I think it would be a great idea if they introduced red's female counterpart in the anime. They had introduced May and Dawn, I think it would be a great idea. What do you think?
 
I really don't see it happening unless they were remaking a Kanto game and her character was used to market that. It would be interesting to see but seeing how it didn't happen when it should have it probably won't.
 
It would have been a great idea if Leaf had replaced Max or Brock during BF, but for now... No I don't think it would be a could idea, it wouldn't advertize anything.

Bring on BW girl

They really should have gotten rid of Max. Just three characters would have been fine with me but Leaf would have been the next best thing.

It would be amazing if Leaf was Ash's sister or something!!! They share the same mom in the games. They should reveal her and their dad in the same episode!!!

Im predicting that BW girl will not even make an appearance in the anime. Just change Dawn's hat and that's it, no need to bring in someone from the games that is incompatible with the anime world.

The problem with Leaf is that Misty was her replacement. Really, if they used Blue/Leaf instead of Misty I believe the anime would have gone in a better direction. Probably taking some things from the manga.

Yeah but when Misty was chosen to be apart of the main cast a female player character was unheard of in the games and instead they chose the first two gym leaders instead.

Doesn't matter because Misty's story doesn't even follow the game's story line. The concept of Blue/Leaf was already established back then, because she appeared in the game art and promotion. The same way the mangas used her, so could have the anime. It all came down to a creative decision, possibly because they needed people who looked more "unique" than Ash, hence Brock and Misty.
 
If Leaf was in RBY, it is quite possible and very likely she would be on the cast in Kanto and Misty would have just been the second Gym leader.
 
Maybe they'll do a little side thing. Like Jimmy in "The Legend of Thunder". Or cameo like Brendan & Lucas.

I think a cameo would be the best bet but it's even a little too late for that, then again movie cameos are kinda random like Marina or Rebecca in movie 9
 
That's probably Gamefreak's greatest mistake. We could have had an actual serious trainer girl alongside Ash all these years. The story would have been much better.

I would have definitely liked Blue more than Misty, she seems more cool and reasonable.

What would she have done? She would probably end up exactly like Misty did. Gyms were the only thing back then and she couldnt have done that because nobody wants to sit through every gym twice

She could have competed in other tournaments besides the Indigo League, probably based on anime only gyms.
 
leaf will never get an appearance on the show. she is obsolete. she would serve no purpose. her concept, her design, everything about her is dead. she's old.

priority goes to the b/w heroes, as well as the future heroes from future games.
 
It's definitely too late to introduce her now, but there's also the bit where her backstory is basically Ash's except that she's a girl. She doesn't get anything unique going for her.
 
You have no idea how much I wish they had shown Leaf in the anime. Leaf is amazing. Ever since I first got FRLG, I fell in love with her design. They could have thrown her in somewhere like they did with Lyra, and given her a really awesome personality and everything, it would have rocked. But there's no chance of her showing up now. Sad.
 
They could've at least slipped her into the Battle Frontier saga like they did with Lyra. That would've been awesome if they did because, you know, Leaf is awesome. But, sadly, they didn't do it.

The only way I can see her come in is if they have some FRLG remake. But that's so unlikely it's not even funny. Remake of a remake? No. Just...no.
