[@slylanders1291]

I have high hopes for Generation 10's new region to be based around Africa (includes Egypt if anyone forgets and Madagascar), I mean who doesn't want to see Africa become part of the Pokemon world? It is another choice fans like me want to see for quite a while and I love the diversity of the wildlife from elephants to zebras, lions to giraffes, and ostriches to monkeys and lemurs; I mean there's just so much going on with the wildlife that it's got to be a must be made region for an upcoming Gen 10 main game! I personally love a lot about Africa and feel like this is a good pick, but ultimately wouldn't mind seeing any of the ones you said to be the next chosen region, including India, the rest of North America, China, Italy, South America and Russia to name a "few". I love all of the potential starters and would like to see another video of more region choices happen in the future.

what region is this awesome pokemon form i ask this because can you try doing this pokemon fan made region a mean story mode videos on youtube about your pokemon fan made region pokemon games show the the gym leaders and the regions villain teams taking on pokemon league and taking on the elite four and do a video on ash journey here in this region and his them also would he catches more then six like he did in unova and who is this region's elite four and finally can do a video what it be like if you was in the pokemon anime and also awesome job on make this region man you sound send this idea to the team that made the anime and games it would make a awesome anime season and game send back message are reply and tell me what you think p.s i mean this awesome job on your youtube channel love your work

Hot take: American west starters could be fire horse and grass bison as you said but then a water moose. All hooved creatures that you then ride when they get big enough. And moose hang out in rivers like they're no big deal because they're so tall and strong.

I call dibs on the fire 🐎.

The ugly face for the water 🫎, and the aggressive hormones for the wood 🦬. Plus the horse is my brother's asian zodiac sign, so why not.

[@durk5331]

Plus Moose are actually known to be preyed upon by Orca because they actually enjoy eating Aquatic Plants >.>

[@sammy_slammy]

And if they do the thing about you getting a Ride Pokemon again, they could make it be a thing you get later in the game when your Pokemon is in its second stage and would be strong enough to carry you. And you'd always have the ball on you, whether its in your battle rotation or not, and we've seen Pokemon choose to go in and out of balls as they please so it being "fainted" could just be it being too exhausted to battle, but it can still carry you, so it works from a meta standpoint as well.

[@awesometoadultimate8562]

I think for Gen 10 we could have 100 new Pokémon and then 51 regional variants as a callback to Gen 1.

[@RelicanththePerfectLifeForm]

Gen 1 callback lol for the 100th time I know not really but cmon there are other gens and gen 1 has gotten more than its fair share of acknowledgment I'm not entirely opposed to some gen 1 variants we've gotten some already in alola again in galar and paldea with tauros and of course convergent evolutions being another way of covering that basis I just don't want to see an Overabundance of gen 1 and not much else for other gens

[@DeadmanInc336]

Call me biased because of my ethnicity; but a region based on Latin America or specifically Mexico would be rad with starters based on a Mexican Spiny Tailed Iguana (Water), East Mexican Black Bear (Fire), and the Quetzal (Grass). Not to mention the core legendaries being based on the Golden Eagle, a Jaguar, and Quetzalcoatle. Maybe the region can feature TWO pseudo-legendary Pokemon. A Dark/Poison type based on the Chupacabra. Specifically the quadruped, spiny, dog-like verson and be a physical attacker. The second pseudo-legendary can be based on La Llorona and be a Ghost/Fairy type specializing in special attacks.

[@0OB08O]

Also, it makes total sense for them to make we go from an Iberian region to a Latin America region. That's basically history. I might be biased because I'm also from Latin America (Brazil) but I really want it too. Though I'd love if they sneaked in references to El Chavo del Ocho or El Chapulin Colorado, like a regional Lokix or a witch pokémon that is number #71 on the dex, I also wanted it to be a place from the South Hemisphere. We've got 9 regions and NONE of them are from the South of the globe. I think Brazil might be too big as a single region, but I really wanted them to make a part of Brazil as a region, but please don't make it so Brazil is only represented with the Amazon forest or Rio de Janeiro. Something like the Northeast or the South of Brazil would be so cool.

