The '''Hoenn''' region (Japanese: '''{{tt|ホウエン地方|ホウエンちほう}}''' ''Hoenn-chihō'') is a [[region]] of the [[Pokémon world]]. It is located south of [[Sinnoh]]<!--AG187-->. It is the setting of [[Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire Versions|Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire]], {{v2|Emerald}}, [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire|Omega Ruby, and Alpha Sapphire]]. It was the third [[core series]] region to be introduced.

Hoenn is inspired by the real-world Japanese main island of {{wp|Kyushu}}. The names of most of the cities in Hoenn are made of two words put together (Little Root, Fort Tree, Slate Port, Ever Grande, etc.) rather than colors or plants as [[Kanto]] and [[Johto]] had done. [[Professor Birch]] of [[Littleroot Town]] offers the [[first partner Pokémon]] known as {{p|Treecko}}, {{p|Torchic}}, or {{p|Mudkip}} to {{pkmn|Trainer}}s beginning their journey of this vast land.

==Etymology and design concept==
[[File:Pokemon-to-real-world.png|thumb|left|150px|The map of Japan showing the Hoenn region as {{wp|Kyushu}}]]
===Etymology===
[[Junichi Masuda]] has stated that Hoenn's name signifies "abundant relations" (豊縁 ''hōen''), as a common theme in this region is the relationships forged between Pokémon and people.<ref name=masuda>Hidden Power of Masuda: No. 15 [http://www.gamefreak.co.jp/blog/dir/?p=105 (Japanese)] / [http://www.gamefreak.co.jp/blog/dir_english/2004/09/index.html (English)]</ref>

===Design concept===
The Hoenn region is based on the real-world Japanese main island of {{wp|Kyushu}}, rotated 90° counterclockwise. Junichi Masuda stated that the reason Kyushu was rotated 90° to create Hoenn was to increase playability.<ref name=masuda/>
{{left clear}}

==History==
Hoenn was created after [[Primal Reversion|Primal]] {{p|Groudon}} and Primal {{p|Kyogre}} were formed. Primal Groudon raised the landmasses and Primal Kyogre filled the seas that would later become Hoenn. A meeting between these two caused a great battle for supremacy until it was quelled by [[Mega Evolution|Mega]] {{p|Rayquaza}}, sending Primal Groudon and Primal Kyogre into caverns where they rested until they were awakened many years later during the course of events in [[Generation III]] or [[Generation VI]]. The moving of the continents by {{p|Regigigas}} created Hoenn, and when Regigigas was sent to sleep in the [[Snowpoint Temple]] in [[Sinnoh]], {{p|Regirock}}, {{p|Registeel}}, and {{p|Regice}}, the keys to awakening it, were sealed away in Hoenn.

In contemporary history, {{ga|Brendan}}/{{ga|May}} moved to [[Littleroot Town]] in Hoenn from [[Johto]]. Brendan/May encountered May/Brendan, competing with Brendan/May to complete the Pokédex. Brendan/May saved [[Professor Birch]] from a Poochyena{{sup/3|RS}}{{sup/6|ORAS}}/Zigzagoon{{sup/3|E}} with a {{p|Torchic}}, {{p|Mudkip}}, or {{p|Treecko}} from Professor Birch's bag; as a reward for saving him, he gave Brendan/May a [[Pokédex]] and allowed them to keep the Pokémon that they used to save him. Brendan/May traveled across Hoenn, occasionally encountering and defeating [[Team Aqua]] and [[Team Magma]]. Team Magma{{sup/3|R}}{{sup/3|E}}{{sup/6|OR}} and/or Team Aqua{{sup/3|S}}{{sup/3|E}}{{sup/6|AS}} successfully awakened {{p|Groudon}}{{sup/3|R}}{{sup/3|E}}{{sup/6|OR}} and/or {{p|Kyogre}}{{sup/3|S}}{{sup/3|E}}{{sup/6|AS}}, which caused the region of Hoenn to be plagued by {{weather|harsh sunlight}}{{sup/3|R}}{{sup/6|OR}}, {{weather|heavy rain}}{{sup/3|S}}{{sup/6|AS}} or a strange mixture of both{{sup/3|E}}. However, Brendan/May successfully calmed the weather Pokémon when they defeated it{{sup/3|RS}}{{sup/6|ORAS}} or summoned {{p|Rayquaza}} to calm them{{sup/3|E}}. Brendan/May then proceeded to win at the Pokémon League and become the Champion, and was invited to compete in the {{gdis|Battle Frontier|III}}{{sup/3|E}}.

