===Environment===
[[File:Hoenn Adventures.png|thumb|250px|Hoenn in Pokémon Adventures]]
The Hoenn region boasts many dramatic environments from [[Hoenn Route 119|rainforests]] to [[Hoenn Route 111|deserts]], but its most striking feature is its abundance of water, a strong contrast to other core series regions, especially Sinnoh. Much of the region is covered in water, almost equal in size to the mainland, exemplifying the theme of the games. There are several large and populated islands off the mainland only accessible via [[water route]]s, many of which are deep enough for {{m|Dive|diving}}.
 
Much of the interior area is forested or mountainous, so most notable cities are found on the coastline. People who live in towns and villages in the mountain areas must adapt to the harsh environment. An extreme example of this is the inhabitants of [[Fortree City]], who live in tree houses. This is in stark contrast to other regions in the [[Pokémon world]], as noted by {{adv|Ruby}} in [[Pokémon Adventures]], who preferred Johto's many modernized cities to the wilderness and countryside in Hoenn. Hoenn has one active volcano, [[Mt. Chimney]], in the northwest of the region. The ash from Mt. Chimney regularly falls on the nearby towns and routes. On the opposite side of the Hoenn region lies the impact crater which [[Sootopolis City]] was built in.
 
Some of Hoenn's newly discovered Pokémon strongly reflect the influence of the primarily tropical environment.
 
===Climate===
Hoenn seems to have a warmer climate than other regions, similar to an equatorial climate. This may mean that Hoenn is located closer to the equator than the other regions.
 
The mainland experiences a wide variety of weather across its breadth. Ashes constantly fall around [[Mt. Chimney]] in the northwest. Constant, extreme {{weather|sandstorm}}s afflict the arid desert near its center. Frequent {{weather|rain}} falls on the mainland's northeastern areas, nourishing the rainforests and {{DL|tall grass|long grass}} that grow there.
 
===Demographics===
The towns, cities, and areas of the Hoenn region's total population in {{2v2|Ruby|Sapphire}} is 598. In [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]], the total population of  Hoenn's towns, cities, and areas is 694.
 
===Notable locations===
Hoenn has sixteen [[List of cities and towns|cities and towns]], including a [[Ever Grande City|Pokémon League]]. Since the majority of the cities and towns of Hoenn are immersed into nature, there aren't many large cities comparable to [[Unova]]'s [[Castelia City]] or [[Kalos]]'s [[Lumiose City]], with the largest city being [[Lilycove City]]{{sup/3|RSE}}/[[Mauville City]]{{sup/6|ORAS}}.

The Hoenn region is unique and famous for its tropical-like environments. The region does not feature a true mountain range like in Sinnoh and other regions. Hoenn introduced many new natural environments including a volcano, a jungle, a beach, a desert, and many more. The Hoenn region also introduced the idea of routes with differing [[weather]], including constant rainfall, thunderstorms, falling ash, and rays of sunlight.

====Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald–exclusive locations====
====Routes====
Routes in Hoenn number are numbered as {{rtn|101|Hoenn}}-{{rtn|134|Hoenn}}, breaking the former pattern set up by Kanto and Johto. This is presumably to discourage the idea of being able to travel back to either region after completion of the game, as was done in [[Generation II]] and as a mirror of the fact that Japan's road system possesses a similar gap. Some of the routes have differing [[weather]] depending on the day they are traveled on.
