That would actually be pretty cool. For starters I've always liked the idea of areas connecting to each other (ala Kanto/Johto) so an Italy region connecting to Kalos is very possible and would be good imo. Then there's a lot that could be used in Italy. You've got the alps in the north for your mountainous/snowy regions, and right down in the south you could have some stuff on Sicily as well, maybe throw in Sardinia too as another island, since unlike IGN I love having lots of islands and water to travel between them |
I wouldn't expect you to like the idea of a region based off Italy, imho there would be plenty of fire and rock/ground types due to the presence of so many volcanos, plus while they might introduce the highest mountain in the Pokémon world as of now with White Mount (or Mont Blanc if you prefer) at the border between Italy and France there would be no polar bears, the only kind of bears we have here are brown bears and they aren't even numerous... On the other hand I'm shure there would be plenty of fishes based off say Squids (hopefully with a Splatoon reference :v) and Lake fishes like perches. Also we'd have the Pizzamon to go alongside our compatriot Vanillite! Imho if Italy doesn't happen now I don't think it'll have a second chance in the Pokémon world unless the new region is germany/spain but even if that was the case I'd see Italy's chances lower than now... At least I hope they would make a nice story with all of the history my country has to offer and the possibility of a great villain team (Mafia) maybe even with some throwbacks to Giovanni...
