*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 was the first region to introduce its own [[Hoenn Dex|regional Pokédex]], who didn't include ''all'' the known Pokémon at the time, unlike the older [[Johto Dex]]
* 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|Eevee's evolution]]


*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]].
