Name off the other two trainers from Pallet Town

My little friend
Has there ever been a point where they reviel the actual names of the trainers who took bulbasuar and charmander from Oak?

Yeah, ok!
No it wasn't. We never found out the names. They were just kids who for some reason gave up Pokemon training or "failed" at being trainers.

was there a thread about this like a month ago?

they were only written as a plot device so Ash would miss out on all 3 starter pokemon and get Pikachu, and without revealing who Gary's starter was

then they were referenced a few times without being shown, and were later said to have "failed" and written out of the show entirely, never to be referenced again.

I think it was Dameon who got the charmander and then released it.

Just because you have a Charmander doesn't mean you got it from Professor Oak.

I remember when many real world trainers used to assume that Gary started with Eevee.

Could the other two trainers be named Jack and John? Those are the alternate names in Red and Blue.

There was already a thread on this a while back.. The characters don't have names. Samurai from Kanto said they swept through him, as well as Gary so at least we can here about them. I also think they were mentioned briefly in ''The Poke-Corral''.

you know, I recently watched the Japanese episodes for the Sekiei League, and I couldn't help wondering: who the hell were all those people cheering on Satoshi at Orchid's lab? For that matter, there was another large crowd of people for Satoshi when he first got Pikachu. Really, these people, as well as the other two trainers that left Masara Town, had been growing up in Satoshi's home, so they're most likely people he grew up with, childhood friends, etc. Have these guys even appeared again during the later leagues? Not that I can recall. It really is a crying shame they couldn't divulge more on these type of characters.

Has there ever been a point where this forum went two weeks without someone coming in and asking the exact same question?!?

Maybe they'll reveal the other two trainers in the last episode or something. Other than that, i doubt we shall ever know.

Why would they do that?

It's not like it's important or anything.

I think the trainer that pick charmander might be Sammy (which appeared in Celebi:voice of the forest) because Oak knew him before Ash told Oak about him.That Charmeleon maybe is evolved from Charmander

Its not Sammey for the simple reasn is Oak and Sammey are one in the same. Sammey is just the younger version of Oak that went threw time from the past to the present in the movie.

Wow, way to completely miss one of the main plot points of the movie.
