4th Gen Official New Girl Thread - Opinions and Discussion

[Miss Soupy]

Her hair is similar to Crystal's, the collar of her shirt is similar to Leaf's. She has an originality of her own even though some traits were used from other female leads.

Leaf = Girl from LG/FR right?
/just making sure

Now that you mention it... Her collar does look like Leaf's. And Leaf was, like, my favorite female playable character. x]

Uh... Again, I still like her design. Heck, I'm just glad to be playing as a girl in this region to be honest.

 

[Artemis]

Yes, Leaf does equal Green. I believe it was GymLeaderLily who pointed that out, and that is when I liked the new female even more because she has features from the past girls before her.

 

[bluechu]

do you think that that was what they were going for? some kind of small, combo of features from past female leads?

 

[Artemis]

I don't know if they were looking for a combination or not, all I know is that they did it no less.

 

[Miss Soupy]

I think that regardless, they're going to at some point recycle some smaller designs from older characters. But who knows? Maybe they did. x]

However, I do believe that the similarity between Kris and Mystery Girl's hair may very well have been intentional. Not using Kris's character design completely, but featuring some of the features she sported.

 

[bluechu]

their hats are somewhat similar as well

 

[Artemis]

I think it was intentional about the hair as well, just hoping to satisfy Crystal fans. to me it looks pretty good with her.

If you raid someones wardrobe, don't pick mario's >.<

 

[Artemis]

Well seeing as the girl is from the same creators or similar creators of Mario I wasn't surprised to see much similarities between them.

 

[Miss Soupy]

You're right. She should have picked Bowser's. :D

I kind of think her outfit is cute. It gives her this country feel, I think? I guess I'll be imagining her with a cute lil' accent when I play. <:3

The outfit is pretty cute because it matches the region's country feel.

Anyways, even if her hat looks like Mario's own or not, I like it anyways. At least they made it into a different style and it's quite fascinating to me.

Atleast dont pick marios color!
ANd Id like to see her with bowser-ish clothes!

 

[bluechu]

her look does set her apart from the other female leads. just like kris before her. maybe that is another connection between the two..?

The hat's color isn't the same color as Mario's hat actually.

Bowser clothes is just going to overboard with this Mario discussion. I like her overalls the way it is and it's actually a bit better than Mario's overalls.

if you had to battle against the new chick like as ur rival, then i would want to see a updated kris. but i still wanna ram that new girl in the face

 

[Farasha]

I like her. I just hope that the change to the female character doesn't mean that there will be a ton more changes in the remakes.

 

[Poliwagged]

Well, take into consideration that they didn't actually change the female character. There was originally no female character for Gold and Silver, thus she was created. They are probably trying to stay true to the original G/S, meaning no crystal.


I also like to think that the generic girl trainer counterpart from Pokemon Stadium 2 could have been the basis for Soul's design.

 

[Zelda]

I like her. I just hope that the change to the female character doesn't mean that there will be a ton more changes in the remakes.

I don't think they would make a whole bunch of changes. They just put her in because Gold and Silver did not have a girl as Poliwagged said.

Anyways, I was watching the new girl compared to Marina/Crystal and I noticed that I like the new girls clothes a bit more and some other things as well.

Spoiler:

Crystal/Marina was a bit fatter looking and I like how the new girl is a bit slimmer. Both hairystyles look okay but I'd say Marina's/Crystal's own was a bit more fascinating. The new girl's outfit is what I like better than Crystal's/Marina's and to me they both look great, but the new girl just seems more better looking in my opinion.

 

[Suzuna]

I personally love it, her outfit is very unique and her hat is awesome :)

 

[Operator3]

I don't think Kris is completely removed from HG/SS to be honest. She'll probably have a part in the story. I prefer the new girl anyway.
