*Blue and {{adv|Green}} 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). This name change is present in both the [[VIZ Media]] and [[Chuang Yi]] translations. His {{ga|Blue|game counterpart}} is also named Blue in the English translation of [[Generation II]]'s games. | *Blue and {{adv|Green}} are the only main Pokémon Adventures characters whose names were changed for the English translation.

** A panel in the original VIZ printing of [[Pokémon Adventures volume 3|volume 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 "[[The Best of Pokémon Adventures#Red volume|Best of Pokémon Adventures]]" compilation volume, but was corrected for the 2009 second edition. | ** A panel in the original VIZ printing of [[Pokémon Adventures volume 3|volume 3]] forgets to make this change, however.

* Although {{adv|Silver}} is the Pokedex holder whose special skill is Pokemon trading, Blue tops out the roster amongst the Dex Holders with 4 Pokemon that have evolved via trade, his Alakazam (albeit caught whilst fully evolved), Porygon2, Scizor, and Machamp. Additionally, both his Rhydon and Porygon2 are capable of evolving another time with trade, and he has personally asked of Silver to research on the matter as he found out Rhydon could evolve a second time in Giovanni's book ''The Mysteries of the Earth''. Meanwhile, the most Pokemon evolving via trade owned by other protagonists are one Pokemon, Gold's [[Politoed]], Silver's [[Kingdra]], and Yellow's [[Golem]] (which, contrary to normal belief, was able to evolve without trading). | |||
