>>48496556The Pokemon World is a planet similar to Earth, sharing many real locations with it, it just has an ambiguous amount of additional landmasses not in the real world, some of which appear in the games
The amount of additional land grows with each new generation making this version of canon more and more untenable but this is what I believe, until official word is sent out that all references to real world locations are no longer part of canon in any way instead of merely no longer mentioned
