Pokemon Black & White: 'Isshu Region'

Just a little something I noticed while looking at information that was recently leaked via CoroCoro Magazine's 15th May leaked scans; PokeBeach.com say that the 'Isshu Region' is said to be 'very far away'.

Coupled with the fact that the main characters look a lot more 'plain' than the previous Generations' protagonists and that they are said to be 'older than before' kind of gives me a bit of reason to say that these games of the 5th Generation... could be set in the 'Western world', so to speak.
Why do I think that, you ask?

The Characters
They look very plain; no blue (or differently-than-natural-coloured) hair, (relatively) normal clothing... its almost like they're trying to say something...
Not sure if age would be an indication of a 'Western-based' Region, but I'll mention it anyway; my guess would be the mid- to upper end of the 'teens on age, since no specific ages have been mentioned, I don't think. 15+ is my guess.

Hiun City
This is probably the weakest point, since there are many places with big cities, like Tokyo and Hong Kong, but its interesting to see a city that actually has skyscrapers and such in it, being a hand held Pokemon game, and all. Quite possibly... a New York-like location, maybe?

The only real indication it may be a 'Western-based' Region would be in the fact that it is said to be 'very far away', but hey; until further information is released on the games, it can't be proven wrong, can it? We're all free to speculate, after all!
