From a programming standpoint, I have no idea why such a concept would be thrown out.  All it would take would be one extra boolean variable, 2 extra sets of sprites (one for the girl and the other for the girl on a bike), and 2 battle sprites (her back view and her as the opponent).  It's nothing the game wouldn't have been able to handle, seeing as there's so much extra stuff in Pokémon Yellow Version that obviously takes up more space than a playable female character would.  The only reason to not include something like that would be due to complete laziness in not wanting to draw an extra few sprites.

:If it was that easy we probably would have gotten the girl female player in GS rather than in Crystal, since Kris would likely have been designed by then. It's true that the girl in that artwork might not have been meant to be a female PC, but since she's shown with the male PC and rival, I'm not sure what else she could have been. Why have art with two important characters and some random other person? [[User:Yamiidenryuu|Yamiidenryuu]] 22:17, 16 March 2012 (UTC)

That piece of art isn't the only one with her in it, either- there's a comic somewhere around here with those three characters. Not sure what happened to it, though.
