:: Yes you are correct. They even had a performance at the Nebuta festival, which is a very specific choice. It is one of the biggest and most famou festivals in the Aomori prefecture. The mini float for the Aomori Nebuta was displayed at this year's Pokemon World Championships in Yokohama to promote the Teal Mask. It pretty much leans to the idea of Tohoku. --[[User:Thegrandpoketour|Thegrandpoketour]] ([[User talk:Thegrandpoketour|talk]]) 04:02, 14 August 2023 (UTC) | :: Yes you are correct.

Is Kitakami a new region?
Looking at the way Kitakami was presented in the Pokemon Presents (8.8.2023), it sounds like it may be a new region rather than just an expansion (like the Isle of Armor and Crown Tundra were). They describe the DLC as "extend[ing] beyond the Paldea region" to a new land, and the cultural vibe seems more Japanese than Iberian. The "school trip" piece also reminds me of the anime trip from Alola to Kanto, so I don't think we can assume that having a joint school trip implies that the two academies are in the same region. Should we assume (until it's clarified) that Kitakami is a new region? –Butterfreeism (talk) 20:57, 8 August 2023 (UTC)
- It's outside of Paldea, but its unclear whether or not Kitakami is itself a new region, or simply part of a larger unknown region. Landfish7 21:03, 8 August 2023 (UTC)
Kitakami: Return to Japan
There seems to be very strong evidence to show that Kitakami is an area inspired by Japan. It seems that since Gen IV, the mainline series has returned back to Japan. --> Clothes: They are wearing a Jimbe --> Architecture: The houses resemble the houses found in Japan, particularly Okinawa/some island. --> Culture: They are celebrating at a Matsuri, the shrine hosts statue with red bibs that look exactly like the foxes guarding the inari gates... --Thegrandpoketour (talk) 01:49, 9 August 2023 (UTC)
- It seems primarily based in the Tōhoku region of north Japan. The many apples remind me of the Aomori Prefecture (whose main export is apples), and Kitakami is a real city in the Iwate Prefecture. Anzasquiddles 2222(:D)SSSS (talk) 02:34, 9 August 2023 (UTC)
