The '''Sinnoh''' region (Japanese: '''{{tt|シンオウ地方|シンオウちほう}}''' '' | The '''Sinnoh''' region (Japanese: '''{{tt|シンオウ地方|シンオウちほう}}''' ''Sinnoh-chihō'') is a [[region]] of the [[Pokémon world]]. It is located north of [[Kanto]], [[Johto]]<!--Sinnoh Sound-->, and [[Hoenn]]<!--AG187-->. It is the setting of {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}. It is composed of the large mainland, the north-eastern island of the [[Battle Zone]], and several {{si|Pokémon League|smaller islands}} on both sides of the [[region]]. | ||
Most of Sinnoh's routes are on land, having very few water routes, in vast contrast to [[Hoenn]]. The region is divided by [[Mt. Coronet]], roughly comparable to how the continent that [[Kanto]] and [[Johto]] make up is essentially a contiguous region. | Most of Sinnoh's routes are on land, having very few water routes, in vast contrast to [[Hoenn]].
