Kanto = 關東關 is a compound of 𢇇, which represents threads or ropes binding the beam of a portal, 門 being a gate, it means "barrier, frontier pass, close, relation".東 is traditionally thought to represent a sun rising behind Fusō, a mulberry tree in the far east where the sun originates according to Chinese mythology. It means East.Together, in the context of Japanese history and the real-life region of Kantō, they represent the region east of the Sakone pass, the main tollgate between two historic economic centres of Japan, Edo and Kyoto. We can also interpret the name in the context of the Pokémon world as east of the Victory Road gate at Mt. Silver.Johto = 城都城 is a compound of 成, representing an axe with the handle to the right and the blade to the left, with the little half-square representing the border of a city, and 土, a lump of dirt representing earth, together they represent a castle or urbanity in general.都 is a compound of 者, a sugarcane with its stems and a mouth, meaning to boil (original version of 煮, later borrowed to become a nominalising suffix), and 邑, a person kneeling outside of a city, together meaning a metropolis.Together they represent Ecruteak, the traditional capital of Johto, and its iconic Tin Tower and Brass Tower.Hoenn = 豐緣豐 is a pot of plants 𠁳 on top of another pot 豆, representing fertility and abundance.¨緣 is a compound of 彖, a pig with a prominent snout meaning "hog", and 糸, silk threads, together meaning the hem of a cloth, its edge. It semantically shifted to mean edges in general and eventually destiny, serendipity.Together, it has been stated by Masuda to represent the serendipitous prosperity of humans and Pokémon, but we could also see it as representing the ideologies of Team Magma and Aqua, a destined land of abundant land or water.
Sinnoh = 神奧神 is a compound of 申, a bolt of lightning, and 示, a memorial tablet used for rituals, together represting gods, divinity, it's used in Shintō, the main religion of Japan (path of gods).奧 is two hands storing rice inside a house, later shifting to representing something secluded, mysterious, obscure.Together, they represent how Sinnoh is the seat of gods and veiled by myth.Unova (Isshu) = 一種一 is a singular stroke meaning "one".種 is a combination of 重, a man carrying a heavy load, and 禾, a grain stalk. Together, they mean seed, possibly because the seed, a coat created by the mother plant, "carries" the child embryo baby plant. Just like in English, seed also means kin, race.一種 represents how all the creatures of the Pokémon world, despite their physical and ideological differences, are all of the same race and ultimately have something in common. Perhaps a reference to the creation theory from the Canalave library, where it was confirmed that humans and Pokémon once could breed together.Ransai (Pokémon Conquest) = 亂世亂 represents two hands tying or organising tangled threads later meaning "chaos".世, the top of the original 枼, is a leaf, which later came to mean generation or epoch, like the successive foliages of a tree.In a Japanese context, 亂世 is a literary term for a period of unceasing conflict, and is used to describe the Sengoku period, which lasted for around two hundred years in the 15th and 16th centuries until the three Great Unifiers ushered in the Edo period.
Hisui = 洗翠洗 is a combination of 先, a person with the foot emphasised to mean leading, first, and 氵, water. It means wash, either as water being used to wash a foot, or perhaps as washing was emphasised in the Book of Rites as the essential first step to any ritual.翠, originally meaning kingfisher, is a compound of 卒, a piece of cloth that has been sown to completion, and 羽, two feathers. The reason 卒 is there is because kingfishers are know for dipping into water to fish, 淬 is dipping/dying and it probably has 卒 as you dye a finished cloth. 翠 now reflects the intense colour of the kingfisher, either green or blue.洗翠 was chosen to evoke the pure verdure of the ancient primitive region of Hisui.If you're wondering about the other regions, they really just have random sounds stitched together with no meaning, no Kanji behind them.
