What? Did you think they would really try? The only timeline there is in the games is Gen1 and 2 along with B/W and B2/W2. Come anon, its a kids game adults play, they are never gonna try.

Partly true, but there really is no time line in the games besides Kanto, Johto, and Unova that can clearly be linked.

Based on Red and Blue’s ages a semi-decent timeline would look like this
>RBY/FRLG
Two years
>LGPE
One year
>GSC/HGSS
>BW
Two years
>BW2
Fifteen years
>SM/USUM
Hoenn, Sinnoh, Kalos and Galar all have little connections to previous games and don’t fit anywhere, but Blue is mentioned by an NPC in XY so we can assume that occurs in the 15-year gap between BW2 and the Alola games. I’m sure there’s some issue with this because I typed it all out in a few minutes without really thinking but I digress

All of this is discounting multiverse-related bullshit, I just included the Kanto and Johto remakes so whichever game you believe is canon can fit there.

Also looking this over the PWT is canon, meaning Hoenn and Sinnoh’s games happen before the events of BW2 since the gym leaders and champions are established. It also seems to make Emerald canon given that Juan of all people is there

Ok the Sinnoh/Johto connection makes sense, I remember that one, but it’s been a while since I played Gen 3, how do we know RSE and the Kanto games happen at the same time?

See, this is an example of cross game continuity, a time-line. Before Gen 6, they actually tried. Gen 6's mefas were when they stopped, and they stopped because they're lazy, not because it was hard.

Because the FRLG Post Game has a thing you do to connect with RS, but not E, and because they make references to each other in several ways that heavily imply correlation rather than coincidence.

And also because Gen 4 references things from 3 in ways that give clues to how long apart from each other they are, which roughly lines up with gen 1 and 2.

NEW POTENTIAL TIMELINE
>RBY/FRLG and E (Emerald is canon thanks to the PWT calling Juan a Gym Leader and Wallace a Champion, and we know Kanto and Hoenn happen at the same time thanks to FRLG’s postgame)
Two years
>LGPE (Red and Blue are established trainers who’ve been on their journeys already, Blue remarks wanting to take over the Viridian Gym)
One year
>GSC/HGSS and DPPt (happen simultaneously due to the Red Gyarados TV show in the beginning of the Sinnoh games)
>BW (just felt nice to put here)
Two years
>BW2
??? years
>XY (Blue is mentioned by an NPC alongside something about Pokémon research)
15 years after BW2
>SM/USUM
This is all based on Red and Blue’s ages and discounts any multiverse stuff, the only hole in this I can think of is it means Mina is a lot older than she looks, and Trial Captains are supposed to retire from their post at age seventeen.

Every Pokemon game from Gen 6 to present should eventually be remade and retcon all regional gimmicks and regional variants.

The only games that really kill the timeline are ORAS, USUM, and Let's Pee, so basically >>43804935 is right.
SM slots in at the end fine, and /ss/ can't really be placed unless one of the dlcs places it.

You're completely right. The worst thing Nintendo did about the Zelda lore was appeasing to the autists who insisted that MUH LORE EVERY GAME NEEDS TO FIT PERFECTLY WITH EACH OTHER!!

Not a single Pokemon character even has a decent character arc and narrative, why the -fuck- would you care about continuity in a series that doesn't even have good singular stories?

Other jrpgs do have a timeline even when they are completely unrelated (like smt). And those that are not, the entire lore is compressed and carefully crafted inside that +100hrs game (like FF). Pokémon somehow overcame a lot of these barriers because of extremely well executed marketing back in the 90s.
This franchise has devolved into catch cute mons and consoom. And there nothing wrong about that, because it gives a casual feeling to Pokémon that avoid autists telling you you need to play the games in a certain sequence.(example: persona 3/4/5 -> persona q2)
If there is someone here that cares about world building and lore across the games or
just character development/good plot, I suggest you to go to /vg/.
