::::Let me ask it another way, then. Do you know if a Pokemon from a US game and a Pokemon from a European-English or Australian game really have the same "language"/"country of origin" byte? Not, like, they can have different values which the game may understand as both equating to "English"?

:::::I can confirm that for Gen V and VI, for Pokemon originating from different English-language games, the language byte is the same value, i.e. it is a value corresponding to "English", and that there is no "American English" or "European English". However, I don't have any evidence to say the same for Gen IV and before. Would it be good enough evidence to consider that, in [https://projectpokemon.org/pokegen/ PokeGen], the "Country" (misnomer) field has the following as possible options: [https://projectpokemon.org/wiki/Pokemon_NDS_Structure#Original_Language], and that there is otherwise no possible way to differentiate between a US and a UK Pokemon?
