Since I've seen this discussion in the edit summaries, might as well open this to discussion. As far as I know there is no official confirmation that the female's name is "Green", and even so, her design is based off the original concept for a female trainer, and not the current trainer represented in Smash. While you can argue that since the female protagonist has no official name and thus should be called "Green", remember that differences in naming the protagonist in remakes can happen, as per the Kris/Lyra situation from the Johto games.

:I was going to add it here as well. In regards to the name of the female Trainer, we should only change it if ''Bulbapedia'' does as it is now a current debate on there because of the female character's appearance in "Let's Go". Until then, we should keep her current "canon" name, being "Leaf". Otherwise we'd be arguing something that is better discussed on Bulbapedia. ("if they change it" I mean, change the page from Leaf_(Game) to Green_(Game). They ''might'' change it. Who knows? [[User:Wolff| Wolff]] ([[User talk:Wolff|talk]]) 18:41, 16 November 2018 (EST)

Apparently the decision to change the female protagonist on Bulbapedia has been reached. At least for the time being, Bulbapedia is going with '''Green''' because of ''Let's Go''. However, Bulbapedia still refers to the version of the girl as '''Leaf''' in her appearance for ''FireRed & LeafGreen''. I view this as a similar case to Zelda's current profile picture. Despite Zelda's most recent appearance being BotW, she uses her ALBW art as that is, one of, the basis of her most recent appearance in ''Smash'', being ''Ultimate''. Because the female Pokémon Trainer is specifically based on her appearance from ''FireRed & LeafGreen'' in ''Smash Ultimate'', she should be referred to as name used for those games, being '''Leaf'''.
