I prefer Soul. Kris looks a little, I don't know, not right.

But I prefer the name Kris to Soul :/

invisible-chan July 15th, 2009 2:50 AM

For me:

Kris > Blue/Leaf > May ≈ Soul > Dawn

Kris was not only the first, but to me at least, the most tomboyish. On a completely unrelated note, she had the cutest heroinexrival ship. Next is Blue/Leaf. I liked her speculated appearance outfit more that the FRLG one.http://www.sailorteam.com/fakecard/starters/rgb.jpg I have May and Soul on equal, because... yeah. I'm actually okay with Soul. I like May's design/outfit, but I hate her game so she's about tied with the girl whose outfit I deem mediocre, but "replaced" my favorite. Dawn is last because I just plain dislike the outfit she was given. Completly impractical. I hope no one ever wheres that while adventuring. I'm okay with DPPt, though. Better that RSE anyways.

I still think of Soul as a heavily redesigned Kris. I just wish it hadn't been such a drastic change.

Overalls may not be so great on an actual person, but I give Game Freak props for making the girl wear something the other female playable characters haven't worn. It's perfect for her region. She has to go to Ice Cave and other places of the sort. She needs long sleeves. That's probably why she also has long socks. The season this game represents is fall, so that's why she's covered up like that. She reminds me of a combo between Misty and Whitney, but brunette version. I don't want to play as someone with blue hair again. I would like to play as a character that resembles me for once. (Leaf was the closest to that.) If the new girl wore her hair down, I'm sure it would be almost the same length or longer than Dawn's hair, which is close to my hair length. I actually like the hat.

I like your avatar. I would actually like her alot better if she have long hair like that instead of what she actually has

Pretend Kris never existed, would you still hate this new character? Hating someone for not looking the way you want them to look is a little ridiculous, don't you think? This new girl actually looks age appropriate. I honestly don't think they made her look like Mario on purpose. Her shirt was made red to match Gold's. They were probably thinking of just giving her shorts, but the shirt looked a little plain, so they made the shorts into overalls. In wifi plaza, the boy and girl trainers wear overalls and it looks cute on them. Okay, so the artwork isn't perfect. Sometimes the artwork looks gorgeous and the sprite looks awful. We know the hat isn't that big on her overworld sprite. If we're going to make a good decision, I think we should wait until we see the back sprite and the battle sprite.

Like I said, I like it. X3

I never played as Kris.
So I most likely wont play as Soul either.

Im just glad Gold is in there. :p

Dark Trainer Piro July 15th, 2009 7:16 PM

I prefer Kris mostly because Silver was the first Pokemon game I ever had. So it holds a special place in my memories.

Also, I like Kris' design better.

Soul-Fans. Take a look at Kris and do the same. (If I actually get you to do this, then I'm impressed, Roflmao)
And people who like both/doesn't care. Give yourselves a hug.

Alright, here is what I think.

Kris was indeed the first, but I don't think she looked too great. Soul looks amazing. That is what I think.

GFA July 16th, 2009 12:49 PM

Honestly, I live Crys way better, but I think Soul is like Leaf, and is just a new version of Crystal

Sweet Smoochum July 16th, 2009 2:35 PM

Kris had a cute sprite. The blue hair was lovely on her. (Blue is my favorite color.) She was the first girl I've played as in a video game. If there was a Crystal only remake, I'd like to play as her again.

Spoiler:
If you're a fan of the originals, put this in your sig:

Oh, The Places You'll Go. July 16th, 2009 2:49 PM

They're both great.
I can't compare them because they are two completely different people.
I like both their outfits, hair, and such.

Mōnštȝr¿ July 16th, 2009 8:47 PM

I put both simply because I don't care about either.

Kleinchen July 16th, 2009 10:04 PM

Honestly, I... I think they're both on the ugly side. Dx As much as I enjoy playing as female characters, Soul is just... Ick. I just really don't like either of their designs. :/ In fact I may even just play as a guy @[email protected]; Of course I said that when D/P came out and still played as a girl, but... I just don't like either of them. Thought Kris was ugly when Crystal came out, and the new girl, Soul, doesn't really strike my fancy either. :p

Sarcastic Prince July 16th, 2009 10:12 PM

Well, personally, they are both cute, amazing and beautiful!
Crystal = Very Cute
Soul = Super Cute


La Foudre July 16th, 2009 10:19 PM

I don't.. Care, honestly. I'm just glad I get to play a girl. Besides, I never got to play Crystal because it was my brother's game, so I don't really have any nostalgic feelings about her.

Oblivion Reaper 2.0 July 17th, 2009 11:02 AM

Kris was in crystal only people, puls her name comes from the manga...
Soul is like Leaf, who is in FR/LG because Red/Blue/Green did not have a female charcter...
Cris was in Crystal, not gold and silver so thats why they made Soul

Sweet Smoochum July 17th, 2009 11:11 AM

Either one could have been in this game and I'd be fine with it. Honestly, I'm glad they didn't make it so you could only play as Gold. I'm glad we have the option of playing as a girl, and I will play as Soul.

ReyRey-Pyon July 17th, 2009 11:25 AM

Soul
That cream puff hat, and those sexy mario overalls are such a turn on /not really

but all joking aside
I prefer the cutie soul over Kris, im a sucker for cute silly things so yeah...
and kris's hair is so pointy at the ends D8 it could be DANGEROUS! Kris has a nice outfit, the colors are TERRIBLE though D8
i prefered, anime!Marina's colors,

i never played crystal version, so forgive me, i dont have the feelings of nostalgia for her, the first female for me was May >3<

anyways
Soul gets my vote all the way i love that cream puff hat
Shes just, SO CUTE DDD8

GFA July 17th, 2009 11:32 AM

Seriously, Soul is Crys. Crys's hair was even brown in Pokemon Special for a bit, it's like what happened to Blue, she wore a black dress, and since she never made it into R/B/G/Y, her design was scrapped, and she was turned into Leaf. Same thing with Crys, tyhey probably thought Blue hair was unatural and decide to give her costume an update, I mean look at Silver, he's just Roark in a black jacket and without the helmet.

Oblivion Reaper 2.0 July 17th, 2009 11:35 AM

Good point GFA, most of us did catch that

Momoko July 17th, 2009 11:40 AM

Heh, I would have to go with Kris. Shes just so much more of a tomboy and I love her blue hair <3
New girl isnt that bad, though.

solaris knight July 17th, 2009 11:44 AM

I prefer Soul to Kris. Theres just some sort of quality the character has that makes her...cute. Plus, her hat reminds me of Shiki from the TWEWY, one of my favourite games, so thats a bonus. Never really cared that much for Kris, for some reason.

Leaf still looks more or less like Blue
silver still looks like silver (if no one pointed his roark-yness out, i bet no one would notice >3>)
gold still looks like gold
Kris looks nothing like Soul, it would be a really extream change D8

Momoko July 17th, 2009 11:47 AM

I prefer Souls sprite over Kris's, but definately not her art work, as cute as she may be :/

Second that, Soul's hot.

To be fair, I did first play silver so Kris does kind of give a nostalgia feel. Soul is just, hot.

Brendonwii July 18th, 2009 12:32 AM

I like silver better...
also Its kinda lol my brothers name is Kris me and my friend bag him so much about it.
Also people are really biased towards pokemon versions like pick gold instead of silver cause its first ect.
