Description With designs out there already for Johto an Kanto, I thought it'd be a good idea to include Hoenn in the Mix.

The idea behind the design is that each of the three colours represents the Legendary Pokemon that formed the Hoenn region, according to local legend.

The Red represents the Land and Groudon, the Blue represents the Sea and Kyogre. They are of equal size as the two are both vital to support life. They are divided by a green stripe/cross which represents Rayquaza and the sky that is shared between both land and sea. It also seperates the land and water, showing how the two are different, but equally important to each other.

The Star(s) is/are there as I chose not to have a Pokemon as an emblem on the flag. The meaning could be related to a Particular constellation that's prominant in Hoenn, the fact that Hoenn is a 'Shining Star' when compared to the other regions or that the four four pointed stars represent the eight main towns that make up the Hoenn Region. This part is quite open to disscussion.

Well, what do you think? Which design do you like the most? What changes would you recommend?

I say this whole thing should be the flag, the big star being the seat of govt, the rest being states or cities, whatever fits! great design!

Thanks... looking back on this, I'd probably go for something quite different now however it's nice to know these things still have their goods points. c:

Thanks. Personally if you put them all together, to me it looks more like a coat of arms than a nation's flag.

I like the one with just the one star; it kinda symbolizes to me the fact that Hoenn was the first pokemon region not to be directly connected to another (since kanto and johto were connected by land and shared the same basic pokemon) so it made it a 'lone star' so to speak.

I like the top-left one the best, but it would look even better if the colors alternated instead of being on the same side.

I like the bottom left design best, very cool designs overall, and nice to see some stuff about Hoenn

Thanks! That one was the first I came up with.
Would you recommend any changes to the design?

I guess that since I basically fell in love with Pokemon Emerald at first sight, (a relationship that still is as strong as ever) it's only natural that I do things like this...

I think the design is perfect, no changes needed

I love emerald too, i just wish they would remake them so we can enjoy Hoenn in all its DS-greatness!

I was thinking about that, and I had an idea: Could they be waiting for Pokemon's 25th anniversary to release Scorched (?) Ruby and Drenched (?) Sapphire?

YEAH! FROZEN SOOTOPOLIS!!

Synn-Silver In reply to icytemporalist [2011-12-28 13:55:49 +0000 UTC]

They are excellent names too!
I've heard Dusk Ruby and Dawn Sapphire thrown about as well
