yeah, sure, why not

In any given universe, niggers are still niggers.

If you are talking about humans in the Pokémon universe? No, Game Freak can't put racism in the game.

If you are talking about Pokémon themselves and fan opinions? For sure, rabid anti-genwunners and Gen 1 haters will be out for your blood if you even imply liking a Pokémon from Kanto.

not canonically

But technically it's not racism. At least mot in skin color. In the world of pokemon, skin color isn't really an issue so the concept of race may not even be much of a thing in their world.

I think OP is rather implying something like nationalism expressed by regoons that extends to the point where see if others from other regions as inferior. It'd be like calling someone from Kanto a lowlife criminal since Kanto is implied to be not as clean and may have higher criminal activity than other regions

or it could be based upon relations between regions in history. An example being could be that Hoenn could've taken territories in Aloha after a sort of war and ruled in a tyrannical sort of state over there, leading to shaky relations between the two in the future after that was all over
