No sources so I`m renaming Berlitz `The Lady` - unsigned comment from Random Dude123 (talk • contribs)

Okay, well, if you open up a character map and check the characters like I did, you can see the characters of her name are 'Be', 'Ru', 'Ri', 'Tu', and 'Tu'. So, um, I think it's assumable there's SOME source on it.

On another note, though, before changing it to something like 'The Lady', you should wait and see, because that's really a terrible and non-specific name for an article.

And on another note, that's NOT how you move articles. --Pie 22:12, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

Were did you find this infomation? -Random Dude132

Have you ever considered that some of us actually go out to buy and read this stuff? - 振霖_T 07:58, 3 December 2006 (UTC)

And besides, look at these three pages about the new main cast: 1 2 3

Anyone think her first name will be Opal?

Since this would work for the third version, with Giritina as the cover pokemon. Not only does Opal actually work for a girl's name, but it also associated with Giritina. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Clark Griswald (talk • contribs).

It doesn't matter what we think. If it's not canon, all there can be is baseless speculation. What if they do a third version with a green stone instead, like Jade? That's a girl's name, too. And it's Giratina. Don't worry, we'll know in due time. Plus... you oughta capitalize Pokémon and use the accented e. It's down in the character pallete, or you could hit Alt + 130 to generate it as you type. Tom Temprotran 00:05, 24 December 2006 (UTC)

Actually, it's more correct to use the ASCII equivalent, alt+0233 (don't forget the zero) Hangfromthefloor 10:02, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

I know it's just an assumption, but doesn't it APPEAR to be true? Giratina's association with Girasol and thus a pearl. I mean, I don't see anything related to Jade around. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Clark Griswald (talk • contribs).

Well, you never know. It may be a valid assumption, and it may end up true, but we can't risk putting something that's not a concrete fact here. Heck, I think the third could very well be Ivory, as that's an organic stubstance that's considered to be a precious thing, much like pearls are. As for the diamonds, they're grouped with rubies, sapphires, and emeralds as the precious gemstones. Plus, if it were Ivory, it would relate to Arseus in its color, and not to mention, that Dialga and Palkia are said to be two halves of it. Nintendo is, as always, trying to screw with us. From all of the GS references in FRLG and DP, many think there'll be a remake of the second gen. But as long as it's unknown, there's no place for it on an encyclopedia of Pokémon. The same goes for the timeline relation between RBYGSC and RSEDP. Many THEORIZE that the three-year gap came into play once again, but there's very little concrete facts until we get an official English translation. The only thing we know for sure is that Nintendo's doing a third version. They've done it the past three generations, first time they didn't was FRLG, because some might expect an OceanBlue, and others might expect ThunderYellow. Or at least, that's my theory. I see where yours comes from, and I do think that it could possibly be Opal. But then, we'd risk an edit war over the most trivial unannounced information: What the name of the third version of DP will be. And then... everyone will just throw in random things they thought of on a whim.

Plus, who knows, maybe they'll do like GSC and not have a related Pokémon on the third box. Suicune is most certainly unrelated to Lugia, and is some sort of subservient being to Ho-Oh. All I'm saying is just wait. We'll know in time, and then, if you get here first, you can move the article to whatever the name is. I'm not making any promises that you will be, but I'm absolutely sure that we'll know Berlitz's first name soon. Whether it's Jade, Opal, Ivory, or whatever, that's up to Nintendo. I do see that there are good points to make it either Opal or Ivory, though. Both Giratina and Arseus have connections to Dialga and Palkia, through type and legends. And whichever is better in Nintendo's eyes will be it, I suppose.

Still. Just wait. Watch Pokémon news sites. Pay attention to different sources. Once Nintendo lets it out there, it'll be everywhere soon after. Tom Temprotran 06:27, 28 December 2006 (UTC)

Bravo my good sir. I was never saying that it SHOULD be added right away, merely speculation on the matter. Besides, you've done quite well in explaining yourself, and I can't help but admire you for all you have to say. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Clark Griswald (talk • contribs).

Hey, I try. I'd probably do the same thing if this was back in Gen III before Emerald, even though I always figured that it was a for sure thing that it would be. Can't say that I didn't doubt that Nintendo would somehow come up with a way-out-there idea for the third version, though, that wouldn't have Rayquaza on it, like a Topaz, to go with Yellow like RS do with RB. That turned into FRLG, though, which was a pretty big upset either way.

...fact is, there's nothing stopping Nintendo from making Amethyst Version with Crecelia on it, Amethyst was once up there with diamonds, rubies, sapphires, and emeralds as the most precious of the gems. Heck, that'd be a reference back to the GSC mascots much like RSE was back to RGB. We'd have x49, x50, and one of the run-around-the-region guys, whereas last time, we had three totally related ones, just like in RGB.

So yeah, could be anything in the world, especially with 14 legendaries that could be on the cover. Whatever it is, though, it'll be a surprise. And psssssst. Don't forget to put four tildes (~) in a row to sign your comments. Tom Temprotran 01:15, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

It might possibly be Quartz, from the tz in Berlitz. I haven't heard much or followed a lot of Generation IV news, so I probably wouldn't be the one to figure this out. Hangfromthefloor 10:02, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

So, I'm running some polls about this topic out of boredom, and you'd be surprised to see just how many people are convinced that the next version will be Opal/Girasol. A lot of them are even jerks about other versions existing. And I mean, Amethyst is believable, but it's just that Giritina is like Rayquaza in a lot of ways, and also relates to the dragons. Now ivory? They wouldn't release a version about an event pokemon. And Crescelia? I'm just not convinced, because that would deal with another event one. Clark Griswald 23:12, 2 February 2007 (UTC)

Who says they won't release one about an event Pokémon? Before Crystal, you'd've thought they'd never release one with one of a legendary trio on the box without the other two on the other two versions, right? And Crecelia's not as much event as it is like Latios and Latias. Heck, Yellow was an odd choice for a third version of Red/Blue. Pikachu barely relates to Charizard and Blastoise. The only third version we've seen so far whose mascot relates to the first two completely was Emerald. And... that's not counting Red/Green and Blue, since that got a fourth version, which became everyone else's third. Or something like that.

It goes a little something like this, in my vision:

First/Second versions		Third version
Red	Blue	Yellow
Final form, Fire starter	Final form, Water starter	Special starter
Gold	Silver	Crystal
Tin Tower	Brass Tower	Legendary beast
Ruby	Sapphire	Emerald
Master of Sunlight	Master of Rain	Master of Weather
		?
Diamond	Pearl	Version 3
Master of Time	Master of Space	??????????
