Aside from the island itself looking exactly the same, there ‘s even UK-esque landmarks. If you look closely at the northern part of Gallar you can even see a tiny little Big Ben style clock tower!

Every British and Irish Pok ‘mon fan is clearly psyched about this, and it ‘s lead to some hilarious responses across social media as people imagine what Pok ‘mon in the UK and Ireland would actually be like.

Disclaimer: For those who aren ‘t familiar with Scottish twitter, allow me to explain before we go any further. Scottish twitter is perhaps the funniest part of the internet – they type phonetically, which makes tweets that would already be hilarious SO MUCH FUNNIER as you read them with heavy Scottish accents in mind. Here are a couple examples.
