Trivia

 * Haru is so far, the only known member of the Furo League who's last name is known.
 * Haru's full name, Haru Hiraku, comes from two Japanese words. Haru itself, means "Spring," and references Haru's preference for the Grass type; seeing as plants typically regrow during spring. Hiraku can mean "Open" or "Pioneer" in Japanese, which is supposed to be a reference to Haru's grandfather, Professor Hiraku, introducing new trainers to the wide world of Pokémon training, and the Furo region in general.
