Said bridge could always be the Brooklyn Bridge, or one of the other thousand bridges in New York.
Besides, there wouldn't be a route reset if it were based on Shanghai. China and Japan are pretty close to each other, especially when compared to New York. Also, a good few of the species in the region are New York natives; pigeons, eagles, chipmunks, blue jays... |

Oh right. Kill joy. Yes it's New York, the Eagle seals that deal T_T |

I live in England and technically France is closer than some places in my own country, however I would still class it as 'far away' in comparison. This topic isn't about the LOCATION it's about the ROUTES. ------ Personally I like that the routes start again, but I'd have prefered it if they had individual names rather than just numbers to give them a bit of character and make them more memorable. |
Ahh a nice new fresh start :)
That's what everyone likes .. |
I like the idea of starting fresh again, it makes sense. :)
|
It doesent really matter to me the starting fresh thing, its just a route. But yes i think its intersting.

Hopefully that finally gets my point across. |
Well I expect to see the Chipmunk in route 1 as well as the pigeon :P

Find me a picture (google earth) of a place that resembles isshu as much as shanghai does, which also has a lake the exact same place as in isshu, that has a mottor way that connect the lower middle part of the center land to the right piece of land and ends with a twirl. LIKE IN ISSHU!!! Oh and if you do happen to stumble across such a bridge, please show me its pointy top. Oh and also point out to me where on your manhattan map you have mountains. oh and i really find it incredible (other picture of shanghai i found on PC) That shanghai has an orange bridge where the Isshu orange bridge is. Hmmmm.. |

Well no one has actually confirmed Kanto,Johto, Hoenn or Sinnoh being based in Japan it's only a Theory, a very convincing theory...more than the Theory of Evolution at that :P |

Blue Jays are not native to New York, nor are chipmunks or Pigeons. The Eagle has not been revealed as an American based Pokemon. Much speculation has gone on about it's origin. More people are saying that It's based off of a native Chinese eagle. You're thinking these creatures are 'native' to New York because they're there right now; they're not. Don't make assumptions without proper information to back you up. I also quoted this to show we need to get a little bit more back on topic; we're talking about the Pokemon and origins now, we need to talk about route 1. Personally, i'm happy to have reset the routes. It shows that it is indeed a far away country, and that we have a fresh new region to deal with. |

And yes, I do agree that Shanghai has a lot going for it's point. But the whole point I was getting across was that One: Nobody knows for sure what Isshu is. Nobody but the creators. We haven't played the game, we've only seen a map. How do you know that an NPC in Hiun City won't be like "Oh, I've finally made it. Hiun, the big Apple! It's so magnificent!" there could be dialog like that inside. and Two: All of these posts are irrelevant, because the point of this thread is to converse over the reset route numbers. This post and those before it are irrelevant to the subject at hand. This debate belongs in the Isshu Region thread, sorry to mini-mod. I wasn't using my post to debate your theory. And your theory personally I enjoy. You never said that "ISSHU IS SHANGHAI I KNOW IT IS PROVEN". You said "no other place resembles it more". I find that true. But when people say things are proven or they're absolutely right, I don't accept that. Again, whether Isshu = Shanghai or Isshu = New York, it doesn't matter one bit to me. But nothing is proven and it makes me mad when people say it is. Now, let's stop talking about this. Because, this thread if for routes. |
I hope we get snowy routes like route 201 in Sinnoh :)

Anyways, I wanted to say that the starting town, which leads to Route 1, vaguely reminds me of Twin leaf / Pallet Town. If you look at it enough, it kind of brings back the memory of those two towns ... do you think that was meant to happen? Quote:

Never got nostalgic flashbacks, personally, just immense joy at the reset, though if it does happen to people, I doubt it was meant to do so. It is to show that this is far, far away from the other places, and had their route system placed at about the same time as Kanto or something like that. (In-game continuity)
However, with the snowy mountains, I'm hoping we have something kind of like Mt. Coronet, only you don't go through it as many times as you did in Sinnoh. Like a snowy, mountainous part, that would be as awesome as the desert, in my opinion anyway. |
i believe that route 1 will be like any other first route except hoenn it will have a bird and a rodent lv. 2-4 and thats it skrry to burst everyones bubbles of high hopes but its very predictible. one thing i know and that nobody can say im wrong about this. route 1 with the bird and rodent will be the start of a grand adventure in isshu.
