Something I've noticed in the games.

[Alternative]

There's something I've noticed in the games, especially Johto and Kanto, and that's that a lot of the town's names have something to do with nature, whether it be a flower or tree or something.

Cherrygrove town.
Azalea town
Mahogany town
Saffron city
Vermillion city
Ceruleancity

I thought it was just me, but it does seem coincidental.

The towns in the first generation and some in the second are actually named after colors. Pallet Town comes from the word "Palette", which is this.

C wut they did thar?

Like a previosu poster mentioned, the first Generatopn and Second Generation Town/Cities Revolve aorund Colours. But the professors however, do represent trees or plants. Eg. Pro. Oak - Oak Tree Pro. Elm - Elm Tree - Pro. Ivy Visious Plant ect.

All of the Kanto cities were named after more obscure colours (Viridian, Saffron, Lavender, Cerulean)

All of the Hoenn cities were named with compound words about the city (Old-dale, Little-root, Slate-port, Ever-grande)

The Johto cities were a mix of the above (Violet, Mahogany, Cherry-grove, Black-thorn)

The cities of Sinnoh are similar to Hoenn's (Sand-gem, Snow-point, Sunny-shore, Twin-leaf) but there are a few odd ones, like Canalave and Pastoria.

And the Sevii Islands are named in number (One, Two, Three, Four)
