===Character and role=== | |||
====Pokémon Crystal==== | |||
[[File:Kris Opening Crystal.png|thumb|left|Kris in the beginning of Pokémon Crystal]] | |||
Kris is a young girl from [[New Bark Town]], who is initially introduced to the world of Pokémon by Professor Oak. Her journey as a [[Pokémon Trainer]] begins when [[Professor Elm]] asks [[Mom (Johto)|Kris's mother]] to forward an errand to her, which is to help raise a Pokémon that he recently caught in order to aid with his research.<ref name=ElmStarters>''"I was wondering if you could help me with it, KRIS. You see... I'm writing a paper to present at a conference. But there are some things I don't quite understand yet. So! I'd like you to raise a POKéMON that I recently caught."''</ref> In the midst of their conversation, he receives an e-mail from a man named Mr. Pokémon, though Elm mentions that he's too busy to go himself. He suggests that Kris goes in his stead, presenting her with three Pokémon that could be her [[first partner Pokémon]]: {{p|Cyndaquil}}, {{p|Totodile}}, or {{p|Chikorita}}. He registers his phone number in the [[Pokégear]] that was given to Kris by her mom before leaving her house. | |||
When arriving at Mr. Pokémon's house, he presents her with the [[Mystery Egg]], which was given to Mr. Pokémon by a couple who run a Pokémon Day-Care service. [[Professor Oak]] heard that Kris was running an errand for Elm, so he waited at Mr. Pokémon's house to meet her. Deeming that Kris seemed like a dependable person, he entrusts her with the latest version of his Pokédex, in order to properly catalogue and document Pokémon on her journey. Immediately after she departs, Professor Elm gives her a phonecall to tell her that something terrible has happened, and to get back to the laboratory as soon as possible. Upon returning to Cherrygrove City, she is stopped by a red-haired boy, who points out that she got a Pokémon from the lab, though seems weak. After introducing himself, he challenges Kris to her first battle with a Pokémon Trainer, bolting off after his defeat. As Kris returns to Elm's lab at New Bark Town, she is stopped by a police officer that explains the red-haired boy was the one that stole one of Professor Elm's Pokémon, and prompts her for the boy's name that he introduced himself with. This boy is {{ga|Silver}}, which the game states is her rival. | |||
[[File:Kris Silver Cherrygrove Crystal.png|thumb|Kris encountering Silver for the first time]] | |||
Professor Elm is shocked by both Mr. Pokémon's discovery of the Mystery Egg, as well as Professor Oak's choice to entrust Kris with a Pokédex. He suggests she takes on the [[Johto League]] in order to become Champion, though notes that it is a long one, and that she should talk to her Mom before leaving. Upon reaching [[Violet City]], Kris must defeat the Gym Leader in order to leave southwards to {{rt|32|Johto}}. The city also presents Kris with the opportunity to climb the [[Sprout Tower]]. If she does so, she can overhear Silver being chastised by Sage Li, the final opponent of the tower. He reprimands Silver for using his Pokémon as if they were tools of war, though Silver asserts to both Li and Kris that he only intends to use strong Pokémon, and that he won't lose to those that wish to befriend them. After Kris defeats the Violet City [[Gym Leader]], [[Falkner]], she can talk to an aide of Professor Elm in the city's Pokémon Center. He tells her that the {{pkmn|Egg}} discovered by Mr. Pokémon will hatch when in the presence of other Pokémon, and that Kris is the only person they can rely on to do so. A group of shady individuals prevent Kris from entering the [[Azalea Gym]] or the [[Slowpoke Well]] east of [[Azalea Town|the town]]. A local artisan named [[Kurt]] offers to create Kris some special Poké Balls, but says that it will have to wait, due to the presence of [[Team Rocket]] in the town; a sinister organization that disbanded three years prior to the events of the game. After catching wind that the group are cutting off the [[Slowpoke Tail|tails]] of {{p|Slowpoke}}, he rushes past Kris to deal with the gang himself. The grunt guarding the top of the well takes off when confronted by Kurt, though Kris must now deal with the rest of the group herself, as Kurt is pained from tumbling down the well just moments ago. After she clears out the gang, Kurt escorts her out of the well, offering her a [[Lure Ball]] when talked to again, with subsequent interactions prompting him to craft special Poké Balls across the span of a day, given Kris provides him with the Apricorns to make them. | |||
