I can't. As far as I'm aware, we just don't know.
My understanding is this: Heath and co go to area zero, they see their game's paradox Donphan and take a photo, with one of the members drawing some hypothetical other future/past pokemon.
These claims are understandably lavelled as a hoax and discredited, with the occulture magazine picking up the designs and running articles on them.
At some point Turo/Sada finds out about the paradox pokemon and goes to area zero for research, producing the "time machine" that supposedly sends pokeballs to the future/past so they can catch Paradox Pokemon.
My best guess it that it's actually a grandfather paradox where the only actual time travel is a paradox mon getting sent back to inspire it's own creation. So there'd be no actually ancient mons because the paradox mons aren't ancient.

That’s exactly why they left the fossil Pokemon out. They wanted to focus on the past Paradox Pokemon and not conflate them with the actual ancient Pokemon.

This is something I hate about these games, ignoring the issue whether it's temporal paradoxes or reality being altered by a being from a higher plane.

They wasted the idea of creating a prehistoric jungle with fossils and XXXL Pokemon of living fossils (Tropius, Meganium) for Scarlet and a post-apocalyptic set like in Terminator 2 for Violet's Area Zero, even a metal jungle like in Godzilla or a chromatic parody like in Spongebob full Pokemon with "futuristic" design like Magnezone, Rotom, or pollution like Muk, Garbordor, Revavroom. They could even up the ante with high-level Pokémon that couldn't be captured on your first raid until you beat Sada/Turo, creating fear in the player with each encounter.

They had the means and resources, but they simply opted for the easiest option and said let's go eat.

the only explanation that fits and explains all the weird discrepancies is that the entirety of Area Zero is a fabrication (maybe all part of the Dream World) and it changes based on whoever goes into it with what they believe it might be like.
when you read Heath’s book he talks about an expedition that took days. day 2 of the expedition he sees the markings on the ground, then it took him countless more days to reach the pit. the player sees it halfway down area zero so it’s nowhere near the surface. as a matter of fact, it only took the player and friends an afternoon stroll to get to the bottom while Heath needed to take days with supplies and a crew. Heath also saw multiple buried tablets but the only one the player sees is the single metal plate lying out in the open. the paradox pokemon drawn and photographed in the book also don’t really match the paradox pokemon the player sees, nor the jungle section its photographed in. it’s like Heath saw things completely different down there, while the Area Zero we get is just a passing resemblance to what Heath described, almost like if a person (the professor) read the Scarlet/Violet book and was told to recreate what Area Zero might be like in their minds, but details are wrong here and there because they didn’t actually go down there with Heath.
it might have to do with how terapagos terraforms the literal fabric of reality around areas with tera crystals, creating not only land and fauna but also fabricating fake pokemon too

and to add on, it fits with the idea of the Paradise the professor talks about, or Rakua in the anime. a perfect dream world that’s constructed within the walled garden (of Eden) of Area Zero
and the aggressive serves as the gatekeeper to paradise, like how the Garden of Eden has a cherubim guardian protecting the paradise garden

Calling the Terrarium "Unova" is like saying Pikachu is native to Hoenn because it can be found in the Safari Zone. It's not, all these Pokemon here are imported and living in a closed ecosystem. That's why it's called the Terrarium.

the fact that area zero is just some fucking spiral staircase with a cave inside was a waste of potential
