'''Green''' (Japanese: '''ブルー''' ''Blue'') is a main character in the {{pkmn|manga}} series [[Pokémon Adventures]].

As a young child, she was kidnapped by {{p|Ho-Oh}} and raised by the evil [[Masked Man]], where she met and became close with {{adv|Silver}}. This kidnapping led to her {{wp|ornithophobia}}, which she manages to cure herself of in the {{chap|Gold, Silver & Crystal}}. The two of them managed to escape and began plotting against the Masked Man to take him down for good.

The original Green was designed after the early sketches for a {{tc|Lass}} and {{DL|Pokémon Red and Green beta|Female player character|a female protagonist}} shown in early concept art for {{game|Red and Green|s}}. When a female player character from Kanto finally appeared in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, Green changed her clothes to match {{ga|Leaf}}’s in-game appearance.  

Green’s special skill, as described by Professor Oak, is the knowledge of Pokémon Evolution, a skill she learned from her time as a Masked Child. For these skills, she is known as the "'''[[Evolution|Evolver]]'''" (化える者 ''Evolver'').

===Background===

A native of [[Pallet Town]], Green was kidnapped by a {{p|Ho-Oh|bird Pokémon}} when she was only five years old (six years prior to the first chapter), on the orders of the Masked Man. She was taken to a secret hideout and was trained with several other Masked Children. There, she met {{adv|Silver}} and learned about Evolution. Eventually, they managed to escape into freedom. Green spent years traveling alone until she discovered she was from [[Pallet Town]], where {{adv|Red|two}} {{adv|Blue|boys}} her age had each received a starter Pokémon, a [[Pokédex]], and set out on a journey. Frustrated, she broke into Professor Oak's laboratory and stole a {{p|Squirtle}}.

She continues on through the building by disguising herself as Sabrina and encounters Red with the Pokémon Badge Energy Amplifier. She lies to Red how it works by stating that it powers a Pokémon's strength, when it's really made to create a new Pokémon entirely. She trades the Marsh Badge she stole from Sabrina for Red's {{evostone|Moon Stone}}. When Sabrina finds them, Red attempts to use the Amplifier to power up [[Pika]], only for it not to work since the two Badges Green returned to him earlier were actually fakes. She takes the Amplifier and leaves Red at Sabrina's mercy.

 

While the others are busy, Green puts the two remaining Badges in the Amplifier, which activates and fusing {{p|Articuno}}, {{p|Zapdos}}, and {{p|Moltres}} into [[Thu-Fi-Zer]]. Seeing Thu-Fi-Zer causes Green to faint from shock, forcing Red to protect her while she's unconscious. In her stead, he uses the Moon Stone he traded with her to evolve her {{p|Clefairy|Clefy}} into {{p|Clefable}}. Clefy manages to damage Thu-Fi-Zer, but not enough to defeat it. Green eventually wakes up and helps defeat the bird Pokémon with a combination attack between [[Blasty]], {{TP|Blue|Charizard}}, and [[Saur]]. Thu-Fi-Zer is separated back into Articuno, Zapdos, and Moltres, who fly away back to the wild. After the battle had ended, Green avoids celebrating with her allies since Blue's grandfather, {{adv|Professor Oak}} is there with them.

==={{chap|Yellow}}===

[[File:Green Y chapter.png|thumb|right|150px|Green in the second chapter]]

Green makes her first appearance in the second chapter listening in on the battle between {{adv|Yellow}} and [[Lorelei]]. She berates Yellow for ignoring her orders to not give away her name to the enemies, but also notes that it probably would not have stayed a secret for long anyway. After Yellow and {{adv|Bill}} manage to escape Lorelei, Green steps in and prevents Lorelei from tracking them. She then disappears before being spotted.

==={{chap|Gold, Silver & Crystal}}===

[[File:Green GSC chapter.png|thumb|left|150px|Green in the third chapter]]

Green appears in the third chapter as a major supporting character. In her first appearances, she is only mentioned by Silver, who describes their past kidnapping at the hands of the [[Masked Man]]. She makes her first appearance in person in ''[[PS162|Heckled by Hitmontop]]'', where she has Silver {{m|Teleport}}ed away so that he would be safe and not have to be involved with the final battle against the Masked Man.

She then travels to the [[Ilex Forest]] to prevent the Masked Man from capturing {{p|Celebi}}. There, she is attacked by [[Will]] and [[Karen]], fellow Masked Children who use Ho-Oh and a captive Silver to defeat Green by using her past against. After reconciling with Silver, Green manages to overcome her childhood trauma and reveals that captured Articuno, Zapdos, and Moltres. Together with Red and Blue, Green uses the birds to free Ho-Oh and Lugia from the Masked Man's control. With Will and Karen defeated, Green, Red, and Blue join up with the other Pokédex holders to defeat the Masked Man once and for all.

She helps combat the Masked Man's ice dolls while {{adv|Gold}}, Silver, and {{adv|Crystal}} personally battle the Masked Man in the Crack in Time. Once they are defeated, Green and the other Pokédex holders help Gold destroy the [[GS Ball]], freeing Celebi from the Masked Man's control and defeating him once and for all.

==={{chap|FireRed & LeafGreen}}===

In the fifth chapter, Green wears a change of clothing that she received from Silver. After some searching, Green has made it her mission to meet up with her long-lost parents, who she found are now living in the [[Sevii Islands]]. While on the [[Seagallop|boat]] traveling to {{OBP|One Island|town}}, she is attacked by an {{p|Deoxys|invisible Pokémon}}, who attempts to suck her into a black hole. When her parents see this, they rush over to meet their daughter and are accidentally sucked into the black hole instead. Shocked from seeing this, Green falls into a brief coma after Red and Blue come to rescue her.

