>ITT: Timeline autism
I know some people think there's like a decade between the first games and the nugens (based on retarded shit like Anabel becoming a faller 10 years before SM means RSE was 10 ago) but let's look at actual substantial (and always official) info
>Pokemon RGB was released with the Pokemon Encyclopedia that sets the year of the game story in 1996, same year as it was released (SM also gives Red a shirt that references this)
>this puts GSC/HGSS in 1999, also same year as its release year

That's the easy part, now the next gens require more knowledge
>RSE was sneakily revealed to take place as same time as RGB in a tweet 8 years ago, this also lines up with how Red and Brendan can't trade pokemon with FRLG-RSE connectivity until Red expandes the PC system in Sevii Islands (not even with Lanette's upgrades to Bill's system you can see mentioned in her emails)
>the same tweet revealed DPPt is parallel to GSC, this is obvious as the prologue of DP/BDSP mentions the red Gyarados from the Lake of Fury incident

Then it gets wacky
>BW has no contemporary games according to the tweet, just that it takes place after the previous gens. However, we know it's at least 4 years after DPt since Caitlin, officially 14 year old, is said to be an adult (at least 18) when she appears in Unova. There's also a nameless character from GSC/HGSS who came to Unova, started a family and fathered a boy (who is far from a kindergartener). The gap between BW and B2W2 is two years (in-universe and irl)
>XY has an NPC telling you Team Plasma has been on news about Unova, this may hint at BW or B2W2, and Colress is confirmed to have been in Kalos in the past. The mentioned tweet explains B2W2 and XY do in fact take place roughly at same time. The irl time gap between B2W2 and XY in one year (2012-2013).
