The Kalos Region | |

This region, loosely based upon the real world location of France, is a massive region with loads of cities to explore. It has factories, cities, caves and everything all dotted around The Kalos region is in fact so large, that it actually has separated its own Pokédex into three parts; Central Kalos, Coast Kalos and Mountain Kalos.