Upon becoming the Champion, a meteor changed course towards Hoenn{{sup/6|ORAS}}. May's/Brendan's, [[Wally]]'s, and [[Archie]]'s{{sup/6|AS}}/[[Maxie]]'s{{sup/6|OR}} [[Key Stone]]s were stolen by [[Zinnia]] in an attempt to summon {{p|Rayquaza}} to avert the crisis. Brendan/May encountered Zinnia at [[Sky Pillar]] and successfully summoned Rayquaza. Brendan/May gave Rayquaza the power to [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolve]] and it destroyed the meteor.

==Cities, routes, and other locations==
Hoenn has sixteen [[List of cities and towns|cities and towns]], including a [[Ever Grande City|Pokémon League]]. Since the majority of the cities and towns of Hoenn are immersed into nature, there aren't many large cities comparable to [[Unova]]'s [[Castelia City]] or [[Kalos]]'s [[Lumiose City]], with the largest city being [[Lilycove City]]{{sup/3|RSE}}/[[Mauville City]]{{sup/6|ORAS}}.

The Hoenn region has 34 different [[route]]s, which are passages permitting Trainers to travel from one location to the next with relative ease. Much like [[Sinnoh]] after it, Hoenn's routes are numbered so that they don't follow sequence directly from previously-known regions' routes. Routes in Hoenn are numbered from {{rtn|101|Hoenn}} to {{rtn|134|Hoenn}}. Compared to other regions, Hoenn features an abundance of sea routes. This gives the impression that the Hoenn region is half-water and half-land, which references the battle of Groudon and Kyogre.

The Hoenn region is unique and famous for its tropical-like environments. The region does not feature a true mountain range like in Sinnoh and other regions. Hoenn introduced many new natural environments including a volcano, a jungle, a beach, a desert, and many more. The Hoenn region also introduced the idea of routes with differing [[weather]], including constant rainfall, thunderstorms, falling ash, and rays of sunlight.

===Demographics===
The towns, cities, and areas of the Hoenn region's total population in {{2v2|Ruby|Sapphire}} is 598. In [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]], the total population of  Hoenn's towns, cities, and areas is 694.

===Routes===
Routes in Hoenn number are numbered as {{rtn|101|Hoenn}}-{{rtn|134|Hoenn}}, breaking the former pattern set up by Kanto and Johto. This is presumably to discourage the idea of being able to travel back to either region after completion of the game, as was done in [[Generation II]] and as a mirror of the fact that Japan's road system possesses a similar gap. Some of the routes have differing [[weather]] depending on the day they are traveled on.

==Geography==
===Environment===
[[File:HoennIIIE.png|thumb|left|220px|Hoenn in Emerald]]
The Hoenn region boasts many dramatic environments from [[Hoenn Route 119| rainforests]] to [[Hoenn Route 111|deserts]], but its most striking feature is its abundance of water, a strong contrast to other core series regions, especially Sinnoh. Much of the region is covered in water, almost equal in size to the mainland, exemplifying the theme of the games. There are several large and populated islands off the mainland only accessible via [[water route]]s, many of which are deep enough for {{m|Dive|diving}}.

Much of the interior area is forested or mountainous, so most notable cities are found on the coastline. People who live in towns and villages in the mountain areas must adapt to the harsh environment. An extreme example of this is the inhabitants of [[Fortree City]], who live in tree houses. This is in stark contrast to other regions in the [[Pokémon world]], as noted by {{adv|Ruby}} in [[Pokémon Adventures]], who preferred Johto's many modernized cities to the wilderness and countryside in Hoenn. Hoenn has one active volcano, [[Mt. Chimney]], in the northwest of the region. The ash from Mt. Chimney regularly falls on the nearby towns and routes. On the opposite side of the Hoenn region lies the impact crater which [[Sootopolis City]] was built in.

Some of Hoenn's newly discovered Pokémon strongly reflect the influence of the primarily tropical environment.

[[File:Hoenn Anime.png|thumb|250px|Anime-based map of the Hoenn region]]

===Climate===
Hoenn seems to have a warmer climate than other regions, similar to an equatorial climate. This may mean that Hoenn is located closer to the equator than the other regions.

The mainland experiences a wide variety of weather across its breadth. Ashes constantly fall around [[Mt. Chimney]] in the northwest. Constant, extreme {{weather|sandstorm}}s afflict the arid desert near its center. Frequent {{weather|rain}} falls on the mainland's northeastern areas, nourishing the rainforests and {{DL|tall grass|long grass}} that grow there.
