Unova as it is doesn't deserve to be a full region. It should have been based on all of New England to fit with the others.

Unova included land surrounding Manhattan, too. Karos is the odd one out.

You do realize NY isn't even a part of New England?

Close enough. NYC could have been the southernmost city in the region or something.

I don't think you realize how small the Japanese prefectures are.

Those regions of Japan are likely not much bigger, if they are at all, than NY City and the surrounding area. Japan is a tiny country, we have individual states that are larger.

Same goes for France, it's smaller than Texas, and the region in X/Y seems like it'll just focus on the area around Paris. Seems comparable to me. If they based a game's region on an actual 'region' of the US, it'd be HUGE.

New York is very much not part of New England. And in any case, Unova also includes parts of North Jersey, so it is more regional than a single city anyway.

I don't know, the shape of that map looks like basically all of France.

To be fair, while GF bases the layout of a region in a certain location. they could do something more than "it's green everywhere, fucking Mareeps and rain everywhere"

I mean it's not like NY has a mexican city or a desert nearby

I always wanted pokemon games that took place on "opposing" regions

Like one game take place in some Tropical island, and the other in some Winter land with few non snowy areas, very few pokeymamz will be common, and the rest unique to each region...

but whatever
