no. britains influence in the area was a net positive even if you subtract the troubles that resulted from haphazardly placing a line between india and pakistan.
They're never doing a non Western or Japanese country. Not to mention the real world isn't reflected in the games, otherwise Unova would have a colonization story yet it didn, all it had was that ancient Kings/pseudo medieval story going on. Only Sinnoh has so far and they avoided all references to it
> Unova would have a colonization story yet it didn,
meh. we either missed the BE ASHAMED OF YOUR ANCESTORS arc or its yet to happen as of G5, put its most definitely in unovas timeline somewhere, gamefreak just desided to to focus on fleshing out the pokemon-human relationship instead of tired, boring ass communist power grab technique.
I suppose. Colonization would be the worst topic the address in a Pokémon game other than war (which is one reason I don't love Kalos's lore personally). I just can't see it meshing well with what makes Pokémon games appealing to me. Because it would exist in the uncanny valley where it's too serious of a topic for them to address with any meaningful, realistic depth, so we'd get a weird tonal dissonance. I don't get why a regions history has to reflect the real world personally. Like afaik New York doesn't have much Zen Buddhist influence yet the box legendaries are designed based on it.
yep
the real world history is simply far too uncomfortable for the masses to consume
they will also simply never do it because it will upset timmy chuds who dont want to face the reality of our world, claiming it is some woke crt shit or something even though it all happened
They pick regions based on the most common Japanese tourist destinations. We're probably either getting another North American region like California or Canada, or Australia imo.
Unova includes all the American elements known by foreigners, just cope with the fact that there will be no game based on the Kardashian or on the people of the swamp that marries the opossum
Nothing is on the level of Strange Souvenir in Alola. Just people looking for another example. The same with counting a backpacker who speaks Spanish when characters who speak foreign languages are rather common in Pokémon games starting with Lt. Surge.
In Paldea there is a professor who greets us in English, French, Spanish and Italian.
Italian is the only language not currently represented by a region so that could be a clue
I mostly agree
Italy and Germany are likely happening someday, but I think they want to take a break from Europe for Gen 10
Doubt it would be Brazil either since it feels same-ish with Spain
Central African Empire (1976-1979)
The indigo savanna will be the closest we get to anything of Africa.
India pre-galar colonization
Wait, is Britain for the state India is in?
*to blame
no. britains influence in the area was a net positive even if you subtract the troubles that resulted from haphazardly placing a line between india and pakistan.
yes
incel thinktank opinions dont matter

Uncomfortable? I want stories where Black folk are enslaved and israelites are atomized, that's just historically accurate.
taiwan
genuinely? India. I think they're leading up to it.

Mew is from Guyana. Guyana canonically exists in Pokémon.
HOLLAND
You'll get your tulip Pokémon and your gimmick where every Pokémon gets super lanky and tall and you'll like it
Sorry chud, best I can do is Benelux.
I bet Arvens gonna see his parent by the crystal lake.
California or Australia
The snake and way cooler and straighter lucario are awesome but not too sure about the tentacruel and arbok
It’s definitely got some cool fakemons
I actually love that green snake
Western Europe
Unova includes all of the continental USA, between Hollywood and the Wild West there is nothing left to represent the United States
huge claim. morono claim.
Huge cope
unova is literally just israelite york. orre is literally just arizona. you are moronic.
Unova includes all the American elements known by foreigners, just cope with the fact that there will be no game based on the Kardashian or on the people of the swamp that marries the opossum
No where. They should make up everything from scratch.
Indonesia
Greece
Genuine question; Is there any clue to the next region in SV? Previously we had a tiki in G6, a punk musician in G7, a girl speaking Spanish in G8.
Because so far there are only a lot of nods to Unova
I don't think Ryuki was actually a Galar reference though.
Ryuki is from Kanto, but everything about his outfit screamed England, I remember many anon pointing this out long before SWSH was announced.
But let's say you're right, so what was the clue in Alola?
Nothing is on the level of Strange Souvenir in Alola. Just people looking for another example. The same with counting a backpacker who speaks Spanish when characters who speak foreign languages are rather common in Pokémon games starting with Lt. Surge.
In the anime, an image of a city similar to London was shown.
That was probably the clearest clue
We probably just don’t know what it is
think there's some Australia teases but only as ingame pics
In Paldea there is a professor who greets us in English, French, Spanish and Italian.
Italian is the only language not currently represented by a region so that could be a clue
It sounds plausible, nips loves Italy, the coliseum, venice, and we can make the Vatican in the villain team like in Hellsing, amen.
>Vatican in the villain team
I hope not, it would be trivial, plus I want the nurses in a cute nun dress
Evil vatican have ninja nuns
if tis europe again iceland would be cool and the puffin pokemon would the first ice/fire pokemon, and viking theme
you forgot about g-darmanitan zen?
I demand another Typhlosion form in that case.
why
Because he’s the volcano pokemon
Volcanion
Egipt
complete with a dio mon and everything
Canada or Australia.
Please give me Mesomon. Kickstart it, I don't care if it's official.
Here's my thoughts
I mostly agree
Italy and Germany are likely happening someday, but I think they want to take a break from Europe for Gen 10
Doubt it would be Brazil either since it feels same-ish with Spain
So either Australia, China or Japan.
At this point I think they want to complete pokeurope, it's a popular area, not problematic and with a recognizable culture and monuments/symbols
Arizona being included is a huge cope. Any area covered by a spin off game isn't canon
It doesn’t even have to be all Roman themed. I just want to explore Pokémon Mediterranean
