Six regions have appeared in the [[core series]] of Pokémon games. They are, in order of appearance, [[Kanto]], [[Johto]], [[Hoenn]], [[Sinnoh]], [[Unova]] and [[Kalos]]. Each region has been the setting of at least three games (four games in the case of Unova) in the generation in which it debuts.  
Six regions have appeared in the [[core series]] of Pokémon games. They are, in order of appearance, [[Kanto]], [[Johto]], [[Hoenn]], [[Sinnoh]], [[Unova]] and [[Kalos]]. Each region has been the setting of at least three games (four games in the case of Kanto In Japan Only & Unova) in the generation in which it debuts.  


The regions are structured similarly. Typically, a region has its own [[Pokémon League]], comprised of eight [[Gym Leader]]s. Once these eight are defeated, Trainers can challenge the regional [[Elite Four]], which may or may not be shared with another, nearby region (so far, Johto does not have its own Elite Four, as it shares it with that of Kanto). Accordingly, each one also has a [[Pokémon Professor]], who teaches new Trainers about Pokémon and gives out [[starter Pokémon]] to them. There is usually a [[villainous teams|villainous team]] operating within the region that use Pokémon to further their goals.
