::::Anyway I'll gladly argue this further. I just wanted to reintroduce this discussion, as I feel I need to right a wrongdoing I have done in the Pokemon community.[[User:Porygon|Porygon]] 19:36, 12 May 2009 (UTC)

:::::Nope. His intended name isn't Barry any more than {{ga|Blue}}'s is [[Gary]]. '''[[User:TTEchidna|<span style="color:#DAA520">''TTE''</span>]][[User talk:TTEchidna|<span style="color:#C0C0C0">chidna</span>]]''' 19:46, 12 May 2009 (UTC)

::::::The same could be said with his name "Diamond" in Pearl version almost. Since in Plat you get a randomization between the two. If Pearl was intended one would assume that his auto name in Platinum would have just ended up "Pearl". We've gotten other character names from the first names out of the list of optional names. Does the auto name really hold priority over the first name in a list that has backing in Platinum (And is the only name to return from Diamond or Pearl), and support from Pokemon themselves? This argument for Pearl made more sense when we didn't have anything else to grasp onto. If the internal data referred to him as Barry would that be sufficient, like Leaf?[[User:Porygon|Porygon]] 21:23, 12 May 2009 (UTC)

:::::::I agree. Calling him "Pearl" seems pretty dumb to me, considering that:
:::::::*It would mean that there should be a characer named "Diamond"
:::::::*"Diamond" seems to be as valid a name for him as "Pearl" because of Platinum
:::::::*The games stopped naming the characters after the versions during the previous generation
:::::::*The player characters are callled Lucas and Dawn
:::::::*The anime named his counterpart Barry/Jun, after abandoning the tradition of renaming the game characters (anime May, Dawn, Solana and Kellyn have the same name as their game counterparts)
