>>54582528Oh, you have to go for a more simplistic approach.
Unova, Kalos, and Alola are America and France seen through japanese lenses.
There's a giant desert with architecture and pokemon resembling Egyptian culture, in the middle of Manhattan.
The inclusion of diverse characters makes sense, as that's how Japan perceives that is the western population.
Furthermore, these characters are japanified and made attractive towards japanese audiences in mind, rather than for your average blue haired tumblrite. This is why Mallow, Olivia, Lenora and Iris work right, meanwhile Nessa, Geeta, Ryme, and the worst offender, Jenna Ortulip feel inorganic and unsettling
