The English games will print any of the characters below. However, only the characters on a white background are actually used in text. Characters on a dark gray background are holdovers from the Japanese encoding, while those on a light gray background may be used in a game in a different language. | The English games will print any of the characters below. However, only the characters on a white background are actually used in text. Characters on a dark gray background are holdovers from the Japanese encoding, while those on a light gray background may be used in a game in a different language. While all the holdovers from the Japanese encoding (that is characters on a dark gray background) display as themselves in Ruby and Sapphire versions, they appear as spaces in Emerald, FireRed, and LeafGreen versions. Only two exceptions to this rule exist: <code>0x50</code> (っ), which appears as a tall box in those latter 3, and <code>0xAF</code> (・), which appears as itself across all games. | ||
