New Galar region in Pokémon Sword and Shield might be based on the UK

It looks like Pokémon Sword and Shield is set in the UK 🇬🇧

Pokémon Sword and Pokémon Shield take place in the new Galar region. Galar is an expansive region with diverse environments— an idyllic countryside, contemporary cities, thick forest and craggy, snow-covered mountains. The people and the Pokémon who live there work together closely to develop the industries in the region. The new Pokémon games for the Nintendo Switch have been announced and there’s a certain British feel to the landscape. The concept has got people excited in the UK and beyond:

Omg Pokémon’s got me gagged that we were right about it being the UK region but I’m so gagged to discover the rest of the details and also so happy the fire starter is a bunny because it’s such an obvious pick for me already (if I don’t chose it don’t hold this against me)
