Черен
"Черен" means "black" in Russian also. Kikugi 08:23, 15 July 2010 (UTC)
- Nope. Russian for black is чёрный. I'm learning the language. Also, I think that rather than wondering what language is it taken from, we should say that it's actually a SLAVIC root. Russian, Bulgarian, Polish, Czech, Serbian, Ukrainian etc. - those are all Slavic languages and the words for "black" and "white" are very similar in all of them, as they all came from the same Proto-Slavic root. --Maxim 09:47, 15 July 2010 (UTC)
- So isn't "черен" a short form of "чёрный" like "бел" (Bel) is a short form of "белый"? Kikugi 10:27, 15 July 2010 (UTC)
- Well, it's possible. But such forms seem to be very rarely used and somewhat obsolete. I really think that it's hard to specify what language are the names Bel and Cheren derived from. Both are from common Slavonic roots běl- and čĭrn- which evolved differently in respective languages. I'm a linguist (not a professional yet but studying and striving to become one), so if you've got questions about such thing, then call me. --Maxim 10:44, 15 July 2010 (UTC)

- How do you know Bel won't do that? Wait for official confirmation please.--Pokélova! 17:16, 15 July 2010 (UTC)
- They specifically mention that Cheren wants to be the Champion, without saying that for Bel. Therefore, either he'll become Champion before you and be the final boss (like RGB) or he'll battle you when you're about to challenge the Pokémon Leauge for the first time (like GSC and RSE). --Shiny Noctowl 17:19, 15 July 2010 (UTC)
