Game locations vs Anime locations

[āruscio]

Just a quick question, for all you Pokémon fanfic writers, myself included. Do you use strictly just the areas in the games, or do you add places that are anime exclusive, like Chocovine Town?

Personally, I use just game locations because I despise the anime.

I use both plus create some places of my own (for example, "The Things We Do For Love" was set in a town named Hiluna Town)

 

[Falconwing]

Game locations, because my story is based off the games.

 

[Aladar]

Easy answer- a mix of both.

 

[some colour no doubt]

Try to mix both
gives you a broader range to use

Always game locations. In my opinion, the anime is just a glorified fanfic and if you base your fanfic on it, you're writing a fanficfanfic.

No one who is writing an anime based fanfic should take offence to this btw - I've read some very good ones.

Meh, I stay well away from animé stuff. The closest I've gotten to the animé would be Pokémon Special Pikachu Edition (aka Yellow).

 

[Zekurom]

I use game locations, plus my own.

Same as him.

Game locations, I'm much more familiar with the games than the anime. Especially when the larger part of the fandom follows and regonises the games, being the main point of the franchise.

Game locations mostly, though small things like irrelevant towns have popped up from my imagination. I do occasionally use anime concepts, though, due to the mix-and-match nature of my stories.

Games. I don't watch the animé, plain and simple.
