(Still don't get why when Ethan's name is established as such, it's what Bulbapedia goes with, but Green's name is, it's not.)

Green's adventure begins after [[Professor Oak]] calls her to his lab and gives her a [[Starter Pokémon|choice of Pokémon]]. {{ga|Blue}} challenges Green to a [[Pokémon battle]] as soon as they get their Pokémon. A bit later, Professor Oak calls the two back, gives each of them a [[Pokédex]], and sends them on a journey to fulfill their dream of capturing every kind of Pokémon.

Green travels all over Kanto, filling in the Pokédex and defeating the [[Gym Leader]]s. Her [[rival]] Blue constantly stays one step ahead, and shows up quite a few times to impede her progress. When Green eventually reaches the [[Elite Four]], she finds that Blue has beaten her to a milestone yet again and has become the [[Indigo League]] {{pkmn|Champion}}. Green defeats Blue in the final battle, and becomes the Champion herself. Her adventure continues even after that, with Green discovering new places, such as the [[Sevii Islands]].

Green's main conflict in the games, aside from Blue, is [[Team Rocket]], an infamous group of Pokémon thieves. Green clashes with Team Rocket many times in her quest. She defeats a group of grunts at [[Mt. Moon]] who are attempting to steal rare Pokémon [[Fossil]]s, and defeats another group ahead at a bridge in [[Cerulean City]]. Green protects the [[Pokémon Tower]] and [[Mr. Fuji]] in [[Lavender Town]] and destroys their hold on the [[Celadon Game Corner|Game Corner]]. After she foils their plot to take over [[Silph Co.]], Green encounters [[Giovanni]], the leader of Team Rocket, as the final Gym Leader in [[Viridian City]]. Upon defeating him, Green stops the group's world domination plots once and for all, though a few remaining grunts, many who appeared and were defeated by Green on [[Five Island]] in [[Generation III]], would band together in [[Johto]] to [[Generation II|try to revive the group]].

Green makes an appearance in [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]]. She's first mentioned by {{ga|Trace}} after the {{player}} has become Champion as a girl looking to {{pkmn2|caught|catch}} a powerful Pokémon spotted in [[Cerulean Cave]]. After the player has caught {{p|Mewtwo}} in Cerulean Cave and exited the cave, Trace will appear again and mention how the girl looking for Mewtwo had entered the cave earlier. Green can then indeed be found inside Cerulean Cave, at the same spot where Mewtwo was earlier. When first interacted with, she will toss a [[Poké Ball]] at the player, having mistaken them for a Pokémon. Upon learning that the player managed to catch Mewtwo before her, she immediately challenges them to a battle. After being defeated, she will hand the player both of Mewtwo's [[Mega Stone]]s: [[Mewtwonite X]] and [[Mewtwonite Y]]. She will then ask the player to become one of her Pokémon, along with Mewtwo, and throws several Poké Balls at them, attempting to catch them like a Pokémon. After failing in doing so, she runs away, asking the player to consider her offer.

Although she is referred to as "Leaf" in unused Trainer data in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, she was not officially referred to as such until the reveal of the Kotobukiya ArtFx J figurine featuring her as リーフ ''Leaf''.<ref>[https://twitter.com/SUPER_32X/status/146236304957513728 Twitter - Sugimori on the name of the FRLG female protagonist] (Japanese)</ref><ref>[https://twitter.com/kotobukiyas/status/1048377301530947584 Twitter - Kotobukiya ArtFx J figurine announcment] (Japanese)</ref> Because of this, she was also known in the fandom as "Green" (ブルー ''Blue'' in Japanese) to match her {{adv|Green|Pokémon Adventures counterpart}}. This name would later be used officially in [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]]. She is also sometimes referred to as フグリ ''Fuguri'' in the Japanese fandom. The name is derived from the katakana rendering of "LeafGreen", リー'''フグリ'''ーン ''rī'''fugurī'''n''.
