Comparing your hometown to the Pokemon world

    Let's use our imagination and think for a second where in the Pokemon world our hometown or city most resembles. Are you surrounded by a lot of water? Maybe you would be somewhere in the Hoenn region! As for me, I live in a quiet area for the most part, not many people, and there is quite a bit of forests. My town kind of resembles something like Verdanturf actually! What about you guys?

  • I think mine would look a lot like Pallet town with it being around a lot of forests and stuff plus it is pretty small just like Pallet town so i'll go with that :)

  • Yeah, I'd say Hoenn myself as well. It's quite a quiet place I live in where there is a lot of water and also just nature.

  • Given I'm someone who lives in a fairly urbanized area, I feel like it's easily comparable to Unova. The fact I live in an apartment block reminds me of Hearthome City in Sinnoh as well, given it has a few around there.

  • While it might be cheating a bit, LaRousse City from the anime is already the Pokemon world version of Vancouver, where I live just a short drive from.

    If we're going for the game equivalent though, I guess Canalave would be a good comparison, even if it's not quite as big.

  • I'd say here it would be a mix between Hoenn's Slateport City and Unova's Castelia. Sydney is the biggest city in Australia (no duh), and there are a countless number of ships that I see in the harbour. We even have our own yacht.

  • I'd have to go with the original version of Mauville City. My city is near a river and a powerplant and people come and go from it in all four directions. It also has a few casinos plus bicycling is becoming a big thing here in recent months, so it's practically a perfect fit.

  • My town has the country's largest man made lake, and where I live is surrounded in several water channels leading into the lake... so there's a lot of water and trees everywhere. It feels a little like Ever Grande or Mossdeep City, I guess?

  • Maybe it's the Johto fanboy in me talking, but I'd have to say Johto. A lot of Johto Pokemon resemble animals that live around here (such as bears, snakes, and deer). I live in a suburban area with lots of hills and a forest behind my house. We've even got a well (not that there's any Slowpoke in there), so I guess it's most like Azalea Town?

    It takes about half an hour to get to the city from here, so I guess Azalea fits even more because we could compare the city to Goldenrod.

    Well considering I live in New York City, the answer is obvious. Castelia City, Unova.

    Well, seeing as I was raised in the 18éme arrondissement of Paris, I would have to say Lumiose City (for the obvious reasons), though I'm currently living in San Francisco, so Castelia City, maybe?

  • Anville Town almost perfectly matches the town I currently live in; it has a train track and station, along with plenty of trains, has a very small population, is rural, and is located in the middle of nowhere.

    Where I currently live...definitely in the Hoenn region. Specifically...I'd like to say Lilycove City because of the proximity to the ocean and the general feel it has.
