I like this one
this one is fine albeit basic
Kitakami is a volcanic island, Oni Mountain is a semi active volcano
Anon Kitakami is literally a real place in the Tohoku region, Japan. It's mainland like Kanto or Johto
>It's based on a real life place therefore its location must be 1:1 to the actual thing
Where are all the Paradoxes in Madrid?
yaaaaawn
I humbly accept your concession
It doesn't have to be an 1:1 (see the orientation of the places, like Hoenn) but so far if it's a peninsula irl, it's a peninsula in the games, if it's an island irl, it's an island in the games, etc.
There's not a single reason to think Kitakami is magically changing this and being a solitary island separated from the mainland. You can even look at the rest of the country extending over Kitakami's own borders
it's just yawngay, don't let him bait you
>Bloodmoon Ursaluna drifted across seas to arrive to Kitakami
>Pecharunt and his gang traversed fields, climbed mountains and crossed the sea to arrive to Kitakami
Do you see a pattern here? Regardless of whether you're coming from Sinnoh or whatever region this is (which you can reasonably assume is also PokeJapan) you have to cross a large body of water to get to Kitakami. Because it's not the mainland.
>You can even look at the rest of the country extending over Kitakami's own borders
Well duh Kitakami is not a whole region and is never treated as one. Focus on Mount Lanakila and you will also see the land extending over its border, doesn't mean Ula Ula is not an island.
hey dipshit, japan is an island
Japan is five large islands and a myriad of smaller ones
>PokeJapan
You're as bad as the anon you're arguing against.
morono... Sinnoh IS a small island north of Japan mainland. Ursaluna had to cross the sea no matter what region it went to. So your only argument is that since Pecharunt had crossed a sea, that means Kitakami is confirmed to be an island, which is just idiotic because there are zero sources for Pecharunt's hometown and thus he can easily come from a small island himself.
There are a shitton of island where he could have come from.
>It's safer to assume everything but Kitakami (a secluded land where everyone is racist towards outsiders) must be a small island off my own expectations that GF has to maintain geographical accuracy, in the same game where they had a mishmash of every spanish major city by putting Puerta del Sol and Sagrada Familia all in Zaragoza
You do you anon
>mixing regions with cities (and still no geological change)
>thinking the only way a RURAL JAPANESE VILLAGE can have a single girl against tourists is if it's in an island
You are a moron, bro, sorry to be the one to break this on you. Pecharunt crossed the sea in his long travel to arrive to a place literally named after part of a country's mainland, that's literally the only "source" you have to call it a separate island.
>a single girl against tourists
Why the frick do you think Ogerpon and the man were made to wear masks and live in a cave you mouthbreather
You mean HUNDREDS OF YEARS ago? Yeah, there's no way Kitakami isn't an island, it's the only way rural nips from hundreds years in the past were xenophobic kek
>It was long ago so it didn't happen
Cool revisionism, sure showed me
>it's the only way
>only point of reference for its location within the pokemon world itself is two pokemon traveling there from different regions and both had to cross the sea
>secluded enough that the general populace is distrustful towards outsiders, and basically only let it pass because money from tourism is more important
>Its geography makes sense for a volcanic island considering the giant fricking volcano that is the region's main landmark
Meanwhile your only argument towards it being in the mainland is that it's a real life place, which is moot because GF ignores that all the fricking time
>didn't happen
That's not what anyone is saying you inbreed moron, I'm saying xenophobia in Japan of old doesn't need any excuse like an island. For the record
>"In the old days, everyone carried masks wherever they went. And...the one who made those masks was actually my great-great-great-grandpa’s great-great-great-grandpa...or something."
Ogerpon's tale is 10 generations old. With an average of 25 years per generation, Ogerpon suffered xenophobia 250 fricking years ago, just starting the Meiwa era. This was Japan in the Meiwa era. But yeah, it would be pretty weird for Meiwa era Kitakami to be xenophobic towards spaniards, uh? It has to be a remote island after all.
