:::::I think something like that is best. But ''if'' "Mirage Island 1"/etc really seems best to you, I ''could'' be okay with calling the sections things like "Mirage Island 1 (west of Dewford Town)". If you add an anchor for just "Mirage Island 1" below that, you could easily link just "Mirage Island 1" in a Pokemon's location then. For my money, though, I'd much rather just make the location explicit in the availability entry. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 16:09, 16 December 2014 (UTC)

::::::Being new areas, people would have to go to the page to find out where they were, even if they had precise locations. Giving them specific names (even if it's just a number) will help people remember which spot is where and what it has. But now that I think about it, the directions should probably go next to the names in case the community (or even the anime) comes up with its own nomenclature. "Mirage spot # (directions)" looks like the best option. <small>[[User:Glik|glik]]</small><sup>[[User talk:Glik|glak]]</sup> 01:00, 17 December 2014 (UTC)

:::::::Just because they're "new" areas, that doesn't mean they will ''always'' be "new" to people. Soon enough, people will know all they feel they need to know from Mirage Forests/etc, and if, at that point, they just want to find a given Pokemon, they shouldn't ''still'' be forced to visit the Mirage Forests/etc page just to figure out which location it is.
:::::::People ''can'' remmeber names, but numbers are not&mdash;at all&mdash;"good" names. Especially when they're never overtly reinforced by the games. If the anime ever wants to do something, we can worry about it then; we don't need to complicate things with what may not be a problem.
