I think it will mainly be based on France... or at least the first few areas, and the rest can be in motherland Germany. :3I don't think it'll be just based on France but rather the whole of Europe :3 At least I hope so! Europe has a lot of amazing and interesting countries and scenery and culture!
The starters are based off chestnuts, forgs and fennet, which are stereotypically French, so that's a good educated guess :P
While it does seem to be France, I think it will be more Europe all up.
Personally, I'm more waiting for the Australia based Pokemon region.
It's confirmed to be back at 1 because of a sign visible in the trailer showing a 3.I think they may include some of the suburbs of Paris as well.
Now what do you guys think will happen to the Route numbering? Will we go back down to Route 1? Or will the region pick up where Unova left off?
Also I wonder if it'll have a link to Unova as real life france helped America gain it's independence...

In the trailer there was a sign post with a "3" on it only assuming this is Route 3 which may indicate that this region is isolated from the others.
Paris does have the Seine river though, and they could exaggerate the size of it a bit to give us some more water areas.If the region is made up of paris and the area around it the region will than be land locked as Paris isn't close to the coast for quite a distance, and if it were to connect to normandy it'll be the biggest region ever seeing how that extension would make it bigger than the sinnoh region which is based on Hokkaido (of course pokemon regions aren't exactly to scale...).
