I think they're doing a pretty good job with that, for starters we have evolutions now, but masters has been implying for a long time that none of the characters we're playing with are from the same universe, they're all just similar enough to understand each other as if they were. I'm super hype for when they'll go full in on that idea, could even be soon with Rainbow Rocket since we know RR is supposed to have non Mega verse Maxie and Archie, but if not that's fine because someday they'll need to resell us another version of the most profitable characters and we need to still promo /include Hisui starting next year.

Since you mentioned some of the "canon" protagonists in Pokemon Masters, the others, for anyone wondering, are: -Red (I mean c'mon, it's made pretty obvious by now) -Ethan (Silver's rival; yes, Lyra mentions battling Red, but she also talks about her grandparent's daycare and her Marill which are things that relate to the support character) -Brendan (Norman's son and states he already defeated him, Wally's rival; May is stated to be Prof. Birch's daughter and she focuses on field research, aka the role designated to the rival character, she prefers contests now over battles) -Dawn (From Twinleaf Town, states that Barry is her longtime childhood friend; Lucas still isn't in the game) -Hilbert (Cheren's rival/friend, mentions various instances related to the game's main plot... especially those related to N; Hilda is insanely battle focused which may imply her being the partner from the battle subway) -Rosa? (I'm still not 100% sure on this one, but she IS one of the main characters in masters first story arc; Nate's sync story is a reference to/copy of the battle subway in BW2) -Serena (Calem states that Serena used to be really quiet, a reference to the silent protagonist, he also has an Espurr which is a core member of the rival's team, and he talks about not always wearing his cap which references the fact that the rival doesn't wear a hat in XY) -Elio/Selene? (This one is a toss up... they both came from Kanto, both of their moms have a Kantonian Meowth, they both challenged the island challenge, and both know all the Alola characters) -Gloria (Has Zacian while Hop has Zamazenta which references the main story in SwSh; Victor isn't in the game yet)

I think the problem comes down to her name: in FR/LG, her official name is Leaf, however in Let's go, her lookalike's official name is Green. So it begs the question as to why they decided to rename her in the 2018 games, while giving her a different enough design from her 3rd generation counterpart. And to add even more confusion on top of that, Masters, an other official source, which came out after the let's go games (2019), released Leaf in her FR/LG outfit (2020), while keeping the name Leaf, so if they just wanted to rename the character, then that decision makes no sense (she's also the only character to have suffered from this name confusion, no one else, save for Brendan in the French version of the ORAS special demo, have had that happen to them, as far as I know). So unless we get actual confirmation, either from Masters or TPC, that they're one and the same, or alternate characters, the confusion will stay, because no matter what, it is an odd situation.

It's literally just the name. I don't know why they didn't just call her Green and make her look like her manga couterpart instead of "Red but girl" as it stands, Leaf and Green are technically 2 different people as Green started to exist in the games but Pokemon still used the name and therefore the character of Leaf in Masters. A "two sides of the same coin" deal if you will.

I like to believe that they’re are two gamefreak employees who keep arguing on a name for Green/Leaf.

So Green is a classic version of Leaf had she actually existed in Gen 1. If you get what I mean.

Okay, LGPE is just released and Leaf is Green now? Confusing, but all right. ... But then Masters came along bringing LEAF back, with none of the personality traits that LGPE Green has. 3. LGPE Green's appearance is so brief and so random. Why is she looking for Mewtwo? Where did she get Mega Stones for Mewtwo? Why did she chuck pokeballs at us? I hope we'll find out in Evolutions. Honestly I feel like GF just decides to pretend Leaf doesn't exist for all these years until LGPE came along and decided to do something about her. But then in Masters they went back to Leaf for some reason, with an Eevee, a Pokémon she has never been associated with in the manga nor LGPE. Maybe Pokémon is as confused as we are.

Red is iconic, while it took nearly 20 years for Leaf to get the recognition she deserved. Ethan gets some love as the protagonist of the most popular generation, but Kris is highly regarded, while Lyra...exists. Brendan gets less love, and May is one of Hoenn's most iconic characters, but she's still greatly overshadowed by her successors. Lucas...oh, poor Lucas has gotten so little love over the years, while Dawn is one of the most beloved protagonists in the franchise, at least partially thanks to her anime counterpart. Hilbert and Hilda have some of the best character designs in the series, but they vanished after their debut; Nate's design is a step down, and...how the heck did Rosa get so popular? Calem's another Ash prototype as far as the franchise is concerned, while Serena got ridiculously popular in such a short time. Elio may as well be a mannequin, Selene has the dumbest hat in the land, and they both play second fiddle to Lillie. Victor was doomed from the start, no thanks to Gloria's explosive popularity from the moment she was revealed. Eight generations of protagonists, and for so many of them, the most love they've gotten in their entire lifetime is in the rather obscure manga and a spinoff mobile game.

5:34 The reason why fans assume the Gen 2 boy protagonist's canon name is Gold in Gold/Silver/Crystal is because when you name him in Gold Version, the name "Gold" is at the top of the list above "Hiro", "Taylor" and "Karl". Same goes for Red, his canon default name is up top in Red Version above "Ash" and "Jack", and Blue's canon name "Blue" is above "Gary" and "John", especially in Yellow Version. This is also where Ash and Gary get their names in the anime show.

@@vladprus4019 I know, as in Silver Version, because in Silver Version you can give Gold the default names meant for his rival just like in Blue Version you can give Red the default names meant for Blue, and Blue the default names meant for Red. In Silver Version, Silver's default names are "Silver", "Kamon", "Oscar" and "Max", and as I stated before, the name up top is canon, so the Gen 2 rival's canon name is Silver. (edit): Another example of this is the Diamond/Pearl/Platinum Version rival Barry. In Diamond Version, Barry is the Gen 4 rival's canon name because it is up top above "Damion", "Tyson" and "Markus", and in Platinum the name "Barry" is above "Nolan", "Roy", and "Gavin".

I think part of the reason Game Freak doesn't want to give them any distinguishable traits it's to preserve the idea that the Protagonists are us, thus if they made them a specific way, that wouldn't necessarily apply to every single player that played as them. On the flip side, if they did make them NPCs but just silent like Red, then people might complain that they are just copies of Red.

In Let's Go, Green even has the same poses Leaf had, her hairstyle is the exact same and, it's just clear Leaf was meant to be a redesigned Green for the remakes. They must have just scrapped the idea of having Leaf and just brought Green back, but it's essentially the same character. Also, it's really hard to define which character is really canon and which isn't, but most official artwork portrays both protagonists together.

Honestly Leaf was done so dirty, being forgotten for so long, having a whole new counterpart in LGPE (and I don't get why...?), and then appearing again in Masters as though nothing had happened and the creators just suddenly remembered she existed. Not to mention that she and Kris are missing from Gotcha. I can't believe two protagonists didn't make it in when even Emmet and Ingo did.

They really should've given those games their own anime adaptations.

Silver was a character that I’ve always wanted to see back. Not a protagonist but I’d love to see him in a newer game with his chad feralagatr

it would be cool if they made an actual (mature) anime series based on the games. like each game has it's own season and they could focus on the protagonists that aren't really talked about or seen a lot.
