** It also makes [[Generation IV]] the first generation in which two game names have the same first initial in English ('''P'''earl and '''P'''latinum). However, other languages have had the same initial in their game names, with Spanish '''A'''zul and '''A'''marillo for Blue and Yellow and German '''S'''aphir and '''S'''maragd for Sapphire and Emerald. Coincidentally, all three of these are the respective second and third versions of their generation.