And no, GF doesn't ignore geology. Unova fits with New York. Paldea fits with Spain's peninsula and Portugal. Kalos fits with France. Galar and even the isle of armor fit in Britbongland and isle of men. Everything fits, except Kitakami, which doesn't fit in Kitakami. Sure.
I know, I will, this is the last reply. I just had to shout this out, morons like this guy infuriate me.
just stop replying to him dude, he's an idiot
>Why the frick do you think Ogerpon and the man were made to wear masks and live in a cave you mouthbreather
If we look back at LA, people weren't always fond of Pokemon because they posed a real threat to their survival. I think that Ogrepon being mistreated tracks with the idea that it took time for Pokemon to be understood by people across the world. The villagers accept Ogrepon in with literally no push back or challenge as soon as Kieran tells them too.
But they wore pokemon-themed masks and had no issue worshipping a trio of pokemon for supposedly protecting the village from the ogre. They didn't have a problem with Pokemon, they had a problem with outsiders
The point is that they never really stopped being xenophobic, sure Carmine is the most overt example as a main character and all, but you have trainers in Kitakami acting similarly.
>GF doesn't ignore geology
They have no reason to follow it as autistically as you expect them to. Where's Area Zero in Spain? Where's Sevii islands in Kanto? Where's Blueberry Academy in USA? Where's Aether Paradise in Hawaii? Kitakami isn't even an actual region, it's merely an extra DLC chapter. They have no reason whatsoever to reveal its location beyond vague hints and references.
>Where's Sevii islands in Kanto?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Izu_Islands
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bonin_Islands
kitakami is a real, landlocked place in japan lol
Why do Johto and Kanto share the same flag even though they are different regions?
same pokemon league I guess
domestic partnership
Hoenn is angled wrong, it isn't like real life.
why do these have pictures of pokegirls embedded in the? It's not even hidden porn, both are fully clothed.
what?
Meds
I didn't know you could still post images with embedded things in them on Ganker
what are you talking about
here's a better one
We already know these are false though.
Australia when?
These.
Russia was in pokemon?!
The Ainu people deserve to be free from the russian and japanese colonizers and oppressors
Yes, the tiski branch
Battle Zone in DPP and Tiksi or Ponaya region in Japanese G1 (ポナヤツングスカ)
There should be a Great Crater of Galar and a Great Crater of Kalos too.
Cry harder bugman
Wtf?
Does Vichy France exist in the Pokemon world????
I mean...arent Team Flare supposed to be nazis? With the whole holocaster thing?
So that's where their main recruits come from
Why is it that every single homosexual who loves the taste of Putins semen, also happens to be schizophrenic?
>uses /gif/
>talks about other mens cum
Ironic war troonys needs to go back
I dont use /gif/ and I didn't post that webm, schizo. Oddly, you seem to know exactly what gets posted on that board. Also, stop gargling Putins cum and people will stop bringing it up.
Is he okay?
Just a flesh wound. He walked it off and returned to base under his own power.
pokemon?
Yes
Yes
>pidors and holols in my thread
I can't wait for ww3 so your kind goes extinct
Already going, buddy.
>getting mad at a meme
obsessed
And you're gay. I accept your concession.
why is unova so fricking huge
It's literally the smallest on the pic
I like the ones that take huge liberties in their world building, rather than trying to fit it on an exact copy of Earth.
>world bulding
>it's just all the regions crammed together
I don't like the IRL versions either, but that's ass. A lot of those don't even make sense in their locations (not to mention Ransei for example doesn't take place in the usual pokemon world)
>pasio
Extreme liberties it seems.
>White City
There is no White City, it's Black City.
Pokemon Stadium 2.
How the frick this franchise despite being about 30 y.o. still does not have any normal world map instead of fan made coloring maps? Is it really so difficult to plan at least some rough outlines of them?
