CoroCoro calls Alola the "Southern Islands".

YFW when you realize they are the south to the "Northern Landmass" Kalos.

Well one thing is for sure: calling them "Southern Islands Alola Guide" makes you think why are they southern? Are there northern ones? Or maybe Alola is somehow connected to Kalos and together they are a whole?

You're right just like how Hawaii is geographically located below France.

Nope.
All we have is the first island being called Melemele.

Becuase Pokemon World isnt like real world? Sootopolis is based on a Greek island and guess what: it lies in the middle of Hoenn, region based on Japan.

You mean retarded.

The ones who'd actually point out basic geography would be called autistic.

Kind of fucking sucks that they just looked at the "beautiful" aspects of the country, and ignoring shit like Corsica or the catacombs (which would have been a great source for ghost type pokemon)

I find that hard to believe, actually.
>Kanto and Johto next to each other
>Sevii Islands clearly the islands south of Real-World Kanto
>Hoenn a warmer climate than either, suggesting a slightly more southerly island
>Sinnoh colder than any of them, suggesting a more northerly region
>Unova and Kalos specifically stated to be much farther away from the previous four

I looked back at the E3 presentation and there's no name when they enter the town displayed on screen. So weird that we're moving to the next island without even a name for the starting town.

Real world geography is somewhat accurate in the series. Sure. But with that in account, Hawaii is only somewhat south of Japan. Maybe I should go full genwunner and change Kalos to Kanto and ignore the Sevii Islands?

This phrase can mean two things in English. It could be like what OP says or it could be a guide on the two southern islands out of the four. The latter is what I always assumed it meant.