Clearing out the gang also allows her to enter the Azalea Gym to defeat [[Bugsy]], though Silver will stop Kris if she attempts to head west to the [[Ilex Forest]]. Before they battle, Silver doesn't believe that she defeated Team Rocket at the Slowpoke Well, though upon his defeat states that she only beat him because his own Pokémon were weak. He voices his detest of Team Rocket, warning Kris to stay out of his way, citing her as a distraction. After helping to herd a {{p|Farfetch'd}} in the forest, she's soon able to progress in her journey to [[Goldenrod City]], where she must face [[Whitney]], the [[Goldenrod Gym]] leader. Although Kris makes Whitney cry for a short while upon her defeat, she is eventually handed the {{badge|Plain}}. Kris may also borrow a Bicycle from a new branch of [[Miracle Cycle]] in Goldenrod to help aid with their poor sales, where she is allowed to keep the [[Bike]] indefinitely soon thereafter. Kris must talk to a lady named Floria who stands near a strange tree blocking the way on Route 36, who, after following her back to Goldenrod's [[Flower Shop]], will prompt her sister to give Kris the [[Squirt Bottle]], provided that she has defeated Whitney. This allows Kris to progress northward, deal with {{p|Sudowoodo|the tree}} blocking the path, and head to Ecruteak City. | |||
[[File:Kris Legendary Beasts Crystal.png|thumb|left|Kris meeting the Legendary beasts at the Burned Tower]] | |||
If she visits the Pokémon Center there she'll bump into [[Bill]], a Pokémon researcher that informs Kris about his newest invention, the [[Time Capsule]]. In order to defeat the [[Ecruteak City]] Gym Leader, [[Morty]], Kris must enter the heart of the [[Burned Tower]], where she runs into Silver. He battles her out of frustration that there are no [[Legendary Pokémon]] at the tower, chastising her after the floor collapses underneath Kris following her battle. It is underground that she discovers the three [[Legendary beasts]] lying dormant: {{p|Raikou}}, {{p|Entei}} and {{p|Suicune}}, the final of the three stopping in front of Kris before all escaping the basement of the tower. She is stopped by a man named [[Eusine]] on the way upwards, who dug a hole to get to the basement floor. He thanks her for allowing him to see Suicune with his own eyes after ten years of searching, and vows to chase it across the region in hopes of meeting it again someday. | |||
Kris may head westwards to [[Olivine City|Olivine]] and later [[Cianwood City]] in order to heal the {{p|Ampharos}} atop the [[Olivine Lighthouse]], as well as defeating the Gym Leaders, [[Chuck]] and [[Jasmine]]. Silver appears again in Olivine City to criticize Jasmine's choice to care for the sick Ampharos, telling Kris that a Pokémon who can't fight is worthless. Kris may also head eastwards to take on [[Pryce]] of the [[Mahogany Gym]], but is barred from doing so until a [[Red Gyarados]] at the [[Lake of Rage]] has been calmed. After she calms the rampaging Gyarados, she meets a trainer named [[Lance]], who asks for her co-operation in investigating why the {{p|Magikarp}} in the lake were being forced to evolve. She witnesses Lance attack the clerk of an unassuming shop within [[Mahogany Town]], where he prompts her to follow him past a hidden staircase, leading to Team Rocket's HQ. Here she encounters Silver, who tells her that he tried to battle Lance and was absolutely demolished, where he further berated the boy for his callous approach to training Pokémon. After Kris and Lance defeat the executives at the HQ and free the {{p|Electrode}} powering the radio waves causing trouble in the area, Kris must then put a stop to Team Rocket's takeover at the [[Goldenrod Radio Tower]], where they attempt to leverage the radio system in order to plead their previous leader, [[Giovanni]], to return. In doing so, Kris is stopped yet again by Silver, admitting he was tailing her so he could defeat Team Rocket himself. Following his defeat, Silver acknowledges Lance's harsh words to him at the Rocket HQ and leaves, vowing to continue his dream of becoming the strongest Pokémon Trainer. This leaves it up to Kris to defeat the executives at the top of the tower, effectively disbanding the organization for the final time. | |||
