Reminder it's only geographically based on New York except for the bridges, relic castle, and nimbasa city everything else about it (the mons, story, and characters) is European mostly FranceChinese and Japanese.
>it's the USA region
lol americucks
I guess gamefreak didn't expect to do another region not based on Japan after gen 5 so they tried to do as much as possible.
Also all the legendaries correspond to this
French: snivy, swords of justice, genesect
Chinese: tepig, tao trio
Japanese: oshawott, the genies, victini

Man, anyone else get disappointed that nothing except for Opelucid for a little bit got frozen over? I was hoping for some awesome ice routes and changes. Not just a screen covering.

Platinum already double burned me with barely any of the region becoming more winter-y and Distortion World being a short, underwhelming dungeon instead of a Light/Dark World deal. So I didn't expect anything from the ice on the map, or the MCs wearing wetsuits under their clothing.

Get a load of this idiot. Someone's never been to NYC, that's literally the idea pal. NYC has Chinatown, a Korea Town (flushing), Little Italy, most of the big Japanese companies have offices and or stores in Manhattan. Litteraly every other neighborhood in the city is based off of a group of immigrants who came from somewhere else.

The amalgamation of cultures in a free society IS our culture. It's the whole point. And don't say that ANY European culture is their own, because every single European country has been conquered multiple times by other armies or forces and had their culture assimilated or modified.

Exactly
Every culture is the combination of many other cultures
Except the US was created too late to have any effect on anything, it just took from everywhere and contributed nothing.
Being the amalgamation of different cultures is nothing new and unique which describes the United States perfectly.

Dude are you retarded? US culture permeates every other first world country in the world, from the UK, to Germany, to South Korea. Jeans are worn by everyone. Everyone eats hamburgers. KFC is eaten on Christmas in Japan and Hollywood - which is almost wholly American - is the only standard for cinematography for much of the world. If you want something more stereotypically cultural everyone in the world has heard of Paul Bunyan and Johnny Appleseed.

Shut up with your blind America-hating. I hate America probably more than you do but I can at least recognize its global reach.

Yep, meaningless vapidity in everything is as American as shooting up a school. Nothing of this amalgamation of cultures has any meaning, any purpose. You just pick what you like from some cultures and strip away the stuff you don't, no matter how much meaningful history and purpose it actually carries. You took asian tea, but the tea ceremonies seemed a little fruity, so you took the suchong and just drink it like you would a soda. You love tribal tattoos, but have no idea what they mean. And my fucking god, do your American-Irishmen love carrying on about how OIRISH THEY ARE FAITH AN BEGORRAH, at least on St Patrick's day.

Sure, not like we developed half of the globally celebrated holidays passed their infancy, or proliferated a massive cultural change to our way of thinking or anything. And Jesus, you say us streamlining and mainstreaming stuff is bad like the other cultures we borrow it from can't do it any more. America is a massive conglomeration of different cultures that spawned its own global culture. You're just blinded by your American-centric viewpoint that you can't see how far the American culture has probed into everything.

Missed their point entirely. America has a culture. But it's as deep as a kiddy pool. THAT'S why it can be spread so easily, there's nothing you need an actual understanding of the culture to figure out. Paul Bunyan and other tall tales are exactly that. Tales. Tales are meant to be told and so they're easy to tell. Once you know he's a big guy with a blue ox you understand Paul fucking Bunyan.

You have culture, but that's not special. 4chan has a culture and it's been around for less than twenty years. Anything can develop a culture, three isolated people will develop their own culture. But that culture will never carry the weight of tradition.

Now, if you want to at it another way, specific regions of America have far stronger cultural identities than your country as a whole ever will. Hell, split your country into north and south and you find cultural divides and idiosyncrasies that carry all the depth of tradition.

Sure, I suppose. I guess you missed that Paul Bunyan was a creation myth for the great lakes and all, but I can't fault you for not knowing the details of it.

Second paragraph:
agreed

Third paragraph:
This is 100% true and would shut anyone up if they were to think about it. Bayou culture, redneck culture, all the cultures of ny and pennsylvania, the fishing towns in the northeast, the northwestern towns basically cut off except to cali, etc. It would be like people trying to pinpoint "European culture..." What does that even mean?

So yeah, agreed.

Exactly. Shit, Italy and Serbia are closer to each other than the top of California and the bottom. If they can be so drastically different in culture from each other, than Florida and Oregon are worlds apart. They're as culturally relevant as Britain is to Greece, with the only shared thing between them being part of the same state union, which was, until Brexit, the only thing Britain and Greece had in common. The USA as an entire nation is as indicative of the cultures of the people living there as the EU is of its member states,

It's about perspective. What Americans see as normal lives, actions, ideas and beliefs, other people see it as foreign and exotic.

When my mom's side of the family moved from Spain to Florida, they thought that the place was magical. It's the entertainment/media capital of the world to them, and super cutting-edge and modern. She thought Bigfoot was awesome, but not as cool as myths about fairies. Granted, old Great-Aunt Maria or whatever never used a computer until 2015, but the land was very different from her home, and offered a lot of new things for her and her 10100139399 kids.
