Pokemon Special YEAR TIMELINE...?
[23:24:19] <@ProfessorOak> okay so. Red leaves Pallet. Two years later is when he disappeared. One year after that is Gold's story. I think Ruby/Sapphire is also happening in this time period.
[23:24:38] <@ProfessorOak> Half a year later after ruby/sapphire, is the deoxys bits
[23:24:45] <@Yellow> ... oh, if it's the timeline, I had it figured out
[23:24:47] <@ProfessorOak> battle frontier is a few months after that
[23:25:00] <@ProfessorOak> not sure how long after that is D/P though
[23:25:07] <@Yellow> Well
[23:25:14] <@Yellow> FR/LG is five years after RGB
[23:25:45] <@ProfessorOak> so if Adventures started in 1996, Red disappears in 1998. G/S is 1999, and Battle Frontier is 2000 because of the new year thing, iirc
[23:25:59] <@ProfessorOak> oh is it?
[23:26:04] <@Yellow> Yeah
[23:26:04] dppt is unknown right/
[23:26:04] ?
[23:26:04] <@ProfessorOak> then battle frontier would have to be 2001
[23:26:16] <@Yellow> DPPT can be assumed to be at the same time as HGSS
[23:26:23] <@Yellow> At least, the games are
[23:26:32] <@Yellow> And yeah
[23:26:35] oh right
[23:26:46] <@Yellow> Red is 11 in RGB and 16 in FRLG
[23:28:06] <@ProfessorOak> D/P starts on Sept 28th
[23:28:22] ....so much pokemath
[23:28:35] <@Yellow> indeed
[23:28:50] <@ProfessorOak> assuming that D/P isn't 9 years after emerald's journey
[23:29:20] <@ProfessorOak> which I don't think is likely since iirc they mentioned ruby/sapphires 8 badges in 80 days thing
[23:29:27] <@ProfessorOak> but assuming that, 2010 is still probably our future
[23:29:43] <@ProfessorOak> and 1985 is our past
[23:29:43] <@Yellow> Aye, probably
[23:29:54] <@Yellow> Though we still have transporters and pokeballs and cool stuff
[23:29:56] <@ProfessorOak> it's definite and yet vague enough to work with
[23:24:38] <@ProfessorOak> Half a year later after ruby/sapphire, is the deoxys bits
