>>58866391>>58866526This is the kind of shit you'd only say if you've never bothered to look at what America is like, I'm guessing you live in some coastal state and believe nothing interesting in the middle of the country besides diabetes and college football so I took it upon myself to make some concepts.
I chose South Dakota since you probably think there's nothing there but grass and people waiting to die. Some animals you could represent would be the Prarie Dog, the Pronghorn Antelope, Townsend’s big-eared bat, the Eastern spotted skunk, Snowy Owls, and the 13-lined ground squirrel, to name a few.
Routewise we can have some big praries, the glacial lakes, a bison meadow (maybe where Bouffant charge at you and you need to be stealthy), and some lakefront routes based on SD's over 120 glacial lakes.
Townwise they'll be smaller sure, a prarie farm town like Turffield, a rail junction town, a town on the lakefront, maybe an oil rig town that's past its prime, and a colder city up in the Black Hills, maybe even the league is built into these hills like Mouth Rushmore.
I agree that you could build a region off a much smaller piece of a European country and have lots of material (even Northern France seems like too big of a net for Kalos) but acting like America only offers "America" as a theme and that's it reeks of someone who hasn't bothered to learn about the country. Get outside and see the world anon, there's a lot to enjoy outside of your city.
