Two things: 1- call me old and a hater (you're probably right on the "hater" thing, I just can't get with the new pokemon stuff yet), but I recognize only 2 pokemon here; Pikachu and Meganium.
2- I'm not up-to-date (as stated above) with the new stuff, whose that girl across from Red? Would've been more fitting for it to be Silver (or Gold, whichever name goes with the protagonist), wouldn't it?
