If it's fine, I'd like to take a stab at making the map. I agree that the side/spin off regions shouldn't be included in the main map due to them being a lot more speculative than the main regions. If they are to be included in the page, have them in a separate map and the main series regions with their own dedicated map. That way, it doesn't get too cluttered. As for borders/locations of the regions, I think it's best to leave it like how the 3 maps are currently, with a general location for the regions based on the in-game map or promotional art of the region. I don't think the games would follow state/prefecture/country borders anyways. But I think it's best to leave only the country borders to show the reader where exactly the region is compared to real life nations, however for state/prefecture borders I think the map would be cluttered and inconsistent with other countries. For the names of the regions, I think it's best to keep it like the current maps where the names are right next to the region. That way, just in case if the regions similar colors, it's easy to differentiate. As for Unova, I think it's best to have a pinpoint + zoom in map in the Atlantic similar to Jump Drive's map for Japan.

:: I've left Sakhalin and the Kurils in the insert map because I thought it'd help show/give context to the entire region more. For the borders of the region, I followed the in game maps and map art the best I could, following in game cities and landmarks. I felt Kitakami's location, like blueberry academy, was too vague for an exact location like the other regions to be included, but looking at a real life map of Kitakami, the rivers in the south east match the in-game river, so I thought it'd be best to place it there. If Kitakami needs to be removed because of its vague location, I'll be happy to do so. I have also made the Japan insert map as its own image.
