Why is it that Kris has this template at the top of her page when all other player characters are considered to have their default name as their "official name"?

:Most of the other characters are either in the as a rival character, which only uses one name (the player characters in RSE/DPPt/HGSS/BW/BW2/XY), from internal data (Leaf), or they show up in other games (Red and Blue).  Kris' name isn't used in anything besides on box art. --[[User:Funktastic~!|<span style="color:#009900">'''It's'''</span> <span style="color:#CC66FF">'''Funktastic~!'''</span>]][[User talk:Funktastic~!|<sub><small><span style="color:#99CCFF">''話してください''</span></small></sub>]] 17:32, 6 April 2014 (UTC)

:::I actually get what Funk is saying. Kris, Leaf, and Silver only ever use a player-chosen name in all their appearances (even Hilbert and Hilda show up with those names in the Subway). Because of this, they have no "official" name as an NPC, the most we really have is the first option on the list if there even is one.

:Because "Kris" is only used by the back of the American box art as an example, since that's the first name on the list. In fact, her official name is likely Marina since all female player characters that have appeared in the anime share their names (and the whole idea that canons cannot cross is pure fanon in itself).
:Also, "Leaf" is a stupid name because people refuse to accept the theme logic of the main Kanto games. If the guy is called Red and the rival Blue (Green, in Japan), then the most obvious choice for the girl is Green (Blue, in Japan).
:The only characters we have a hard time with knowing their official names are Ethan (in Generation II's context) and "Silver". Ethan's Generation II name is {{tt|most likely Jimmy in English|I know about 4Kids screwing up their names in the dub but The Legend of Thunder! is their main appearance anyway.}} and definitely Kenta in Japanese. About "Silver", well... I have no idea.
