Don't be silly anon, there is no such thing as a moon, after the sunset, the sun runs out of energy and it begins gathering energy from nearby stars, the moon is actually the sun recharging it's batteries for the next day.

Eh. I think it'd be more interesting to have them spread out. I know SA and Africa each have a famous lake, but I don't know where the third would go.
>>33235433
The Regis should be in really ancient and prominent areas of past civilizations. Regirock in a big Sumerian city ruin, Registeel in some place that has to do with the Bronze Age or something, and Regice in the northern hemisphere since that's where all the big civilizations were. I think there's like an ice hotel or something in either Japan or Scandinavia. Not that it would matter since we'd have to look at ancient civilizations for these guys.
>>
>>33235454
Manaphy would probably be from the Arctic circle or the Antarctic shelf, since Phione are born in the warmer climates. If even Sinnoh is too warm for Manaphy to breed properly, then it has to be from somewhere extreme.

The badlands are a huge desert in Midwest America. Sometimes, if the weather and time of year line up just right, huge parts of the desert suddenly explode into a giant fields of yellow and purple flowers. This is probably where the Shaymin go for their migration.

The Ultra Beasts would probably be hanging around these places. They don't really strike me as things that would want to live among nature, so they just naturally gravitate toward abandoned cities.

I'm just going to assume we're doing this for fun because there's so many things to factor in and research for proper placement. You can already see the bias with all those in the US since that's where most /vp/oreons live and are thus most familiar with. Also there are already some pokemon that don't make sense like Heatran not being in a volcano, Suicune not roaming, and Kyogre not being in a trench.

Anon is right, there's a little too much clutter in the USA/Canada region

I moved the lake trio to different lakes and I moved Kyogre to Mariana's trench. We need to move Lugia.

The places of the creation trio will only be considered to be the locations of the portals to reach their parallel areas, like the Catacombs in for Giratina.

I think we should move Shaymin to somewhere in Europe and Sogaleo to somewhere in Asia or Africa.

Maybe Xerneas somewhere too.

I moved Heatran to the volcano in the Democratic Republic of the Congo named Nyamuragira. Look it up, it looks pretty cool and fitting for Heatran.

I moved Lugia to the Mid Atlantic Ridge and Shaymin to the Netherlands.

I also moved Tornadus to eastern India, near Bangladesh. Unsure why I did this, but that place is known to have many tornadoes.

I feel like Ho-oh should be at Kinkakuji since that's what the bell tower is based on. Hell, it's called the Golden Pavilion and even has a phoenix ornament on too. I also think Lugia should be located in the Mariana Trench since it tends to be located at the bottom of deep trenches in the games. It's also located right next to Japan so the two would be in close proximity to each other.

Zapdos could be in a power plant like in the games, 3 Gorges Dam in China maybe since it's the largest hydroelectric power plant in the world

>>33249543
Complaints I have are that Cosmog's line is not a one off species, so Solgaleo shouldn't even be there unless the entire line is, and the Legendary Birds including Articuno are roamers and implied less to be unique and more just stupidly rare

So maybe with Articuno, have a migration pattern put on the map? Same with Zapdos and Moltres

Suicune also roams the world, so it wouldn't have a solid home

If it's not too much to ask, do you think you could write the site's names too?

Zhangzhung ruins for Dialga/Palkia
Highest ruins in the world, would be fitting like Spear Pillar.
>>
>>33251720
That would also be a nice place for Rayquaza (Sky Pillar)

Idk why but I'd put the musketeers in Asturias (which is near to France)

Move deoxys to Switzerland. Isn't deoxys based on DNA? And DNA was first isolated by Friedrich Miescher.

Xerneas should go in the Tigrus River valley, where the first human civilization and Dawn of modern Life began

Palkia at Kennedy Space Center
>>
>>33251919
I don't think a pokemon who is able to manipulate reality like Palkia should go to a place with quite a lot of people like the Kennedy Space Centre.

Hmm... How about the big ass telescope in Hawaii? The one that can see hella far into space

Palkia should go at the Teotihuacan, next to Rayqyaza of course
>>
>>33252076
Shiny Rayquaza should go next to Rayquaza

You would probably find Xerneas in the Hoh rainforest in Washington.
>>
>>33252114
On Teotihuacan, right?

Why is Tornadous in the U.S.? I know about the tornado alley, but I'm pretty sure there are places where tornadoes are more often to occur.
>>
>>33252187
Tornado alley has the highest area to tornado ratio in the world

Aren't Manaphy eggs only formed in clean, tropical waters? That far north seems too cold for it

Also, Necrozma as far north as possible, right between Canada and Russia

Because Northern Lights

I was complaining about NA earlier. And of course I'm going to complain about Europe now.
>>33251052
Regigigas should be hidden away somewhere, "they feared it" after all. Also Darkrai avoids people like the plague and Europe is chock full of them. Verizion should also be hidden away, since the Musketeer trio also hate humans due to war and need I remind people that Europe had 2 (two) of them?
>>
>>33252609
Maybe we can all just ignore the map and go back to posting cool locations?
>>
Paris catacombs for Yveltal obviously

I want the Tapus to be on islands
>Bulu in Yokohama (Japan) cause earthquakes
>Fini in Newfoundland (Canada) cause fog
>Lele in Okinawa (Japan) cause long lifespan
>Tapu in ???

>>33252609
Fuck off burger
>>
>>33252858
desu that'd probably be best since the regions don't translate well into actual locations but since there's a map now people are just gonna argue about where everything is supposed to go and how they have a location that will better suit this or that pokemon
>>
Aren't the legendary birds located in 3 islands close to each other based on the movie?
>>
>>33252609
Fuck off, the U.S. shouldn't get any because it's a cultureless shit-hole.

The Pokemon world is way too cruel, they just show us the bright side of it in the games.
