Since having both a male and female player character became a staple for the series from then on, most player characters have been adapted into [[Pokédex holder]]s who are named after the first two paired games in a [[generation]], with the male player character being named after the first game of the pair and the female player character being named after the second game of the pair. For example, {{adv|Ruby}} is a counterpart to {{ga|Brendan}} and {{adv|Sapphire}} is a counterpart to {{ga|May}}, the protagonists of {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}. The one exception to this is {{ga|Lucas}} and {{ga|Dawn}}, the player characters of the [[Sinnoh]]-based games. {{adv|Diamond}} is a counterpart to Lucas, but the name {{adv|Pearl}} was given to {{ga|Barry}}'s counterpart. Dawn's counterpart goes deliberately unnamed for the first few volumes of the {{MangaArc|Diamond & Pearl}}, only being revealed in ''[[PS376|Startling Staraptor]]'' to be {{adv|Platinum}}, after the name of the third version was known to the public. Additionally, despite not being introduced in the first paired games of a generation, {{ga|Nate}} and {{ga|Rosa}} received counterparts in the form of {{adv|Blake}} and {{adv|Whitley}}, respectively. | Since having both a male and female player character became a staple for the series from then on, most player characters have been adapted into [[Pokédex holder]]s who are named after the first two paired games in a [[generation]], with the male player character being named after the first game of the pair and the female player character being named after the second game of the pair.
