* The fact that the map description references a snowy climate and that the name of the city is a corruption of "[[wiktionary:striation|striation]]" (scratches left in rock from glacial friction) is likely a reference to {{wp|Long Island}}, which was formed by glacial deposits during {{wp|Quaternary glaciation|the ice age}}. Moreover, the position of Long Island relative to Manhattan is nearly identical to the position of the east peninsula of Unova relative to the central region, which was based on Manhattan.
* Despite {{p|Pikachu}} not being native to the [[Unova]] [[region]], Pikachu-shaped hedges can be found in the garden. This is one of the few cameo appearances of Pikachu in [[Generation V]].

* In {{2v2|Black|White|2}}, tame {{p|Stunfisk}} appear in the garden at night in the summer. This could be a reference to the {{pkmn|anime}}, where {{an|Cilan}} owns a {{TP|Cilan|Stunfisk}}.
