5!!This game provides examples of:
6* AdaptationalNameChange: [[VideoGame/PokemonGoldAndSilver Ethan]], [[VideoGame/PokemonDiamondAndPearl Lucas]], and [[VideoGame/PokemonBlackAndWhite Hilbert]] appear, and are referred to as Kenta, Diamond, and Blair, respectively.
7* AdventurerArchaeologist: Rochelle is a gym leader and archaeologist.

12* BubblegloopSwamp: Route 406 is a large, rainy swamp.
13* CommonplaceRare: Poké Balls. No, not the much better Great Ball and Ultra Balls, but the ''regular variant''. Those five balls you get at the start of the game? Have fun using them. Normal Poké Balls are only sold at Flamerny City Pokéball Factory, which is in the ''Lauren Region''. Central City doesn't even sell the common balls in their Poké Mart, while every other accessible Poké Mart either sells Great Balls and better, or only have the rarer ''Premier Balls'' being sold.

20* EldritchLocation: The Distortion World, as in ''Pokémon Platinum''.
21* EscapedAnimalRampage: Several Pokémon have escaped from Ricyan City's zoo and you have to find them before Soka will face you.
22* FloatingContinent: Skyner City was built above the clouds.
23* GameplayAndStorySegregation:

25** Blair flies away on his Staraptor even though it wasn't on his team during the battle he had with you.
26* HeroicMime: Averted with the player character.
27* AnIcePerson: Gym leader Sophia specializes in Ice types.
28* InevitableTournament: [[spoiler: The last event of the game is the World Championship, where you face Ash Ketchum as the final trainer.]]

45* TakeOverTheWorld: Team Steam's goal is to conquer the world.
46* UnderTheSea: Parts of Zhery's Victory Road take place underwater.
47* WelcomeToCorneria: A variation in a series where [[TalkToEveryone talking to everyone in a town would lead you to what's next]]. While a bunch of NPC characters that aren't important to the story do have something unique to say to you at times, several NPC characters share the same messages with other NPC characters, ''even if they are right next to each other''. This leads to only major [=NPCs=] having unique dialogue while the rest of them often share the same dialogue.
