>>58274672Wow anime Littleroot looks ironically huge. Pokespe Littleroot houses are literal log houses, with two storeys and a balcony, the town's supposed to be rural. Birch's lab in the manga is also a log cabin. There's also how manga Birch spends more time outdoors than indoors, just like Sapphire does.
A big part of Sapphire's identity is also being a a country bumpkin taken to the extreme, so even when she's not Tarzan roleplaying in of Route 101's jungle, the hometown where she was born (Littleroot) is still considered rural. Ruby is the opposite where he's from a foreign city, but has also moved around a lot in general, making it hard for him to settle down in one place or commit to anything long term. This difference creates one of Ruby and Sapphire's biggest ideological conflicts. But it typically gets resolved by Ruby deciding to follow Sapphire's lead, returning to the Littleroot Town he once tried to escape, all because he is now the #1 Sapphire simp and wants to be with her.