Unironically hundred times better than dumb-ass using straight up Earth map
>How the frick this franchise despite being about 30 y.o. still does not have any normal world map instead of fan made coloring maps?
Because the franchise isn't made by western roleplayers but by people who understand that by doing such a thing they limit what they can come up with in the future.
What about all the time the games use straight up earth gloves, moron?
Galar shouldve included Ireland because oppressing the irish is based
This is pretty much the confirmed pokemon world map at this point.
Image for ants
I didn't make it myself, kids.
Stop shilling your shitty ma-
>Aloha
Holy shit the moron who made this should unironically kill himself
you can see that they have gloves in the game and they look nothing like this
>muh gts
real world reference disproven by kalos being swimmable from hoenn
No there some insane people that do swim across oceans. Someone irl just jogged across the entire continent of Africa
Not without a break. I guarantee you no human can swim from France to fricking Japan.
It's also I video game that's always been set in a parrel version of Earth
>outdated retconned info
>Sakhalin (Russian: Caхaлин, IPA: [səxɐˈlʲin]) is an island in Northeast Asia. Its north coast lies 6.5 km (4.0 mi) off the southeastern coast of Khabarovsk Krai in Russia, while its southern tip lies 40 kilometres (25 mi) north of Japan's Hokkaido.
It's part of Russia, if you don't like it go and get it back with the Japanese army, oh wait,
>Article 9 of the Japanese Constitution prohibits Japan from establishing a military or solving international conflicts through violence.
it's true the Japanese army no longer exists!
I may harbor a strong dislike for Russia as a polity but the haters of Russian individuals sounds so very much like Redditors it's unreal.
You know what redditards really do say?
>I don't hate muh russian """people""" just their government, look how tolerant I am, goys! I'm not lacist towards the ching chongs who own reddit, just the government!
Anyone who didn't massacre an authoritarian gommunist "government" deserves every bit of suffering they get.
Reddit is infamous for calling for the deaths of Russian PoWs and commiting infamy.
>muh poor poor pidor POWs! We should be more tolerant of Blacks who break into other people's homes, and immigrants who had the nerve to invade other people's countries!
Gee, I wonder who really did come from reddit. In fact, I know exactly which subreddit you're from: r/TheDonald. And like the Black folk who barge into the homes of their betters, you had the nerve to come here in 2016.
Why the frick is Naganadel counted as a Legendary here?
Thou shalt never be Japanese
>wanting to be rather than to do
Soulless homunculus. The world clearly is not your oyster.
Ah, you're like that angry cartoonist with a complex about his small penis living in America.
>tfw any mediocre white guy can get an asian more attractive than him because of fetishism
Whites truely are the Black folk of asia
Konichiwa, dude!
That guy's a Filipino, he just projects his seethe onto every other Asian ethnicity too.
>he just projects his seethe onto every other Asian ethnicity
I've noticed that all locally born asian immigrants seem to do this, especially if they are SEA (real east-asians like Japanese rarely immigrate)
One word: garlic. HungAryans are garlic addicted Asians.
Give me a southern US state region.
>starting town is a trailer park
>your mom is also your sister
Would be a nice way to shake up the formula, I guess
Orre exist
The O-word!
You basically have three potential Southern US regions:
>Eastern Seaboard, using some combination or part of Maryland, Delaware, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Georgia. Lots of variety, heavy focus on forests, mountains, sea, and swamp, lots of famous urban areas and history to use. I doubt they'll reference the Civil War directly even if it and its after effects is one of the central cornerstones of the region's identity and history in reality
>Gulf Coast, using some combination of Alabama, Mississippi, Arkansas, and Louisiana. Can also potentially include eastern Texas. Much bigger focus on swamps and forests, potentially including the Mississippi as a central regional feature with a lot of travel/trade along it as you explore the region, giving an entirely new flavor to the region. Culturally and historically has a lot in common with the above, but also its own unique flavors (like the heavy French influence.)
