on [[Core series#Timeline]], is that B2W2 and XY are contemporaneous and that SM takes place two years after them. I don't know the actual sources for those claims, but Red's age in B2W2 is derived from that timeline. If you have an issue with that, I think that talk page may be a better place to ask about it than this one. (It certainly wouldn't be a bad thing to spark some discussion about adding cited sources to that article so people don't have to keep having this timeline discussion/edit war over and over.)
