Yeah but we didn't at the time.

It doesn't mean that for to be certain, but all real world locations have the same focus on agriculture and from a symbolical point of view, agriculture based gym can't be one of the last because agriculture - country bumpkins, home town, farms. With fantasy, you can create ultra tech countries without farms, for example, or a land of exclusively dark mages who create food out of this air or something. In any case, a gym order will be much more unexpected there almost for certain because you don't have to repeat 'national fruit/food/tree/sport/pastime' route every time. It is so obvious that I am surprised I have even to explain that.How does basing it on real world places mean that grass and bug have to come early? Kalos had grass midway through, Alola had the secondary villain be the bug master.
And it's not like the villains (save for generations 1 and 3) have real world reflections in those regions.
Uh, Virbank at least is inspired by California given it contains a Hollywood expy. Plus the Burbank pun in the English translations.Well that's another thing, people act like Unova is the entire USA and it drives me up a wall. Unova is very specifically the area around New York City--a very small fraction of the USA. Heck it's not even the first American region we got, since two gens earlier we got Orre.
The reason why it exists in the anime is that the writers didn’t know that there would be a place that could be based off of Hollywood later so they just made some like that to give it a little reference and have a fun episode.Yeah and Hollywood is in Japan in the anime so?
Get rid of IVs. This is an outdated system that makes competitive Pokémon sets so much more ludicrous to obtain than necessary. They also hardly have a real purpose now, thanks to Hidden Power being removed from major mainline titles and otherwise being repurposed in minor mainline titles like Legends Arceus. Legends Arceus set it as an exclusive move for Unown that always inflicts damage with a type Super Effective against its target.
What does the Badge Quest have to do with “female empowerment”? Riko can easily be a strong character without just turning her into Ash lol.I don't know if this is controversial but if Liko doesn't get a badge quest now when Ash has left the anime I will officially give up on hoping for female empowerment in Pokémon ever again lol.
