Pokémon Red and Green beta: Difference between revisions

Before the English releases of {{game|Red and Blue|s}}, screenshots were released of a {{pkmn|battle}} with the {{ga|Blue|rival}} where the text string <code>The BLUE wants to fight!</code> was used. While this text would work with a typical {{pkmn|Trainer}}, such as <code>The LASS wants to fight!</code> or <code>The HIKER wants to fight!</code>, as they were not given personal names until [[Generation II]], it would cause problems with [[Gym Leader]], [[Elite Four]], [[rival]], and link battles, leaving them to end up as <code>The MISTY wants to fight!</code> or <code>The LANCE wants to fight!</code>, as these Trainers did not at the time have titles, only their names. Because of this, the {{wp|Article (grammar)#Definite article|definite article}} ''The'' was dropped in the final releases, leading to the somewhat odd sentence style used until [[Generation III]] of <code>{Trainer's class and/or name} wants to fight!</code>{{sup/1|RBY}}, <code>{Trainer's class and/or name} wants to battle!</code>{{sup/2|GSC}} or <code>{Trainer's class and/or name} would like to battle!</code>{{sup/3|RSE}}{{sup/3|FRLG}}