[@luxlumine8602]

Ahh I can see Neo-China/HK region where the technology is something equivalent to those in what 2070 would look like. Neon lights, CGI, large billboard everywhere, and of course AIs.

[@TBustah]

I’ve been campaigning for a region based on Chugoku and Shikoku since 2010. It’s the last major region of Japan that hasn’t been adapted yet. It’s also got potential. Like Hoenn, there’d roughly an equal amount of land and water, and there are tons of legends surrounding the body of water that separates the two parts (the Seto Inland Sea). It’s a touchy subject, but it’s also where Hiroshima is located. They could do something with that if they wanted to. Pokemon mutated by radiation would be rather tasteless, but maybe there could just be some comments about how the region was once at war with Unova and Galar, but now they’re all friends.

[@somescottishlassie891]

An australia region memes would be really funny, the pokemon community has SO many talented and funny people, if the memes are as silly fun as the galar were we're in for a good time lol.

[@Oogly_Boogly_Man]

Possible names that could be used in any stage of the evolution. Western America names: Water: Beadrop (Beaver+drop) Fire: Combustang (combust+mustang) Grass: Buflora (Buffalo+Flora) Australia: Water: Platyplop (platypus+plop) Fire: Flamboa (Flambé+boa) Grass: Kangaroot (kangaroo+root) Netherlands: Water: bubblobster (bubble+lobster) Fire: Explode (explosion+oxen) Grass: Houndrake (hound+mandrake) This is what I got, and I know it's a crab, but lobster just fits so well since the water starter is bubble shaped

[@HeraclesN-fp1bw]

Love how these Regional Pokemon look, so here are some names: - Australian: Kangaroot (kangaroo = root), Heatder (heat + adder = heater), & Platypond (platypus + pond) - American West: Bisam (bison + balsam), Hotrot (horse + hot + trot & is a reference to “hot to trot”), & Beriver (beaver + river & maybe a pun on “believer”) - Netherlands: Flupus (flora + lupus), Infernox (inferno + ox & if it becomes a Dark type then “nox” means night foreshadows), & Decanaal (decapod + kanaal)

I personally would like a region based on Guyana, mainly because they could tie it all back to gen 1 with the discovery of mew. Also there’s real world connections to Guyana, Britain and France, I can see it being referenced in a Pokémon game when Galar and Kalos exist. Especially Kalos with Legends ZA coming.

[@tovergeit3587]

As a Dutchman, For starters a cow and lion are a must. And as a 3rd starter I want to see something like a pidgeon or a Blackbird. These are one of the most common birds here.

[@eggy2229]

Australia has a lot of unused animals and prehistorical mammals could easily become a fossil type or legendary. Kangaroo/wallaby , tasmanian devil and platypus would be a nice choice as starters.

[@mandomario]

i like that Fire-Ox concept. fully evolves into a minotaur creature

[@dracorexion]

While I would love an Australian region and agree that it's the most desired, I'm a bit iffy on the starter choice. Starter Pokemon have never really paired up with a region's inspiration's most famous wildlife as far as I remember. At least not all three. Really only starting with gen 6 and Froakie did any of the starters seem to have cultural connections to their region's inspiration. Popplio and Rowlet are both based off of animals that live on Hawaii. Other than Scorbunny possibly being a super loose reference to the killer rabbit of Monty Python's "Holy Grail" none of the gen 8 starters have deep ties to the UK. And other than Fuecoco looking like a Spanish dish, none of the gen 9 starters are tied to Spanish wildlife.

