So we all know that every year or so, we get a new region (like Alola!). But, how would that work in the Pokemon world? Since Kanto is so close to Johto for example, how did no one know about Johto until a couple years?
Intrested in your thoughts!

I guess regions are like the continents of the pokemon world and they're just far apart. With the Johto/Kanto story, I'm guessing they never discovered it because no one ever felt the need to travel anywhere or maybe it the continents never came together. It could possibly be why there's a mountain there.

Idk, maybe Johto consists of people from Kanto so they share a league or Johto had a league and they changed it because it was in a weird place?

I like Serebii's version of it, they made a map which they call Pokéarth here although it looks like it is missing alola currently
I don't really understand the whole 'new Pokémon' thing in each region as when they had flying Pokémon and water transport for soo long they should have been to each of the regions

That can be easily explained. I live in Canada, where there's beavers, moose and Canadian geese in abundance. However, if I were to go to a country with a different climate, say like Australia, I'd see more kangaroos (of which I have never seen in person), quokkas (also never seen in person) and snakes. The difference between the real world and Pokemon is that the animals I mentioned in the real world were already "invented" whereas the new Pokemon tend to get developed as the games do. But you'd never see an Alolan Raichu for example in a landlocked continent like Kalos. That's how Pokemon change dependant on the region, and some are common throughout.
