Looking back on that YouTube region countdown to the reveal of Pokémon Sword & Shield and the Galar region which asked the question, "Which region of the Pokémon World would you like to visit?", I got curious...
Since each region of the Pokémon World is based on a real life place, how many of you have more or less "visited" Pokémon regions, and if so, which ones have you been to?
I have only been to Hawaii (Alola) & New York City (Unova)...but I REALLY want to see Tokyo aka Kanto (and yes, that district of Japan IS actually named Kanto IRL!) at some point. I'm hoping, fingers crossed, that 2020 will be the year that I'm finally able to do that.
I remember when I first played Pokémon Diamond & Pearl as a kid, I mentioned to my friends and made a comment on YouTube that Sinnoh reminded me of Oregon (long before I found out it was actually based on Hokkaido).
