>>44856429>I never understood the thought process of having RSE taking place at the same time as the RBY.It's because they planned to make FRLG, so they made RS happen at the same time as FRLG for link trade purposes (as opposed to time capsuling between RBY and GSC). Same thing happened with DPP having Johto data to prepare for HGSS to be released and happen concurrently in the timeline.
>What's the official map?No official map, but Blue thinks Hoenn is really far away (said in the Sevii Islands), and conversely, Navel Rock and Birth Island (which are in the Sevii Islands area) are said to be "far, far away" from Hoenn when you go them in Emerald. So if the Sevii Islands are already kinda far from Kanto, Hoenn's probably twice as far
