What general landmarks should there be in the country. Don't go describe a specific thing, but this is for the creators to take care of. Do we want a desert, a swamp or even a volcano?
Please post about what landmarks would need to be included, I won't go add random things to the these need to be here.

We're obviously going to need a big mountain to represent Everest, since that's such a dominating feature of the region.
Also, what kind of climate is the region going to be? That could help people to come up with ideas. For example, Sinnoh is cool and Hoenn is tropical-ish.

Well actually, India has a wide range of climates, from the Thar desert in the west, to the himalayas in the north, to the tropical jungle in the south.

The cities (particularly Mumbai) will probably be very big, very polluted, very congested, and crime-filled. There will also be Pokemon literately everywhere, as India is filled with wildlife.

To support things well, I feel we at least need some place every type could be in, so that none will be excluded in a strange way (cough Sinnoh). I feel that a Volcano would be great for this, in addition to other things. Notice that these are all general for the type, they won't have to be there, but it'd be a place where many of those could be.
Normal - Wherever Flying - Maybe a high tower somewhere? That reaches far into the sky. Not necessary though, so won't include it. Just an idea. Fighting - Wherever Poison - Swamp would be cool but not needed. Bug - Forest (others too but forest is important) Fairy - Wherever Water - Ocean / Water routes. (Could be done with creative stuff) Grass - Plains, forest Fire - Volcanoes, plains Electric - Power plant would be cool, but not necessary. Ice - Mountain, icy plains. Rock - Caves Ground - Highlands, Desert Steel - Mountain Psychic - Haunted House (Tai Mahal?) Dark - Haunted House, wherever Ghost - Haunted House Dragon - No Idea, wherever
Most can be found in most places, but I feel we should have at least enough plains (grassland), forests, caves, water routes and highlands. In addition to that, I'd like at least one, but possibly more mountains, a volcano, a desert and a place for ice types, whether high up a mountain or a plain.

Both flying and Ice types could be in the Himalayas, along with rock and ground types in caves. What if we put some Dragon pokemon on the very top of the our Mt. Everest-like mountain?

Remember, Indian cities are pretty polluted and chaotic, so a Poison/Steel/Dark type gym could be placed in a big city.
Also the Taj Mahal isn't really haunted...
If we want we could include some regions on the border of India, for example Sri Lanka.

Since the region is based off of India, there should be a temple/temples around the region. There should also be a Taj Mahal- like monument in one of the bigger cities, as it is one of India's biggest population site. Maybe there could even be a palace somewhere.

I agree about adding a Taj Mahal-like monument, it would be a good area to encounter Psychic and Ghost type Pokemon.

I'm going to make a list of things we want to have tomorrow. I think personally creators should have the liberty of adding a decent amount (within guidelines) otherwise. Please reply soon if you still want to voice your opinion.

The Taj Mahal may not be haunted but it was actually built as an elaborate tomb for a Mughal Emperor's favorite Queen after she died... dang it school why did I have to learn this? But yeah, we could easily give it a creepy feel I think

We can exaggerate a bit, btw. Even if it isn't haunted why should that stop ghost types being found there.

Mountain India has quite the amount of prominent Mountain Ranges. The Hindu Kush and the Himalayas. IMO, the villain team should have a base over there and the cover legend should appear here. Pollution Cities are polluted so this should not be a surprise. Jungles Wildlife, there should be more forests. Shiny Celebi could make an appearance as an easter egg. Desert Residence of Ground-Type Pokemon, struck by drought. Should be some sidequest in finding the water while your here Taj Mahal Ghost type Pokemon, Psychic Type Pokemon, Dark Type Pokemon should be found here. Mughal Queen is buried here. *creep*

I'm pretty sure this is listed in the Brainstorming thread, but if we semi add some features/characters from PS (Zarel as Champ?), we could have banned/locked users be represented in the crime-filled city, and possibly add a Jail with Dark-types and Ghost-types in the storyline (maybe evil team's base?).

I personally would like to see a Temple (for Ghost types), Power Plant (Electric types), and a volcano/lava area (fire types). A good forest would be nice as well.

I feel a lot of things can be done with the himalayas especially. Imo I think it could be a pretty large part of the game and would work quite well as a more challenging lategame location, with permahail outside and also having to venture into mountain caves and the sort a bit like Mt.Coronet. There should probably be some sort of base camp town, with the population representing the local people of nepal (i cant remember what they are called I'll paste this in in a minute).
In getting to the base camp I would probably think you have to pass through mountainous terrain, but not in icy conditions. Then from base camp you are required to scale some mountains, where the snow, and ice type pokemon would be. However, I think it would be nice if theres a part you cant access until the post-game, possibly being towards the peak of mt.everest somewhere. There could be some generic npc saying how only advanced trainers can go up and such. When returning in the post game, this area would be unlocked and have a mt.silver kinda feel to it. If beartic does win the mega competition, then this could be where you find its mega stone, or would be the location of some pseudo-legend yeti-mon or something.
With the haunted Taj Mahal thing, I think that could work quite well. You could have NPCs saying how it used to be a popular tourist destination until a load of ghosts appeared, and maybe throw something about how it must be the ghost of whoever it was meant to be a tomb-sorta thing for.

Apparently I can'd edit the above, but yeah by the locals I meant the Sherpas.

I mean I'd like to point out that since most Pokemon games don't follow the regions they're based off to a tee, we don't have to either. Like the Taj Mahal isn't really haunted, but you could just dump in a really spooky palace. With the haunted Taj Mahal thing, I think that could work quite well. You could have NPCs saying how it used to be a popular tourist destination until a load of ghosts appeared, and maybe throw something about how it must be the ghost of whoever it was meant to be a tomb-sorta thing for. I think it would be pretty good if this spooky palace thing would be like the biggest dungeon in the game, maybe only second to Victory Road. Since the actual Taj Mahal is so frickin' big, you could even have some areas of it that are only available postgame (this is a good idea)

Maybe make the Taj Mahal structure the actual Victory Road building where you start against the Elite 4 and the Champion?

I don't think Taj Mahal should be Elite 4 place, but more a haunted maze that has traps and a BIG prize if you get to the end (it's pitch black and you can only see your character and like 1 in game foot around him)
On the top of the big mountain I think Zarel should sit, and then you fight him (Post-game) Then again who would be champion? unless Zarel is champion and Mount Everest is Pokemon league?
I think Climbing up the mountain should be quite difficult, like you'd need to use items and stuff that you get at base camp, and then there are trainers around the mountain that battle you, and it's auto hail, and there's wild Ice Pokemon, and there is a chance of an avalanche that sweeps you down to base camp again. we don't need. All of those but I think some would be good

Bringing this back from the dead.
Everest is the tallest mountain in the world, so should be extremely tall and should take a long time to get to the top, whatever we use it for. Taj Mahal is a good idea, but I'm not sure about its location being the right place, and moving the Taj Mahal would be a bit... controversial.
Qatab Minar is a very tall tower in India, maybe Flying-types could be found there? There's also quite a few forts in India, maybe we can incorporate them...

Iv just wiki'ed India and found an amzing place, I know it maybe to specific, but in the himilayers, there is a place known as the Valley of Flowers (National Park)(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valley_of_Flowers_National_Park). What makes this place really interesting, is that it high alltitude and has its own mirco climate. The density of animal there are few but they are some of the rarest or most endangered in all of India and are an extremely diverse selection.
This could contain the games rarest pokemon ranging from all types. Posibilities for area are that it could maybe house a legend or be a path to something else.