After traveling back to Kanto, Green helps stop the Team Rocket battleship from crashing into Vermilion City. Although Team Rocket is defeated and Deoxys freed from their control, [[Sird]], of the Three Beasts, attempts to recapture it. Green, Red, Blue, Silver, Yellow, and Mewtwo all jump in the way of Sird's attempt, but are turned into stone in the process.

Two months after the events of the fifth chapter, Professor Oak has been frantically searching for a way to free the petrified Pokédex holders. He manages to discover the mythical wish-granting Pokémon, {{p|Jirachi}}, who is going to awaken at the site of the Hoenn Battle Frontier. After getting permission from [[Scott]], Green and the other Pokédex holders are shipped to the Battle Frontier while {{adv|Emerald}} searches for Jirachi.

At the end of the sixth chapter, Emerald manages to convince Jirachi to free Green and the others from their stone prison. Along with the other nine Pokédex holders, Green defeats [[Guile Hideout]], who used Jirachi's power for his own gains. At the end of the chapter, she competes in a tournament against her friends held in the Battle Dome. Although her final ranking is unknown despite eventually losing at some point, Crystal states that her first opponent was Green, who defeated her.

[[File:Green HeartGold SoulSilver chapter.png|thumb|left|150px|Green in the ninth chapter]]

In ''[[PS445|Dealing With A Koffing Fit]]'', Silver reveals that Green was the one that gave him the {{DL|Evolutionary stone|Dusk Stone}} and {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|Razor Claw}}, which later allowed his {{p|Murkrow}} and {{p|Sneasel}} evolve into {{p|Honchkrow}} and {{TP|Silver|Weavile}}, respectively.

==={{chap|Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire}}===

In the thirteenth chapter, Red gets a call from Bill, who informs him that the Ruby and Sapphire shards that were taken from Team Rocket have begun transforming into [[Colored orbs|Orbs]]. Fearing something may happen, Bill asks Red to come over to help him with the shards. Due to Blue being in another region, Red decides to ask Green to go with him. When Green, Red, and Daisy arrive at Bill's cottage, they find that Bill has been attacked. Bill reveals that two men attacked him and stole the Orbs and his boat. Green and Red leave Bill in Daisy's care while they use a tracking device to find the thieves.

They travel to the Hoenn region and catch up with the thieves, who are revealed to be [[Maxie]] and [[Archie]]. Overhearing their plans to use the Orbs for some purpose, Green and Red battle Maxie and Archie to avenge their injured friend and take the Orbs back. When Maxie and Archie start the battle by using [[Mega Evolution]] to power up their Pokémon, Green and Red counter by using their own Mega-Evolved Pokémon. Green and Red eventually manage to defeat their opponents, but are startled by the appearance of {{p|Groudon}} and {{p|Kyogre}}.

Maxie and Archie use the Orbs to revert Groudon and Kyogre into their [[Primal Reversion|Primal]] forms. With its increased power Groudon easily defeats Green and Red by smashing them under a pile of rubble.

In the original version, most of Green's Pokémon nicknames are derived from the species' Japanese name, followed by a Japanese honorific. The exceptions are Jiggly and Granbull.

In the Chuang Yi translation, most of Green's Pokémon nicknames are derived from the species' English name with an -y at the end. The exceptions are Jiggly and Granbull, who don't have nicknames.

|epnum=PS174

|epname=The Last Battle VIII

|desc=Green caught these three Pokémon to overcome her fear of birds. She then loaned {{p|Zapdos}} to {{adv|Blue}}, {{p|Articuno}} to {{adv|Red}}, and used {{p|Moltres}} herself in order to fight {{p|Lugia}} and {{p|Ho-Oh}}. They have not been seen since.

 

 

In their [[Thu-Fi-Zer|merged form]], they also used {{m|Thunder}}, {{m|Fire Spin}}, {{m|Blizzard}}, {{m|Gust}}, and {{m|Sky Attack}}, though whether they possess these moves individually is unknown.}}

|desc=This {{p|Horsea}} ('''タッちゃん''' ''Tat-chan'') was initially {{adv|Silver}}'s, but after the two of them escaped the [[Masked Man]], he gave her Horsea and she gave him Snubbull (which she took back prior to the battle on [[Cerise Island]]). Sometime after the {{chap|Yellow}}, she gave Horsea back. It has since evolved into a {{p|Kingdra}} and become a staple member of Silver's team.

Horsea's only known move under Green's ownership was {{m|SmokeScreen}}.}}

* Green and {{adv|Blue}} are the only main Pokémon Adventures characters whose names were changed for the English translation. This is due to the complexity of [[Generation I]]’s game releases, where in Japan, Red Version was paired with Green Version (leaving Blue as the third), and in the rest of the world Red was paired with Blue (while there was no Green). Since she was not {{adv|Red}}’s rival, the translators did not see it fitting that she have her name be that of Red’s "rival version". This name change is present in both the VIZ Media and Chuang Yi translations. Later, [[Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen]] would be released as remakes of the original Pokémon Red and Blue/Green, and unlike the original games, the remakes would feature a playable female character which Green is based on.

** A panel in the original VIZ printing of {{PAV|3}} forgets to make this change, however. When the Pokémon League scoreboard is shown, Red’s rival is identified as “GREEN” and Green is identified as “BLUE”. This error was still present in the compilation volume [[The Best of Pokémon Adventures: Red]], but was corrected for the 2009 second edition.
