:One other thing. That might not be definitely confirmable, but something that is much more definite is that of Lass Alexandra and Ace Trainer Jirard- likely references to Jirard Khalil (The Completionist) and Alex Faciane- also known as the Super Beard Bros. This is not simply conjecture; the Pokémon utilised primarily in their dual playthrough of Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen were, respectively, of the Dratini and Clefairy line- even being in their video thumbnails. With the similar naming of Arin, Danny, and Ross- alongside, albeit in a much less concrete manner, the Growlithe line (this is pure conjecture, however it fits a pattern) being named Austin and Satch (possibly to reference other YouTube content creators Austin "PeanutButterGamer" Hargrave and Satchell "Satchbag" Drakes, both at some time members of the NormalBoots group. All of these creators have collaborated with each other, so it's not just a mixed bag of references- it's a specific group of YouTube creators). There's a lot there, and I'm not completely sure it can even be called inconclusive at the moment. It's not the first time Pokémon games have alluded to fan creations- Interviewers Roxy & Oli were references to a Let's Play on the SomethingAwful Forums, frequented by Nob Ogasarawa, a translator for the games. It's no stretch to say that there may have been a member of the translation team that intended these references to occur. Whether it deserves to be put on the article is not my decision.
