*Black and White's lack of connectivity to Generation III serves as a sign in itself.  
*In the first Diamond & Pearl special, [[Dawn]] decides to travel to [[Hoenn]] to compete in [[Pokémon Contests]] there, just like [[May]] traveled to [[Johto]] for the same reason after the end of the Advanced Generation series.
=== HGSS ===
*In the [[Generation II]] remakes, [[HeartGold and SoulSilver]], in the Cerulean Cave, there are large emerald formations, and, if one goes deeper into the cave, a large emerald maze.

*If you talk to one of the people in the Celadon Mansion, they will say "We are remaking an old game, but this is quite a challenge. Old fans would not want usw to mess with their good memories...". Some people I've say they're actually talking about HGSS. I believe it's a potential Ruby/Sapphire remake.
*All the Pokémon Centers have a green colored Poké Ball on the floor, similar to the Gold and Silver Poké Ball on the Pokémon Center floors in Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum.
*The Root and Claw Fossils are on display in the Pewter City Museum of Science.
*Hoenn Sound, the sound of Route 101, can be played on the Pokégear, and attracts Hoenn Pokémon to the player.
*[[Bill]] mentions [[Lanette]] (who, in turn, mentioned him in Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald), and the Hoenn Region.

*Black and White's lack of connectivity to Generation III serves as a sign in itself.
*In [[Black and White]], there are multiple hints, with several people make references to Hoenn. In [[Undella Town]], several people who only visit during the summer are said to come from Hoenn. The [[The Riches]] are also very similar to the [[Winstrate Family]] from Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald.

*Also, there are similarties between the Surfing parts of [[Unova Route 18|Route 18]] in Unova (with the currents and small shallow waters) that resemble area of open ocean in Hoenn.

*The player needs special objects to summon the Legendary Pokémon of the Unova Region, [[Zekrom]] and [[Reshiram]], who use the [[Dark Stone]] and the [[Light Stone]] respectively. [[Groudon]] and [[Kyogre]] are both summoned (and enraged) with the [[Blue Orb|Blue]] and [[Red Orb]] respectively (in Emerald only, in HGSS, the player merely encounters them with the respective Orb), and [[Rayquaza]]is encountered with the [[Jade Orb]].
*An [[Armaldo]] fossil is shown in the [[Nacrene Gym|Nacrene City Pokémon Gym]].

The battery in Emerald (I'm not so sure about Ruby and Sapphire, they seem to be working), can run dry, making all time based events (such as the evolution of Eevee, Berry growing, and being able to reach Mirage Island), impossible. If Generation III remakes do appear. Also, there are some TMs that have been retained (I did not notice this, I read it somewhere). Rock Tomb ([[Roxanne]]), Bulk Up ([[Brawly]]), Overheat ([[Flannery]]), Facade ([[Norman]]), Aerial Ace ([[Winona]]), and Calm Mind ([[Tate and Liza]]). Watson and Wallace do not have their original TMs retained, so it is likely they will be replaced with Generation V TMs. What I am reading suggests Wild Bolt and Scald respectively.

Nintendo also seems to have a pattern of remaking games every ten years. In 2012, it will have been ten years since Ruby and Sapphire's original release date, if I am not mistaken.