[@dracorexion]

Also, just to add, the fire starters have never really followed the Chinse Zodiac. It's a fun fan theory, but it takes a lot of stretching to fit. An echidna is supposed to be a rat? A fox is supposed to be the dog? And now people are claiming that Fuecoco is supposed to be the snake or are completely ignoring it? It doesn't help that the games never tried to follow the zodiac in order. Looking at the current lineup of fire type starters, there doesn't seem to be much of a pattern, especially with Fuecoco breaking up long standing patterns such as every fire type since Torchic being based on mammals and becoming bipedal. If anything, I hope the next fire type starter, or really any starter, takes on the bug typing or has clear arthropod origins just to completely shake up the starter line up.

[@devilrider39000000]

​@@dracorexionHear me out, a water/bug starter based on a water bug 😁

I feel like China could be a good possibility as well, especially with the Treasures of Ruin. I'd love to see the region the treasures originally came from, to learn more about them!

I would say the water Starter would be a monkey cause we had a Fire monkey starter (chimchar) in gen 4 and a grass monkey starter (Grookey) on gen 8.

[@mindwipe8788]

Definitely want to see the Grass Bison final evolution, I can see it having horns made of wood just like Sawsbuck’s antlers and prairie grasses making up what would on a normal bison be it’s hair.

[@izzy4804]

I really think they could go back to a japan based region because it’s where the series started and I think it would be cool to explore a region with a familiar feel but with all new Pokémon + regional forms and convergent evolutions! Ps. Wouldn’t it be cool if post-game connected back to kanto but from the other side so it would kind of feel like a loop between gens.

[@Dafiremeteor]

Praying its a brazilian region, it been hinted at in gen 9 in a few occasions, it can very much be likely, more then the other options atleast

[@jenniferdaniels701]

Fire ox/ cow for a Wisconsin region. It's known for dairy products. The Great Peshtigo Fire was the same day as the Chicago Fire, and destroyed more land. (The Chicago Fire supposedly was started by Mrs. O'Leary's cow.) Because some people trying to escape the flames jumped into the river and died of hypothermia there, it gains the ice typing.

The western USA is too massive and diverse to be just one region, and part of it already is a region (Orre is Arizona with a little bit of nearby Mexican states). Unova isn’t the entire east coast, after all, it’s just New York City and parts of the surrounding area. You’ve got to break it down somehow, both to maintain scale (the Pokemon world isn’t 1:1 with our geography, but it’s pretty close) and to leave room for future regions. California would be a good place to start. That state has a little bit of everything: the ocean, scorching deserts, snowy mountains, and forests with trees big enough to drive a car through. It’s home to people from all over the world, and wildlife just as varied. You’d also have Orre next door for a potential post-game.

I know it's too much to ask for but what I would love to see in a future generation is one where you can pick what town you live in at the start, and that effects what your starter is. Either by being given what's around in the area, or a local gym leader supplying the choice.

[@circledude2362]

Like what Fennekin is to Vulpix 2. if we get a platupus starter pokemon, lets hope it wont look like Fwack from Palworld 3. If we get another region based on japan, it needs to be next to kanto just like Johto. 4. If we get a fire snake starter, we will need a Water snake starter due to Snivy

[@dfile7598]

Great video. I honestly had no idea Platypus can be venomous, which may be an interesting secondary type. For the beaver part, I think it could also appear in a Canadian themed region since they are an iconic animal there. I believe a tribute to Gen 1 wouldn't be a bad idea for Gen 10. Maybe some Kanto Pokémon can get new evolution. As for a Netherland region, perhaps the Box Legendary Pokémon could be based on some of the most iconic gods in Norris Mythology!

[@That_Doctor_Del_Fella]

Since we already have bibarel as a water type beaver, I prefer the idea of leaning into the tree felling and dam building aspect of beavers as a grass starter. Make it into a grass/steel lumberjack with a chainsaw tail!

