Notes
- There are a few duplicates, especially in the US states, so please comment or edit if you find other locations, or if a listed location is invalid.
- It could be that you haven't set your State in the 3DS, so make sure that your State is set.
- Changing your 3DS location and catching Scatterbugs doesn't work. Apparently the game will only pick up your location at the start of the game, so you will need to restart if you want to change it.
- Breeding foreign Vivillion locally doesn't work either - the resulting Scatterbug still counts as being from your region
