So I've always been a fan of Mew, and thought it was interesting it was found in Guyana.

Since Mew is in Faraway Island in the games I looked up "guyanese islands"

Funnily enough, there's literally an island in Guyana called Corocoro. Mostly in Venezuela but partly in Guyana.

It also borders the ocean, which makes sense for the games' ships to be able to travel there.

Well there's not going to be Guyana anymore. What they did to the Lightning American they'll probably do to Mew's origins.

Honest question

I believe most of south American islands are river islands in Brazil. There's many in Guyana too.

modern game freak is the fucking worst

mew probably won't even have given birth to mewtwo anymore either because it doesn't line up with the "all pokemon come from eggs" retardation gen 2 shat out

Mew was never giving birth, that was a figure of speech. In the same games that claimed Mewtwo was born, Pokedex was stating that it was created by a horrible DNA splicing experiment.

The first issue of Corocoro was in 1977 meaning it got the name first, but Wikipedia says this:

The name comes from a phenomime korokoro (ころころ) which means "rolling" and also represents something spherical, fat, or small because children supposedly like such things.

That suggests coincidence, but I cannot believe this

This could be their opportunity to change it to something like Lightning Unovan or Alolan now that Gen V and VI have been things.

Corocoro magazine came out first, interesting coincidence though.

They changed it to "Lightning Lieutenant", or "Lightning Tough Guy" in Japanese.

Also, Unova is a region of America, not a country.

I know that, my point is that the change occurred in HGSS, i.e. before a maingame region based on anywhere in the US.

I'm talking about LGPE, though. We've confirmed they did not in fact undo their shitty direction.

They're talking about Pokemon, dingus. As in Corocoro was named before there could've ever been a Pokemon-related reason to name it as such.

wow.. fascinating coincidence

this should be the head-canon for where mew is from, but doesn't frlg see they traveled deep in the jungles of guyana? not that this couldn't be the island, but as you said it borders the ocean, so it's hard to be "deep" in the jungle.

but really gf never thought of this anyway, so it's anyone's idea.