[@supershmueli]

I really think while we desperately want Australia to be the 10th generation, I can feel Gamefreak would make California/Washington/Nevada be a region since a majority of their fan base is in America. We got NY and Hawaii, why not California? While Mexico would work with Texas being the expansion pack, we got Spain recently covering the Latino base. I’m putting my money down on the Western USA being 10th Gen area. Wrote this right before finishing the video. So glad you agree with the Western area being a great area especially for 10th Gen. I also think Texas/Louisiana/Florida with Gulf of Mexico making a great area, but California/Washington/Nevada being a better area.

I think the Netherlands would make the most sense for a new Pokémon region. 1. The map at Blue Berry academy shows a part of an unknown region that looks suspiciously like either the province Zeeland or the area where Rotterdam is in real life. 2. The Pokémon x Van Gogh collaboration that took place last year. 3. The connection between the Netherlands and Japan had since at least the 17th century as the Netherlands was the only European nation that was allowed to trade with Japan for centuries before Japan opened up for the rest of the world in the late 19th century. Funnily enough I think a new Japanese based region would be the least likely since we had Kitakami in the first Gen 9 DLC.

[@Ballora1965]

I'm hoping Gen 10 will be based in Florida,because there are so many different landscapes in Florida,and we have some very interesting landmarks.

I was hoping you’d give the platypus secondary Poison typing, but we’ve already got a platypus Pokemon: Psyduck. It’s even a Gen I Pokemon. If they ever do an Australian region, I think it’s more likely Psyduck will get a regional variant (hopefully with those venomous spurs) rather than there being a new one.

Now, of all these, I think the Netherlands based starters is the trio that looks the most solid. Because of all these water starters, for some dumb or wild reason, the crab one looks the most convincing and realistic. Excellent video with so many good designs and concepts. Yet, this is another of your videos that makes me sad because, just like your gen 9 starters inspired on Italy, I bet none of these new starters will have full evolution lines... A shame.

Another point in favor for a western US region is that we typically revisit old regions in double the generation they came from. So a Unova revisit and a western US region could fit. That being said, I do see a Japan revisit for Gen 10. Maybe some sort of sequel to Kanto/Johto as it's been like 30 years

I would like to see a region based on The Himalayas regions like Nepal, Bhutan, Tibet etc... It could have habitats like high mountains, very tall trees (based on the Deodar Cedar), alpine meadows, snow etc.... You could have a region with mostly unique Pokémon in it like the way Gen III Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald games had mostly new Pokémon and not a lot from Gen I and II regions in the games. There are a lot of animals that you could base Pokémon on including big cats like Bengal Tiger, Pallas Cat and Snow Leopard. Birds like Fire-tailed Sunbird, Himalayan Monel, Blood Pheasant, Brown Dipper Pokémon could be Water/Flying and use water a shield to protect itself, Himalayan Swiftlet, Himalayan owl, Mountain scops owl, Golden Eagle There are also lots of insect species that could be made into Pokémon like Jewel bugs like Calliphara excellens, Weaver Ants and you could have a butterfly Pokémon based on The rare Bhutan Glory butterfly. There also could be a Legendary Pokémon based on a Yeti and a Lakhe, the Nepalese fire burning demon spirit. Then there is other animals that could have Pokémon based on them like Yak, Kiang, Himalayan Wolf, Himalayan Tahr, Yellow-throated Marten etc...

South America is my vote. Amazon Rainforest inspired area. Tons of other biomes. Also the first mythical Mew is canonically stated to hail from the region. Just a little shifting, and you have an excuse to make a regional mew or legendary mew. Also rainforest is the perfect excuse for a bug dragon legendary or pseudo

[@gordyhowitzer]

Fire Horse is a little close to Ponyta for my liking but maybe the fully evolved form is something like Fire/Steel with a signature move throwing a star shaped badge at opponents? Like a frontier sheriff.

