Indonesia and her neighbouring countries (Malaysia, Singapore and Philippines) are the perfect countries for a new Asian region to be based on.>Pokemon region need water and islands>Going back to Japan is a bad move considering the global scale of Pokemon now >Korean region won't sell in Japan>Picking China means having to put Hong Kong and Taiwan as part of the region wich could be problematic>Picking India means having to include Bangladesh Sri Lanka Pakistan as part of the region which could be problematic>Central Asia has no water>Middle East>Meanwhile Southeast Asian countries are pretty chill to each other except for Thailand vs Cambodia and Myanmar vs it's own people but they are not part of the archipelago anyways>Southeast Asia has plenty of both Asiatic and Australian animals which could be inspirations for future mons>Has hundred thousand of islands which is perfect for infinite island mechanism >Has many cool looking bird species (Wind) and has the most fish species in the world (Waves)and many more
>>58403807So why the fuck the codename is "Gaia" if it's not going to be greece?
>>58403827We love muslims and so should you!!!
>>58403827Pokemon is a psyop, they want to pozzify Asian muslims. That shit is never gonna work, they don't know how toxic we are. We are going
>>58403827Because Greece is cringe while Indonesia is coolSimple as
>>58403827From Tera Leak
>>58403827I think they're using Gaia in the new age sense of being connected to the earth, because of the themes of nature and environmentalism, not the Greek goddess. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaianism
>>58403807I have inside information. As far as I am aware, these are the places they plan on doing a region, that they have a rough study about those places and how it can be translated into a Pokémon game:>Greece. It will be gen 10.>Indonesia>Brazil. It will be gen 11 or 12.>Italy. It will be gen 11 or 12.>a return to Japan (probably around gen 15 or some special date)>China. No, it doesn't mean they will have to address Hong Kong or Taiwan. Wtf you talking about?>Australia/a little bit of New Zealand.>Germany.>Some Nordic Country (maybe a mic between then)
>>58403879Wait is Orion the codename for gen XI???
>>58403929>China. No, it doesn't mean they will have to address Hong Kong or Taiwan. Wtf you talking about?How do you do the water areas then?Also I see NZ is a good region too but I think it makes sense that they want to return to Asia to take a breather
>>58403947No it's sword and shield. Basically confirming they made the map/gameplay shit and focused on the story aspect more (the "vertical" aspect, whereas legends games are "horizontal")
>>58403947Orion was SWSH. it's saying having a vertically oriented region would be similar to Galar. not sure what the comparison to L2 is about, assuming that's Legends 2 aka ZA, but idk how that's similar to the west coast.
>>58403807>Wind and WavesSo would you call it... Wuthering Waves?
>>58403847where
>>58403929China is literally the never EVER region.Say goodbye to ghost-types.
>>58403929India?
>>58403929Gen 11 won't be a thing until 2030Why should I give a shit about that, I will be a 50 years old gramp at that point
>>58404486idk i'll probably still be playing on my deathbed, figuratively
>>58403807Gen 7/Gen 10 too much water
>>58404448lol
QRD on weather moves?
>>58403827Pangea plot point probably ie all the islands were one landmass at one point , and the whole environmentalism/pass on a better earth theme of the project >>58403947Swoshi
>>58403807oh boy they are really trying to sell pokemon tcg here in Indonesia.
Did someone forgot to tell Game Freak that woke is dead?

>>58403807>tung tung tung sahur sudowoodo evo
>>58403807The one thing I keep wondering about is how will they make these islands different enough from each other. Still wish it was greece because that's the closest we'll get to a Mediterranean region.
>>58403807Orangutan starter/legendary pls
>>58406275>that's the closest we'll get to a Mediterranean region.Gen 9 is Spain you dumb fuck
>>58406309Spain is close too but paldea didn't have much sea.
>>58406275>The one thing I keep wondering about is how will they make these islands different enough from each otherthey're going to be procedurally generated lmao>Still wish it was greece because that's the closest we'll get to a Mediterranean region.meh Greece is still on the table, Italy too
