Not sure I'm clear on your question. The Pacific Plate is the largest, but it is considered an oceanic plate. It does include slivers of continent near north America. The largest continental plates are probably the North American and Eurasian Plates. Not sure how big the Antarctic Plate is.

The Indo-Australian plate includes the continents of Austrailia and India and the Indian Ocean in between.