As an Australian, I have been dying for a platypus Pokemon! They're one of my favourite animals 🥹

[@ivonnemedina8450]

Grass starter: Rootaroo Fire Starter: Ashiss Water starter: Waddlepus

[@thiago.leal17]

I feel like Brazil would be a really good pick for the 10th region, because: -It is the most biodiverse country in the world, so they could easily do a large pokedex like in gens 1 and 5(even if it means, not initially having old pokémon, I think it's a good tradeoff); -Brazil has the largest number of japanese people outside of Japan, so the region could easily have a district that references the japanese regions heavily, as it would be a nice callback; -Because Brazil is really big with a large population, there are endless cultural inspirations for new pokémon; -Mew was said to be tied to the Amazon rainforest, so it could be another great callback to gen 1.

[@boubayaga_]

Make the platypus water/poison type and I'm in! EDIT (from 3 seconds later): WOOO! (also only male platypus are poisonous)

[@Daniel_Coffman]

For Fire-Type starters, I would really like to see a move away from the very tired-out Chinese Zodiac inspiration. Especially given that we hear nothing of similar fan-theories about the Grass and Water-Type starters at least even *close* to as much as we get the Chinese Zodiac pounded into our heads. What I'd heard from at least some was that the Grass starters were based on extinct animals and Water starters are based on military weapons or military personnel, and at least the extinct animals bit does still fit relatively well for the Grass-Type starters even these days with the Iberian lynx inspiration for Meowscarada, but it seems like the fans have long moved away from either especially when designing new starters, and I think that moving away from the Chinese Zodiac would greatly benefit new Fire-Type Pokemon fan-designs, as well. Besides, essentially, what I think is, "Why do all of the Starters through the generations HAVE to follow a theme?" It just seems arbitrarily restricting.

[@Luke-q2x]

I would say the buffalo will be a water pokemon, since water buffalo’s exist and also the fact they’re a perfect candidate for the “weapon” category water consistently has

[@SBluvr99]

The grass kangaroo could evolve into a grass/psychic type called Kanguru, that likes to meditate, and in trees sometimes.

[@RoyArkon]

Awesome vid once again dude, great designs and great explanations as always.

[@HoopsandHipHop]

@@RoyArkon thanks so much!! I really appreciate it!! 😄

[@Pika-tm4sf]

There is something I'd like to point: You forgot something when you theorized about a pokemon region in this video, the 9G mythical pokemon pecharunt. That's just a theory but since gen 5/6 the mythicals of a region hint at the next. So at what region could pecharunt hint? The japanese region could easily be the choice because of the tale that inspired pecharunt. For the rest it's more hard but I tried: The netherlands could have been hinted because Pecharunt look like more or less like a tulip, flowers that played a role in the country's story. If that's Australia that is chosen for gen 10, It may be not the country but its main theme that pecharunt, the loyal three and ogerpon could hint. Australia would be the first pokemon region in the south hemisphere, so it's the INVERSE of what we got in the past. Australia is also considered having a wildlife totally different from the rest of the world due to it isolation for exemple we have mammals that lay eggs, the INVERSE of the other regions. But in the DLC the tale of momotaro has been inversed: Instead of the peach boy and his friends being the good guy and the ogre the evil, it's the opposite. So Pecharunt could hint at gen 10 main theme INVERSION. (also Australia has a lot of toxic stuffs like pecharunt and its minions) I also heard someone saying China is one of the main peach productors so Pecharunt could hint at that to.

[@Lucaccino17]

Dude really just made Breloom a starter and hoped nobody noticed

[@TerrickTerran]

I still don't think the Chinese Zodiac is going to immediately return (if it was a thing, Fuecoco wouldn't be) but I do like the Fire Snake. Fire Horse though.....just going to be a variation of Ponyta really.

[@hibikuokudan]

Male crocodiles are called Bulls

[@TerrickTerran]

@@hibikuokudan if they wanted it to be a bull...they could have made it a bull.

[@Pika-tm4sf]

​@@TerrickTerran I think they want us to search a little more and not simply tell "Oh look It's a bull!"

