* LooseCanon: The spin-off duology of Colosseum/XD, developed by Creator/GeniusSonority instead of Creator/GameFreak, seems to hold this status. While the main series titles have progressively established that ''all'' of the games take place in a sort of [[TheMultiverse multiverse]][[note]]the Hoenn region in ''VideoGame/PokemonRubyAndSapphire'' canonically exists in its own reality separate from the one in the 3DS remakes, ''Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire''[[/note]], the Orre region is the only region not named anywhere in-text in any of the main games (Pokémon traded from Orre are labeled vaguely as arriving "from a distant land") and no other story elements of the duology are ever mentioned, outside of Shadow Pokemon appearing in the spin-off VideoGame/PokemonGO.

* The only species snaggable in both games, not counting Togepi and Mareep, which were E-Reader events in Japan, is Makuhita. However, many families are in both: Swablu/Altaria, Houndour/Houndoom, Slugma/Magcargo, Ledyba/Ledian, Piloswine/Swinub, Pineco/Forretress, Teddiursa/Ursaring, Spiarak/Ariados, and the [[FanNickname Hitmons]]. Others can be obtained in both via trade or [=PokéSpots=] (in XD).

* NoExportForYou: The Japanese Bonus Disc allows players to get Celebi, but for the American release, Jirachi was made available instead. PAL areas, however, didn't get the Bonus Disc at all (Jirachi being made available via ''VideoGame/PokemonChannel'' instead). Players in both regions who wanted Celebi had no luck at all.

* A shiny Pokémon from this game is one of the rarest shinies in the entire franchise. Shadow Pokémon can be shiny but it is impossible to tell until they have been captured whether they actually are. Any opposing Shadow Pokémon that appear shiny are almost certainly going to revert back to regular coloring once actually checked.

* WhatCouldHaveBeen:
** Text data exists in the coding for several more Shadow Pokémon, including a Shadow Minun to go with Duking's Plusle.
** Rui actually has an [[https://latealzalost.tumblr.com/post/186064710219/rui-has-an-hd-model-for-battling-and-data-for HD model for battling and data for standing behind her own Pokemon]] though lacks a Poke Ball throwing animation or intro animation of her own, implying a battle with or perhaps against her was cut during development.
