Pokemon to real world maps

I can understand not wanting the spinoff regions due to clutter on the individual region pages, which is why on the Japanese regions image I left the side regions out and instead added them to a separate upload.

The separate upload, North America, and Europe images are only used on the Pokémon_world_in_relation_to_the_real_world article, it could be said that those images exist only to be used on that article. As a result, I think the content of those images should accurately reflect the contents of that article. You may think that the spinoff regions are vague in location, but the Pokémon_world_in_relation_to_the_real_world article gives descriptions of their locations, so the images on the article should include them at those locations. Similarly the Pokémon_world_in_relation_to_the_real_world article lists the Sevii Islands as a subheading under the Kanto region, so they should be considered a part of Kanto in the image.

Zooming out the maps to include the entire continent or whole of Sakhalin is something that can be done and I think is a logical choice, but I think the spinoff regions should be included in those maps rather than left out. The only region I understand wanting to leave out is Kitakami since while its location is known its size is unclear, but representing it with a dot like you did in an older version of the map is a good compromise I think.