[@devilrider39000000]

​@hibikuokudan A lot of animals are called bulls. It just a generic term used for male animals. It's not exclusive to crocodiles.

[@Pika-tm4sf]

@@devilrider39000000 yes it could have been these others animals too

[@ShinseiWarujima]

So, let's get this outta the way; Great video, great Starters. I love all the designs and concepts, and would love to see all of those in their final evos. That being said, I'll get to why I think some of these don't work. First off, the Australia region; I don't believe they will do two Pokémon species that look alike in a row, and platypi can very easily look like ducks if you're not careful. And if we're going by the assumption that they're actually doing Fire-types by Zodiac, then we won't get a Snake as Fuecoco already ticks that off the list. While male crocodiles *are* called "bulls," it's more of a stretch to apply the Bull/Cow to Fuecoco than it is the Snake as crocodiles and snakes are both reptiles. Secondly, the Western US one; if they do "Western US," it will be far, far less of the actual Western US than you've shown, since the Orre region is based on Phoenix, Arizona. Thirdly, the Japanese region; it's a bit disingenuous to say we haven't had a Japanese region in 20 years. Kitakami is a Japanese region. It just isn't the main focus of a game. Fourthly, the Netherlands region; ...I actually have no complaints on this one. I do feel the Ox Starter should have horns made of fire, but that's not even a complaint.

[@DryBones271]

We've had a lot of tropical, hot regions. I think it would be nice to go cold for a region, Iceland! the environment is beautiful!

[@HoopsandHipHop]

@@DryBones271 I definitely love the idea of a cold region too!! It would be awesome and a good change of pace!

[@izzahhadirahvioletbloom4051]

As much as I love the ideas you shared in the video, I do have another possible location Gen 10 could be based on and that’s the Korea Peninsula because of the rich culture and history in that area, and I can imagine the place inspired by North Korea being the area where the Evil Team base would be located. Plus Pokémon did do a collab with a K-Pop group recently so I thought that could be a hint to something and not just a random sponsor collab

[@jordanjackson4086]

I'd love to have a region based on Australia with all the forms of wildlife there that pokemon can use for inspiration including regional variants of different pokemon and the evolutions of pokemon like komala and kangaskhan. I'd also be stoked to see what legendary and mythical pokemon could exist in said region with all the fauna and legends game freak could pull from like aboriginal ones. The western USA could be a cool region too with the native American inspiration they can use to make regional variants and evolutions of pokemon.

[@dannybright8708]

I may be biased because my brother’s gf is from there, but I think Brazil would make for a fantastic region! Especially since it happens to have the largest population of Japanese people outside of Japan, so there’s that Japanese connection there.

[@madnessarcade7447]

6:27 I think the water starter could be another water spider there are lots of spiders in Australia and would be the first bug starter and considering we got quaxly I don’t see them doing another duck esque water starter

[@alexanderjuarbe7205]

Mythical/in-game posters/paintings = next gen => Pecharunt = Italy (looks like Japan); Another region of Japan; China (peach central); Netherlands (in-game documentation)

[@nemothenobody7859]

I would expect a return to Japan or maybe even a revisit to Kanto with a new professor and a focus on divergent evolutions.

[@Enteringdullsville]

I’m personally hoping LA. It’s a fun contrast to Generation 5 being NY, plus Hollywood movie themed Pokémon is too good to pass up.

[@PaleoGuy07]

am i only person that want's a poland based pokemon region

[@punkdlaugh4234]

Yes

[@bluethunder92291]

I’m surprised you didn’t make a bobcat but to be fair that would be our third lynx Pokémon

[@Hack_Man_VII]

Sorry for putting more than one comment, but I feel this needs to be stated. I heavily disagree with the argument Water starters have to be able to walk on land. Some starters start off with more than one typing. May the water starter water psychic, and it can float. This really isn't that hard in my opinion, and I think it's a ridiculous limitation

[@rickytorres4213]
