So are Colosseum and XD supposed to be set in some distant region? If so, is it supposed to be "more distant" than the regions in the other games?

Why is the girl playing games and not helping her mom wash the dishes?

They take place in Orre, an unofficial region.

Oh god I just remembered this.
GF literally used Joe's work in their game. I can't get over it.

Definitely "more distant." There's not another wasteland like it, the technology is more advanced with fucking hoverbikes being a thing, and the trainers having weird names makes it feel a bit more exotic.

Neither official or unofficial. It's in a weird state where Gamefreak absolutely refuses to acknowledge it so it's up in the air. I like to believe those games happened and sweeping them under the rug is a mistake.

you have to admit, it's pretty shitty, lore-wise, to have this region with no new pokemon in it

It's a unique foreign region in that it's desolation leaves it's population to rely more on foreign trade than a pokemon based economy. It's why wild pokemon are such a rarity, it's why older architecture is either abandoned or reused by the lower class, and it's why you so much focus around ships and vehicle innovation.

This. The people of Orre know pokemon sports are internationally lucrative, so it's likely that the population invested so much money in Realgam Tower to attract tourists.

In the quest for something "deep" I like to convince myself that something apocalyptic happened there some time ago and that's why the open desert is inhospitable even to Pokemon. Not nukes but maybe getting a direct hit from the Ultimate Weapon.
