While non-English and non-Japanese characters cannot normally be used in the Generation III games, they do occur in some [[in-game trade]]s and preset player names. If a Pokémon has a nickname or [[original Trainer]] that has one of these characters, it will be turned into a kana character in the Western Generation IV games due to [[List of glitches in Generation IV#Pal Park name encoding glitch|encoding issues]].

When a Pokémon is transferred, its location becomes simply the name of the region that is the primary setting of the game in which it was caught, rather than the exact location it was caught. A Pokémon caught in {{game|Emerald}} will have its location listed as Hoenn, regardless of whether it was caught in [[Hoenn]] or the [[Sevii Islands]]' [[Navel Rock]] or [[Birth Island]] (which are located in [[Kanto]]). In addition, the level obtained at is changed to the level arrived at. Due to the lack of a met date in the Generation III games, the date obtained becomes the date it was caught in the Catching Show.
Pal Park only reads the data of the game the Pokémon was originally generated in, rather than its in-game met location. This sets any Pokémon created in FireRed or LeafGreen to [[Kanto]]; Ruby, Sapphire, or Emerald to [[Hoenn]] (even if it was caught on [[Navel Rock]] or [[Birth Island]], which are located in [[Kanto]]); and Colosseum or XD to "[[Orre|distant land]]". (Pokémon obtained from [[Wonder Card]]s are treated as being created in the game they were received in.) A Pokémon whose Egg is created in a game based in one region and traded to another region before it was hatched will display the name of the region it was generated in, rather than the one it was hatched in; this means that a Pokémon generated in Emerald but hatched in FireRed will have the OT and ID of the FireRed player but list that it was met in Hoenn.
