Alrighty then. We need something related to the concept of the war between light and dark, but that can be worded indirectly to sound like a legitimate Pokemon world name.
Any ideas? I'm still thinking right now.

Yes, but this generation isn't ABOUT color.
Sinnoh is close to sin, meaning horrible wrongdoing, basically. Does Sinnoh have anything to do with sins? No.
Does Hoenn have anything to do with hoes? No
Then why the hell would people care if Chrona has anything to with color, or time? They wouldn't spend days trying to find that out.
Chrona and Chrono are also two different things. Chrono has NOTHING to do with light.

As you noted on the front page, Chrono refers to Coronae, which means eclipse, which is an obscuration of light.
I win, clearly.

Just got an idea! We should make a town called Soluna!

But you just posted saying that time and light were practically the same thing, as in Chrono = time/light.
What does it have to do with time? You haven't clearly won yet!

Yeah, and what is it that the darkness is doing in this game? Being at war with the Aura type for whatever reason. Obscuring Aura's presence in the world.

Because if you go as fast as light, you could time travel.

Chrona can be taken two different ways. The first way, referring to eclipses, an obscuration of light, and the second way, being Chrono, which is a prefix describing words related to time.
You can't win.

Well, if they construde it as a time reference, then that's their problem. Since when do game creators care if the gamers catch the symbolism?
It's this method of thinking that makes Earthbound the awesome game it is.

Is Chrona even a real word? No. So that's a first.
Second, Chrono is taken for time more than it is for eclipses.
Third, light isn't an eclipse, it's a mixture or alignment of light and darkness makes an eclipse.

YOU CANNOT TIME TRAVEL AT THE SPEED OF LIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!  If you went at the speed of light, Time would stop for you. If you went FASTER then the speed of light, you would go bakwards in time. Capisci? |

Yes, but Earthbound isn't Pokemon. Since when would someone name a region Chrona anyway? Think of the regions of Pokemon as individual countries. Nobody would name a country Chrona, that's just common sense.

Since when would someone name a region Silcoh anyway? I wouldn't want a country named Kanto, Hoenn, or Sinnoh (Johto's pretty cool though)
You're proving yourself wrong while attempting to prove KE wrong.