[[File:Kris Lance Crystal.png|thumb|Kris about to battle Lance]] | |||
After defeating Team Rocket once and for all atop the Radio Tower, the director will give Kris the [[Clear Bell]]. Initially stopped by a Sage that moves to block her entry, this allows Kris to visit the Ecruteak City Barrier Station. Three sages known as the '''Wise Trio''' will battle Kris in succession to test her worthiness, before allowing her to progress to the [[Tin Tower]]. {{p|Raikou}}, {{p|Entei}} and {{p|Suicune}} wait at the base of the tower, where the first two will immediately leave to [[Roaming Pokémon|roam the Johto region]] upon Kris' arrival. Suicune will then immediately confront her with a battle, though it may be spotted in other areas prior to this, such as Cianwood City or Route 36, jumping away whenever interacted with. After all three have been caught, and provided Kris has been registered in the Hall of Fame, a Sage in the Tin Tower will entrust her with the [[Rainbow Wing]], allowing Kris to face {{p|Ho-Oh}} on the roof. | |||
With the threat of Team Rocket gone, [[Clair]] has returned from her training at the [[Dragon's Den]] to stand as the final Gym Leader for Kris to face at the [[Blackthorn Gym]], though her victory is prevented due to Clair's insistence that Kris must travel to the inside of the Den in order to prove her worth. After Kris clears the test set by those at the heart of the Dragon's Den, Clair begrudgingly presents her with the {{badge|Rising}}, allowing Kris full access to take on the Pokémon League east of New Bark Town and past Victory Road. There she meets Silver for one final battle, who tells her to keep at it upon his defeat, fully recognizing the words that Lance had told him prior. Facing down [[Will]], [[Koga]], [[Bruno]], and [[Karen]] of the Johto [[Elite Four]], Kris once again encounters Lance, who reveals himself to be the {{pkmn|Champion}} of the Johto [[region]]. Fully expecting her to arrive, they do battle, where Kris triumphs and immortalizes her victory in the Hall of Fame; though not before being congratulated by [[Professor Oak]] and [[DJ Mary]]. | |||
[[File:Misty's Date.png|thumb|left|Kris interrupting Misty's date in Pokémon Crystal]] | |||
Upon being declared the Pokémon League Champion, Elm calls Kris to meet him at the lab. He presents her with an [[S.S. Ticket|ticket]] to ride the [[S.S. Aqua]], a boat that travels between Olivine City in the Johto region, and [[Vermilion City]] in the [[Kanto]] region. On the cruise, a [[gentleman]] bumps into Kris and pleads with her to help find his missing granddaughter, who he has lost on the boat. Upon finding her in the captain's quarters, Kris brings the girl back to her grandfather, who thanks her by giving Kris a [[Metal Coat]], right as the boat docks in Vermilion City. With a {{p|Snorlax}} blocking the way to [[Diglett's Cave]] in the east, Kris' next objective is to defeat the [[Vermilion Gym]] and it's leader, [[Lt. Surge]], who is easier to get to than usual due to a large power outage. This is as a result of a thief that stole a crucial [[Machine Part]] for a generator in the [[Kanto Power Plant]]. When Kris is told of this, she encounters the thief at the [[Cerulean Gym]], a lone Team Rocket Grunt from a different region that challenges her on the {{rt|24|Kanto|Nugget Bridge}}, who disappears upon hearing that the group has been disbanded. Learning that the Machine Part is in the water of the [[Cerulean City]] Gym, Kris retrieves it for the team at the Power Plant, where the manager thanks her by giving Kris his {{TM|07|Zap Cannon}}. | |||
