      NO THERE IS NOT 3 TIMELINES
      You claim infinity energy only exists in the 3rd timeline? In Omega Rube/ Alpha Sapphire president stone states that the devon parts in Hoenn were invented using infinity energy and technology from the ultimate weapon 3,000 years ago in Kalos, the weapon that brought about Mega evolution. Yet the Devon parts exist in gen 3s ruby, Sapphire and Emerald... so Infinity Energy and the weapon MUST have existed in these universes too, meaning the Universe Zinnia references to where mega evolution doesn't exist and the war never happened CAN'T be the gen 3 games, meaning that there are not 3 different continuities. The games are potentially all on one continuity, with splits for the different games/ universes along the way, but all potentially in one world or all separate... but definitely not 3 timelines.

      Why did you leave the original timeline out of the video? If they've been erased out of the timeline then so is Emmerald and the Battle Frontier because it does not appear in ORAS. You should do your work more properly.

      pretty much actually. the megatimeline has events exclusive to it(pokemon origins and oras),but everything that takes place in gen6 and 7 can happen in the regular timeline(exception:wally is not in the battletree in regular timeline for obvious reasons)...and the games even directly require gen5 xD not even joking,the games literally make clear gen5 happens. and honestly,i still think that oras and x and y have a plothole since appearently megaevolutions are only in kalos until that point and fairypokemon were recently discovered...even tho that makes no sence at all. actually,thinking about it,origins actually supports x and y and goes against oras too,since it is stated that the megastone in that series was from kalos and that the research is still really early

    It's pretty freaking sure that Let's Go is simply part of the Infinity Dimension's R/B/Y with a slight timeline shift. Mina is featured as a young teenager, meaning it's definitely in the Ultra games' timeline and takes place a handful of years prior.

She has suffered amnesia due to being lost in Ultra Wormholes before ending in the Infinity timeline.

      "That said, it likely is the beginning of the Infinity timeline, probably taking place right before OR/AS.
      "
      Nope. Let's Go likely starts a completely new, fourth timeline. The reason for this is the existence of Green, who never appeared in the series until now. Also, Red and Blue does not go through the original adventure they did in the original, Advanced, and Infinity timeline (where they take on Team Rocket). Blue only slightly helps out with Silph Co.

    • @ppvsonicspy
      @ppvsonicspy 5 років тому +3

      Mrperson0 Yes she has, she appeared in fire red and leaf green. And was supposed to be a part of the main cast in gen 1. So just because she doesn’t exist in The advanced timeline, it doesn’t mean she can’t be in the infinity timeline. Why would her existence create a forth timeline when it’s been established that the 2 timelines are already pretty different, she can be part of the normal events in the infinity timeline but not on the advanced timeline.

      "So just because she doesn’t exist in The advanced timeline, it doesn’t mean she can’t be in the infinity timeline."
      Yes, it does. We have basically left the Infinity Timeline behind as of Let's Go, so it's safe to say that the events of Pokemon Origins are pretty much "the Red/Blue" of the Infinity timeline, and she NEVER appears in Origins or the Gen VII games.

    Actually, the Kalos War exists in both Universes/Timelines.
    The difference is how the war is ended.
    The other main difference is how Mega Stones came into existence:
    - Kalos-based Lore: Mega Stones were Basic "Evolutionary Stones" that were strengthened/irradiated by Xerneas/Yveltal's powers.
    - Hoenn-based Lore: During the second Confrontation between Groudon and Kyogre, a wealth of Natural Occuring Energy flooded the two with "Ancient Energy", reverting the two to their "Primal" Incarnations. Rayquaza was summoned by the Draconid People and upon Mega Evolving, quelled the two fighting Pokémon. Rayquaza devoured the Meteorites around the planet and ["pooped"?] Created the Mega Stones that can be found around the Pokémon World.

    This was a very good video, barr some points that were not touched upon. An important thing to talk about is that the Ultra Wormholes allow different dimensions (or timelines) to interact with one another. The Ultra Beasts in Sun and Moon are attracted to those who have been teleported through these worm holes. The people are called Fallers. It is important to note that both Looker and Annabelle are heavily implied to be from the Advance timeline, and transported into the XY/ORAS/SM/USUM timeline, as they have both gone through Ultra Wormholes. This is why both Looker and Annabelle have lost their memories.

    Dude, I like your theory but how about we just stick with the mega timeline and the non-mega timeline, I don't think that gen 1 & 2 should spit off from gen 3 - 5. So Gen 1 -5 is the non-mega timeline and 6 - 7 is the mega timeline including any mainline game that has megas in it of course

      Problem is that:
      You cannot make a true timeline, since events/characters in other games contradict it.
      For example: IN USUM, its mentioned that you cannot be a trial captain when you turn 20. Red and Blue have aged, Mina has not. This means that USUM and Lets Go are not on the same timeline as the other Mega games. Same with ORAS and XY. They are also not on the same timeline, despite Mr.Bonding, since we know ORAS takes place before XY, while in XY its stated that they created/discovered Mega's first, meaning they cannot even be a thing in ORAS if they are on the same timeline as XY.

      the problem is that x and y and oras actually are supposed to relate to each other. gamefreak just made an oopsie here. also,there is nothing to stop x and y and gen7 from happening in the regular timeline. they jist recently found that stuff and the backstory is confined to just kalos and alola and everything is totally fine. also,it references gen5 a lot.
      and pokemon origins perfectly relates to x and y without breaking the rules like oras,so its in there too. i agree that lets go is a seperate timeline tho.

    Toshinobu Matsumiya, the pokemon story board writer, already explained the timeline in a tweet. The only confusion is the order of the ancient stories happen in. It's not that complicated. The AS/OR and SS/HG are remakes for a newer generation because the DS is more reliable than the old gameboy cartridges that literally stop working after some years of use. And to make it not boring for people who have already played the old games, revamped the story to include more.

    Pokemon Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald/OmegaRuby/AlphaSapphire versions are Set in 1996-1997, as there are many Connection s between Gen 1 and Gen 3.
    Pokemon Diamond/Pearl/Platinum/BrilliantDiamond/Shiningpearl versions Are Set in 1999 since at the Begining, Theirs a News Report about the Disappearance of the Infamous Shiny Gyarados, Indicating that the games start Shortly after that Event.
    Pokemon Black/White versions are set in 2006 while Pokemon Black 2 and White 2 versions are set in 2008.

    Try to follow my thought process here. If there's any suggestions to make it more realistic just comment.
    Emma entered a ultra wormhole and dimension traveled her mom believed she died while looking for her through another wormhole that lead her to the world of Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire in Hoenn. Although it is the first of several timelines shes been in considering the knowlege she displayed on dimensions at the mossdeep lab.
    Also do you believe that if pkmn ORAS came out first and introduced us to all of this and implied alot more details of what happened to Zinnia and gave more introduction to her character throughout the game. It would make the story for x and y alittle better; And by better i mean less friends and more harsh interactions with a actual rival and not a friend.
    Some edits would have volcanion diance and hoppa in there respective locations. The steam factory in the Lumious badlands is the actual hideout for the true villans of Lumious and the abuse volcanion which is why he hates humans. Also team flare will actually be a threat by having diversity in typings so you can't be prepared for what they throw at you.
