*Hoenn designer [[Jun'ichi Masuda]] has explicitly confirmed that Hoenn is modeled after {{wp|Kyushu}}, the fourth of the main islands of Japan, in the 15th article in his [http://www.gamefreak.co.jp/COLUMN/column002.html Director's column]. Indeed, it appears very similar to its real-world counterpart, however rotated 90 degrees. | *Hoenn designer [[Jun'ichi Masuda]] has explicitly confirmed that Hoenn is modeled after {{wp|Kyushu}}, the fourth of the main islands of Japan, in the 15th article in his [http://www.gamefreak.co.jp/COLUMN/column002.html Director's column].

*Masuda's parents were both born in {{wp|Kurate District, Fukuoka|Kurate District}}, {{wp|Fukuoka Prefecture}}, and so he has many relatives in Kyushu. When he was young, he went to Kyushu for his summer vacations. The happy memories he had of Kyushu eventually led him to choose Kyushu as the stage for {{game2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}}. | *Masuda's parents were both born in {{wp|Kurate District, Fukuoka|Kurate District}}, {{wp|Fukuoka Prefecture}}, and so he has many relatives in Kyushu.

**As with Kyushu, Hoenn (a pun on 豊縁 ''hōen'') is a place where the relations (縁 ''en'') between Pokémon and people, between person and person, are abundant (豊 ''hō''). | |||

*Hoenn is also the only main region where one can't get an {{p|Eevee}}. In fact, the [[Generation III]] is the only one who didn't introduce at least one new [[Eeveelution|evolution of Eevee]] | |||

*The [[player character|main character]], at the beginning of the game, is on a moving truck. NPCs in Ruby and Sapphire eventually reveal that [[Norman]], the player's father, and his family moved from the [[Johto]] region so that Norman could take up the [[Gym Leader]] position in [[Petalburg City]]. This dialogue is replaced in Emerald, mentioning instead that Norman's family moved from "somewhere far away". The reference to Johto in Ruby and Sapphire could possibly be a reference to the fact that [[Generation II|the last set]] of Pokémon games mainly took place in Johto, and its replacement in Emerald could possibly be to discourage players from thinking that Johto is accessible in [[Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen Versions|the other games of Generation III]]. | *The [[player character|main character]], at the beginning of the game, is on a moving truck.
