Global Positioning

[Jax Malcolm]

I've literally searched everywhere (including all over this forum), and I can't seem to find a map. What I'm looking for is a map of Kanto, Johto, Hoenn, the Sevii Islands, and -- if possible -- the Orange Islands. I'm trying to create a fan region south of the Sevii Islands, but I need to know the position of the other locations to get a bearing on whether or not an event that happens in a fanfiction of mine would make sense. (Namely, a character floats from just north of One Island to said new region in one night.)

Summing it up: Is there a map of Kanto, Johto, Hoenn, and the Sevii Islands (if not the Orange Islands) together? If so, where can I find it?

Please, no fan maps unless a lot of effort has been put into verifying the information on it. I don't mean to sound snooty, but I am looking for canon accuracy as well.

Thanks in advance!

This doesn't have them all but it's pretty accurate.

Mmm. Unfortunately, it doesn't show a possible equivalent to the Sevii Islands or the Orange Islands, so I don't quite know where those places are/how much area they cover. It sort of answers my question about where Hoenn is in relation to Kanto and Johto, though, so thanks.

Um, cant you just make a new region without using knowledge of the others positions? I have created two regions on my own, and that worked fine.

Are the pokemon regions really based on parts of Japan?

Unfortunately, no. The reason being is that it takes place half in my region and half in a canon region. As I've said before, the story starts with the character headed to the Sevii Islands, but then he winds up floating off course (in a life raft) from just north of One Island to the northernmost island of the new region/island chain. Thus, I need to be able to estimate how much area the Sevii Islands (and possibly the Orange Islands, as this takes place in the anime's universe, though the Sevii Islands and other game characters exist) cover in order to double check that what happens to the main character makes sense.

In addition, a group of the characters go back to the canon regions (specifically, Kanto, although some time is spent in Johto as well) later on in the fanfiction, and the journey is only going to take a certain amount of time.

Likewise, I don't want to put my new region in a place where a canon region/location (such as the Orange Islands or one of the Sevii Islands) is, though I still want it to be close enough for One Island to make the event I've described above to be remotely logical without having to rely on the laws of physics according to Team Rocket.

Long story short: No, because I need the fanfiction to make sense.

Yes. Kanto, for example, is based on a portion of Japan of the same name. (The Kanto Plains, aka the part of Japan where Tokyo is located, if I recall correctly.)