>Florida. Florida is like the above two with more Spanish influence, they can also reference all the old people retirement shit and Disneyland etc. Florida can be part of either two of the above regions but is also big/famous enough to be turned into its own region, so I feel like I can include it.
Worth noting there can be some trade here. Eg Georgia and Tennessee being part of a Gulf region, including Tennessee, Kentucky, and West Virginia in a Seaboard region (really depends how BIG of an area they want to cover) etc.
When people say 'the south' they mean 'the old south', aka the southeast below the Mason-Dixon Line. When people mean the former Mexican territory they usually call it 'the Southwest'. Note that Texas and Oklahoma (the Indian Territory at the time) most commonly and Arizona and New Mexico (also territories at the time, not states) occasionally also get included in 'the South' because of their allegiance to the Confederacy during the Civil War, but this gets less common as time goes on.
I like how maryland is technically "southern" but delaware isn't due to the mason dixon
Delaware has a unique history, it's worth looking into if you ever have the time. Weird little state.
Louisiana could be awesome!
I particularly like the possibility of using the Mississippi as a central regional feature/avenue of travel, which makes me want to include its entire length and not just the Southern portion. That said, almost any region COULD be awesome, if Gamefreak bothered to give it a respectful or a least fun treatment (unlike what GB and Spain got.)
Anon, I hate to tell you this, but NC and Georgia are in the top ten for state population (both well over ten million), the fastest growing states economically, near the top in regards to population growth, and a large number of your Hollywood movies and TV shows etc are now partially or entirely filmed in NC or Georgia. I can talk all day about whether any of this is GOOD or not, but those two states at least are NOT unknown or unimportant anymore, it's not 1920 anymore. NC in fact recently got a state visit from the Japanese Prime Minister who toured the entire state and its industry, which massively increased awareness of the state in Japan. And if Gamefreak is going to make make a region based on NC and Georgia, there's no way they won't include Virginia and SC at least for region shape/size, if not more. Also calling Louisiana (via New Orleans) unknown is silly, New Orleans is one of those internationally famous cities despite how bad it is in reality, so it is also a possibility as somewhere Gamefreak might want to explore (and this, again, invites the possibility of the surrounding states for region size/shape/variety.)
tl;dr you're salty that it's possible California won't be the next US region, get over it, we're just spitballing.
>Im Japanese gay born in the US yes, but I live in Japan for the last 11 years and Japanese people are friendly towards me
When larping goes too far.
Take it back
>Ainus are Japanese
I dare them to take it back
Daily reminder that the north most part of Brasil is closer to Canada than it is to the southmost part of Brasil. And the east most part of Brasil is closer to Africa than it is the the Westmost part of Brasil.
Your country is probably a ~~*soviet*~~ or English creation zogbot
>he thinks the people are the state
Let me guess you think children should go to drag shows, but Bible quoters need to go to jail, just because we believe TV just like Russians believe their own broadcast.
The difference between REAL men and neo-judeo-bolsheviks is that men have lives worth living, and futures worth living for. A Black person who breaks into someone else's home chose what he would do with his life, and thus forfeits it.
Now, a redditard immigrant might weep for Black folk and call for "muh compassion" because they were forced into it by purely socio-economic reasons, but all that matters is said Black person is breaking in, burning, looting, and murdering. Ending the Black person's life, and therefore his spree of burning, looting, and murdering, is therefore a heroic act.
The only difference between us American civilians and Russian civilians is socialization and you're needlessly attacking a civilian with the same mindset that made Russian commies deadset on raping everything between 8 and 88 years old; ironically in Russia you were sent to a gulag for killing an intruder. The same mindset is why we call Turks roaches.
Wait until the Third Temple is built and the Antichrist makes Russia destroy Jerusalem.
russian mods didn't like my post apparently
>Cool theory thread about the pokemon world turns into a Chug/Zigger thread

I don't like the derailment either but realgay cope thread #4353453 is hardly a "cool theory thread".
What happened here.
