Don't you wish you could escape the monotony of everyday life? Every time I look at my old backpack from high school, I think about packing it up with supplies and going on an adventure. I wish I could become a pokémon trainer and just go out and explore. What if real life were more like pokémon? Imagine if your area was part of a pokémon region, what pokémon would you find there?
Well I live in Michigan, so I imagine it would have standard Kanto pokémon with an abundance of poison-types like Koffing and Grimer around Detroit, lol. For lakes, I would expect the typical Magikarp/Goldeen mix though probably some Shellder, Poliwag, Whiscash... also, Wingull EVERY F'UCKING WHERE, some Starly and Murkrow around too. There would also be lots of Shroomish, Seedot, and some Cherubi too. Further to the north it gets a lot colder, so I would expect some ice-types like Sneasel, Snover, etc. I'd expect Pineco all over, I think there would be some Manectric too. There's some old mines around too, so perhaps a few steel and rock types thrown in here as well.
For gyms, I would imagine there would be a steel, poison, ice, and a water one.
The weather can get pretty CRAZY sometimes, it can go from very windy to nice in an instant and it's stormy sometimes and because of that I think it would be perfect to have some Castform around and The Weather Trio would be part of the local legends due to the amount of rampant ever-changing weather and unique shape of the area.
So, which pokémon would live in your real life region? What would your town's gyms be and what legendary pokémon would live close by?
