Of course, you could just say Oak's family moved to Kanto when he was young and his niece married a Kantonese man, so Elektra got that type of name, but honestly this is all overthinking it. Just go with whichever you prefer, since Red and Blue are going to be called Red and Blue, anyway.<br/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div>Wasn't Red, Red in the anime too? Although some people claim Red is Ash. I'm not sure I buy it. I haven't seem much of the anime.<br/><br/>the name Elektra actually isn't Japanese, it's Greek in origin. But her last name is Japanese sounding. However, you're right, this is over thinking it. Honestly, I think most of us know the English names better. So best to stick mostly with them I think unless others object.
