>>40312581>The geography of the Sinnoh region is based on the geography of the Japanese island of Hokkaido and southern part of the Russian island Sakhalin, as well as Kunashir, which is claimed by Japan, but administered by RussiaOk well, I was wrong, but it's a little bit of both apparently, I guess that's why Sinnoh is so cold.
Still though, some Sinnoh stuff can be seen as Russian inspired, like Cynthia's design for an example.
