In New Pokemon Snap, there are pictures in the background of the laboratory that were taken by the assistant, Rita, and in a loading screen tip are specifically said to not be from the Lentil region the game takes place in. I think the implication is it's Rita's home region. As far as I know her name in the original and dub is simply a pun on "retouch" and not a name that might point to a specific nationality she may be based upon.
Furthermore, as far as I can tell the photos aren't of any area from the previous Pokemon Snap, one of the other regions, or the anime, and feel and look like possible concept art.
It's unclear by the wording if all the pictures are of one region, but a couple stand out...I don't have a good way to upload pictures so if anyone can upload them I'll add them here...
Off the top of my head here's what I noted...
1. A pretty generic looking meadow. Doesn't look especially notable and the most generic.
2. A huge acacia tree (?) in the middle of a plain.
3. What appears to be a big storm cloud hovering over a forest?
4. What looks like a rock formation or a desert, hard to tell.
5. A tall, red Euopean style building almost castle like. There's a little town square in front of it.
6. A very interesting looking building sitting atop water, it's crystal blue and looks like a stadium of sorts. There's an "N" on the front of it I think?
There's some more to the side of the background that I can't really make out but those are what pop out immediately. The red castle and the blue stadium are pretty unique looking especially.
The first thing that hits me is Australia due to the acacia tree, what looks like it might be something like ayers rock, and the stadium perhaps being representative of the Sydney Opera House.
Thoughts?