Now that electricity has been restored to the region, Kris can enter the Radio Tower found in [[Lavender Town]] to obtain the {{DLPokégear|Radio|EXPN Card}}, where she can tune into Kanto's radio frequencies on her Pokégear. One of these allows her to wake up the Snorlax in front of Diglett's Cave, facilitating passage to the rest of Kanto. This act also enables Kris to board the now in-service [[Magnet Train]] between Goldenrod City and [[Saffron City]], but not before obtaining a Pass given by the [[Copycat]] in Saffron, in exchange for returning her [[Lost Item]]. Travelling northwards from Cerulean City now allows Kris to encounter [[Misty]], who refers to her as a pest for disrupting her date, challenging her to a battle at her gym in Cerulean. Following the defeat of the rest of Kanto's Gym Leaders, [[Erika]], [[Janine]], [[Blaine]], [[Brock]], [[Sabrina]], and {{ga|Blue}}, who is initially encountered by Kris at [[Cinnabar Island]], Kris heads for [[Mt. Silver]], upon getting permission from [[Professor Oak]] in [[Pallet Town]]. Her journey comes to a close when she faces Pokémon Trainer {{ga|Red}} deep within [[Mt. Silver Cave|Silver Cave]], where he has been training since shortly after he became Pokémon League Champion [[Generation I|three years prior]]. | |||
====Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver==== | |||
{{main|Lyra (game)|Lyra}} | |||
Although Kris does not formally appear in [[Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver]], a counterpart of hers, [[Lyra]], serves as the female player character, much in the same way that Kris does for Pokémon Crystal. | |||
An unused Pokégear icon for Kris can be found in the game's data [[File:Unused HGSS PokéGear Icon for Kris.png]] suggesting that she was the playable design at some point. | |||
===Appearance=== | |||
[[File:Crystal Kris.png|thumb|left|x200px|Kris' art from Crystal]] | |||
[[File:Cryskris.png|thumb|x200px|Art of Kris walking from Crystal ]] | |||
Whilst her age is unknown, Kris is a young girl with teal-colored hair and eyes. Kris' hair has a slight fringe towards the edges of her face, featuring two large, two large ponytails that protrude away and behind her head in a straight fashion, and then curve perpendicularly upwards towards her face, passing in front of her ears. The part where her hair bends at an angle is held together by two small red hairbands, one on each ponytail. In her artwork for Pokémon Crystal drawn by [[Sugimori]], Kris' hair is a deep teal with a blue tint, whereas in artwork for the [[GAME FREAK]] website, also drawn by Sugimori, it is completely dark blue. Her appearance in [[Pokémon Masters EX]] once again features teal-colored hair, but now with a green tint. Atop her head is a small yellow cap with a white rim. She wears a long, cropped jacket atop a red shirt that runs past her neck, which has a strap holding a pink Pokégear. The design of this Pokégear completely changes in a specific sketch for the GAME FREAK website by Sugimori, closer resembling a [[Mobile Game Boy Adapter]] than any Pokégear design in the series whilst maintaining the usual pink and red color. Beneath, Kris wears a pair of yellow cycling shorts, which feature a black stripe that runs across the bottom to the outer side of her waist in an L-shape on both sides. Kris' shoes are large white sneakers with a teal underside, featuring a Poké Ball-shaped pattern when viewed from above. | |||
[[File:Kris GAME FREAK Web-2.png|thumb|x200px|left|Art of Kris from the GAME FREAK website]] | |||
[[File:Kris GAME FREAK Web-1.jpg|thumb|x200px|Art of Kris with Togepi from the GAME FREAK website]] | |||
