My current guess would be Singapore, Hawaii, or Guyana in no particular order.

It was also shown in the trailer as one of the Pokemon being traded. A curious choice.Ocean Pattern vivillion is orange and blue, resembles the sun and the ocean, and is available from a certain part of America. You know where? HAWAII.
Ku and Hina, male or husband (kane) and female or wife (wahine), are invoked as great ancestral gods of heaven and earth who have general control over the fruitfulness of earth and the generations of mankind. Ku means "rising upright," Hina means "leaning down." The sun at its rising is referred to Ku, at its setting to Hina; hence the morning belongs to Ku, the afternoon to Hina. Prayer is addressed to Ku toward the east, to Hina toward the west. Together the two include the whole earth and the heavens from east to west; in a symbol also they include the generations of mankind, both those who are to come and those already born. Some kahunas teach a prayer for sickness addressing Ku and Hina, others address Kahikina-o-ka-la (The rising of the sun) and Komohana-o-ka-la (Entering in of the sun). Still others call upon the spirits of descendants and ancestors, praying toward the east to Hina-kua (-back) as mother of those who are to come, and toward the west to Hina-alo (-front) for those already born. The prayer to Ku and Hina of those who pluck herbs for medicine emphasizes family relationship as the claim to protection.
Because of the nature of Hawaiian mythology and the oral tradition in general, it is difficult to pinpoint any one Hina myth, as there are many versions. The most common claims she worked creating bark cloth, got tired of not being appreciated, packed up her gourd, got on a rainbow, and headed for the sun against the wishes of her husband. Finding the sun too hot, she came back down. The next night there was a full moon, so Hina decided to climb to the moon in hopes of finding it a more hospitable place to live. Her husband was furious, so they fought. Hina claimed her desire was to go live with the moon, her new husband, and managed to escape.
Faraway Island. It isn't very close to Hawaii, but it was even farther from Hoenn.Speaking of Mew, perhaps Birth Island could be in game as a pist league sidequest. I
Faraeay Island, right,always though birth fit it bettwr for some reason. While it would still be faraway, I could see them placing it somehwerw near the Galapagos, which would make more sense.Faraway Island. It isn't very close to Hawaii, but it was even farther from Hoenn.
Maybe Hoopa teleported the entire island near Hawaii xDFaraeay Island, right,always though birth fit it bettwr for some reason. While it would still be faraway, I could see them placing it somehwerw near the Galapagos, which would make more sense.
It should be one of the Guyana islands, considering that Dr. Fuji found Mew in a Guyana jungle and also left a message on Faraway Island. I suppose he might have taken Mew to a different island, but that would be a little weird.Faraeay Island, right,always though birth fit it bettwr for some reason.

The most popular concept of a lei in Hawaiian culture is a wreath of flowers presented upon arriving or leaving as a symbol of affection.
I think that if we're going to Poké-Hawaii, there won't be a lot of sea routes. Sea routes aren't all that creative and there's not too much you can do with them. Not to mention the fact that they've been poorly received in general and as a result Game Freak has consistently lowered the number of them per region since Gen 3.Hawaii can be tremendously different from Hoenn. For one, there won't be one huge island with 3 major small ones and a small portion of ocean. The way I see it:
-The sea is open world. Routes are still in and there will be barriers but as you progress and gain access to more islands, the ocean is more explorable. Much like Soaring is the sky equivalent of open world, Surfing shall be the same.
I'd rather a sea route that I can freely explore to a ferry I have to watch a cutscene of every time I want to travel between islands.They could always use ferries, as was the case for the Sevii Islands.
The ferries could easily be optional.I'd rather a sea route that I can freely explore to a ferry I have to watch a cutscene of every time I want to travel between islands.
Moon Version exclusive. Sun Version players get to explore the sun - the BGM is "Walkin' On The Sun" by Smash Mouth playing on a loop.I legitimately hope at least a part of it is actually on the moon.
