Talk:Barry (game)

Why Damion?

The fact that Damion is based on Diamond doesn't auromatically mean that it's his default English name. So, why is he identified as Damion in this article? --Maxim 14:04, 17 April 2007 (UTC)

Because he was referred as "Damion" in the game synopsis in D&P pre-release. - Mitsumasa 14:17, 17 April 2007 (UTC)

Where is that synopsis? Is that OFFICIAL synopsis? --Maxim 14:34, 17 April 2007 (UTC)

Sure it is, good man. Screenshots of the game show "Damion" as one of the listed names for him (the others are Barry, Tyson and Markus). - Mitsumasa 15:21, 17 April 2007 (UTC)

But Barry is on the top, Damion is not. So, Barry has higher "value". --Maxim 15:48, 17 April 2007 (UTC)

No, it doesn't. It's just "another" name. The order doesn't matter. Damion was used by Nintendo. - Mitsumasa 21:48, 17 April 2007 (UTC)

Where was Damion used? Because you said on the name list, but Barry's there also. So, where is it used, besides in the game itself? Did Nintendo refer to him as Damion during an interview, and can you link me to it? Do they refer to him as Barry also? - Jonah 7:06 PM, April 17, 2007

Could someone post the article where Nintendo uses Damion, and the video where it shows the list of names for the rival?--DSDark 16:57, 19 April 2007 (UTC)

We have Damion's optional Pearl names. Is he still Damion? - Jonah 2:26 PM April 22, 2007

(I have a topic about this on the BMGf, but I think I should also adress it here.) I think the in-game data should be taken at more value than even Nintnedo's word, or guides (which they apparently have used "Gary" for Blue.) That said, I also don't think we've ever deviated from using a name if the game dosen't randomize it when we enter a blank name in-game.

With Diamond being the 'primary' version, if you enter his name in blank, it comes up as "Pearl". If I'm not mistaken this is exactly how we get Blue's name in the original versions.

I'd still like to see some of Nintnedo's use of the name, regardless. --Porygon 05:05, 24 April 2007 (UTC)

The guide is up on BT. Anyone have the pages which refer to him as Damion? --Zeta 21:56, 4 May 2007 (UTC)