In all depictions, Kris has a pink bag, but it is depicted drastically different across all forms of media. In her initial artwork for Pokémon Crystal, although partially obscured, the bag is a completely rounded egg-like shape and features pink rivets, a stark contrast to the artwork that shows her walking forwards where the bag has notable bumps on the bottom, featuring a pink zipper. Artwork by Sugimori for the GAME FREAK website featuring Kris and {{p|Togepi}} shows her bag as a rectangle-shaped one with golden rivets, and a yellow zipper with a circular shape at the outer end. The individual art for Kris' bag (alongside [[Ethan (game)|Ethan's]]) maintains the both the golden rivets and the egg-like shape, though features a slightly different zipper to any past artwork. The in-game sprite used in the [[Bag]] menu when playing as Kris [[File:Kris Bag Sprite Crystal.png]] is more like a wide rucksack, also matching none of the other interpretations. Her 3D model in [[Pokémon Masters EX]] uses a yet another completely different design for the bag when compared to all other interpretations, with a less rounded shape, no rivets, no middle pockets (used for storing Poké Balls in Crystal) and a completely different top half that opens up with a fastener, as opposed to a zipper that wraps around the center of the bag. | |||
Kris | |||
Kris | Kris's in-game assets differ drastically from her artwork as a result of palette restrictions. Her yellow hat and shorts are shown as white, and all of the red color seen on her design is shown as black. No sprite depicts her with the [[Pokégear]] around her neck or bag on her back. Kris' hat appears entirely beige on her back sprite, as opposed to yellow and white. Additionally, Kris's hair is also a different shade than in her artwork, going from a teal a cool blue, a difference further exacerbated when Pokémon Crystal is played on screens that depict uncorrected colors. | ||

In English, she was first specifically named '''Kris''' on the back of the American and Australian box of Pokémon Crystal. This boxart includes a [[Pokémon battle]] screenshot featuring Kris and an {{p|Unown}}, which is described as: ''"New female trainer '''Kris''' faces the Unown."'' In the Japanese version of this boxart, this battle screenshot is not present and her name is not mentioned. In the American release of this game for [[Nintendo 3DS]] [[Virtual Console]], her name does not appear on the boxart even though the Kris vs. Unown battle screenshot is present (this time with no text description). | |||
Upon the game's release in 2019, she became available in [[Pokémon Masters EX]], where she is known as '''Kris''' (Japanese: '''{{j|クリス}}'''). This was the first time she was named in-game, 19 years after her debut in Pokémon Crystal. She has never been named in the [[core series]] games, except in the [[#Optional names|list of suggested names]] in a [[new game]]. | |||
In the Japanese version of Pokémon Crystal, '''{{j|クリス}}''' is a name equally suggested for both the male and female player characters in a [[new game]]. In English, this suggested name was adapted as '''Chris''' for the boy and '''Kris''' for the girl. | |||
In the player's story from the Japanese manual, the name '''{{j|クリス}}''' simultaneously refers to either player character. However, this was adapted as "'''you'''" instead in the English version. For instance: | |||
* Japanese version of the manual: | |||
*: 「'''クリス'''はパートナーとなる1{{ruby|匹|ぴき}}のポケモンを{{ruby|選|えら}}ぶと」 ('''''Kris/Chris''' chooses 1 partner Pokémon and [...]'') | |||
* English version of the manual: | |||
*: ''"After '''you''' choose your Pokémon [...]"'' | |||
For comparison, her male counterpart is named '''Chris''' in several game screenshots from the English manual. He was later known as {{ga|Ethan}}. | |||
She is named '''Crystal''' in several game screenshots from ''[[Pokémon Crystal: Official Nintendo Player's Guide]]''. | |||
She also was named '''Clis''' (which is another possible romanization of her Japanese name) in at least two image files from Game Freak's Japanese website: [https://web.archive.org/web/20011006025213/http://www.gamefreak.co.jp/pokemon/GALLERY/CLIS.JPG CLIS.JPG] and [https://web.archive.org/web/20011130150140/http://www.gamefreak.co.jp/POKEMON/GALLERY/WORKS/CLIS_2.JPG CLIS_2.JPG]. Both images used to have their modification date listed as March 2, 2001, decades before her debut in Pokémon Masters EX.<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20010303100537/http://www.gamefreak.co.jp/pokemon/GALLERY/</ref> | |||
