Merinawu is a combination of meridiem (latin for south) and Uganawu (Cherokee for South). Because I'm both very creative and not creative at the same time! The region is based on the Southern U.S. my home sweet home! There are 161 fakemon including 10 regional Pokemon lines, one of which actually splits into three. I made sure to balance the region out with the types, aside from dragon type, there are at least 10 Pokemon a type. I think dragon types are special, so there are only seven of them. Of course, I'm excluding starters, mythicals, and legendaries in my type count. when I first started planning the region I made the map first, does anyone want to see it now? I'm debating on printing out what I have and redrawing it, but I don't know. I modified a google maps of the specific area so what I have won't look super fancy. Also, those of you who watch me will notice this, I will be using a different format for the Merinawu Region fakemon than what I used for the Avalonian Region
