'''Almia''' (Japanese: '''アルミア地方''' ''Almia-chihō'') is the setting of [[Pokémon Ranger: Shadows of Almia]]. | [[File:Almia map.png|thumb|right|In game map of Almia]] | ||
'''Almia''' (Japanese: '''アルミア地方''' ''Almia-chihō'') is the setting of [[Pokémon Ranger: Shadows of Almia]]. The region is similar to [[Fiore]], in that [[Pokémon Ranger (Ranger series)|Pokémon Rangers]] are present instead of Trainers. | |||
== | ==Design concept== | ||
Almia appears to be based on the {{wp|Oshima Subprefecture|Oshima}} and {{wp|Hiyama Subprefecture|Hiyama}} subprefectures of {{wp|Hokkaido}}, the real life inspiration for the [[Sinnoh]] region. | |||
=== | |||
* [[Chicole Village]] - A village in the south of the region. | ==Geography== | ||
Almia introduces a vast selection of different geographical elements, such as [[Boyleland|a volcanic island]], [[Haruba Desert|a desert]] and [[Hia Valley|a valley]] that is constantly covered in ice. It seems to be based on the "tailpiece" of Hokkaido, which [[Sinnoh]] region is based on, though the relation between the two is unknown. It also geographically resembles Greece and Turkey, but the relationship between them is also unknown. | |||

==Trivia== | ==Trivia== | ||
* | * Almia could be located South of [[Sinnoh]], considering the shape of the region when compared to the inaccessible "tail" end of Sinnoh. This can be supported by the fact that Sinnoh is analogous to the real-world Hokkaido and if Sinnoh's geography is compared to that of the real Hokkaido, it appears to be missing a tail-like piece of land that Hokkaido has at its southwest, which Almia's geography bears a very strong resemblance to. | ||
