:::If "Leaf" and Green were intended to be separate, then their designs should reflect that, similar to Kris and Lyra, yet they don't. If a simple outfit change is enough to make a whole new character, then, for example, May from RS is not the same from E, and neither are the same from ORAS.

: I agree there isn't much sense in keeping "Leaf" in the infobox and opening paragraph. Even with the Kotobukiya figure being named that, it was never used in the games, so it should be irrelevant. As said, it's just a placeholder name. I recall Red being officially called "Ash" ages ago in a poll asking about what Nintendo characters players would like to see Smash, yet we're not calling him "Red/Ash" in his infobox, are we?

:: And {{ga|Ethan}} was called Gold until HeartGold/SoulSilver came out but there's no references to his old name. There's no Ethan/Gold in his infobox, and the article consistently called him Ethan, even in places talking about GSC. And the Pokémon Gold manual has called him Gold, not just in screenshots but also in the story page. I don't know if the Pokémon Silver manual called him Silver in the story summary, but Leaf/Green is a similar situation to Gold/Ethan. Ethan was Gold for a decade. Green was Leaf for fourteen years. And they got renamed by their appearance as an NPC. People are arguing that the Green from Let's Go is a different person from Leaf, but if that's the case, could Ethan be a different person from Gold?
