Braille
Braille is a method of communication that uses raised dots as characters. Each letter of the English alphabet, along with the period and the comma, is represented by a two-by-three series of raised dots. In Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald, a strictly visual form of Braille is used to encode the instructions for opening the chambers that contain the three Regis. Braille inscriptions are also present in the Sevii Islands, where the Ruby and the Sapphire lie.

Trivia
- The message at the bottom floor of the Dotted Hole is possibly a reference to Bill and Celio creating a device that allows trade between FireRed/LeafGreen and Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald by using the Ruby and Sapphire Key Items found on the Sevii Islands.
