'''Braille''' is a method of communication that uses raised dots as characters. Each letter of the English alphabet, along with the period and the comma, is represented by a two-by-three series of raised dots. In the [[Pokémon games]], this is expressed as a strictly visual collection of dots to act as a cipher. | '''Braille''' is a method of communication that uses raised dots as characters.

Braille inscriptions are also present in [[Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen Versions|FireRed and LeafGreen]], where the player needs to find the {{key|III|Ruby}} and the {{key|III|Sapphire}}. The first inscriptions are found where the Ruby lies, featuring the entire alphabet, then focusing on the meaning of life; the next inscriptions found give instructions leading to the Sapphire, then narrate the purpose of these two items combined by two people. This possibly references [[Bill]] and [[Celio]], who use the aftermentioned items to create a device that allows FireRed and LeafGreen to be compatible for [[Trade|trading]] with Ruby, Sapphire and Emerald. | Braille inscriptions are also present in [[Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen Versions|FireRed and LeafGreen]], where the player needs to find the {{key|III|Ruby}} and the {{key|III|Sapphire}}.
