Three years after Red and Blue started their Pokémon journeys in Kanto, Ethan and Kris begin theirs in Johto. How is this possible? Were Red and Blue born earlier in the game’s world, or did Team Rocket form later? Nobody knows, so we can’t determine exactly when Pokémon Let’s Go, Pikachu! and Eevee! take place on the timeline, even if they seem to fall into this general area. While the main characters Chase and Elaine do everything Red did in Yellow (such as defeating Team Rocket to becoming Pokémon Champions) Blue tells them about his adventures with Red. However, the game’s placement on the timeline becomes fluid when Red and Blue enter. For the most part, Let’s Go Pikachu! and Let’s Go Eevee! follow the events of Pokémon Yellow, but one version gives players an Eevee, not a Pikachu. While Pokémon Red and Blue were remade into FireRed and LeafGreen, Yellow was left on the sidelines until the Nintendo Switch. Pokémon Let’s Go, Pikachu! And Let’s Go, Eevee!
And, since they primarily retell the events of Ruby and Sapphire, the remakes also essentially take place during the same time. Because certain Pokémon can temporarily evolve into even more powerful forms in these remakes, the titles are widely regarded as part of yet another Pokémon universe, the Mega universe. Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire are, quite obviously, remakes of Ruby and Sapphire but with one major change: Mega Evolutions. But otherwise, FireRed and LeafGreen are updated copies of the games that started it all. For instance, after becoming Pokémon Champions, the main characters visit the Sevii Islands to defeat Team Rocket once and for all. Much of the remakes’ plots remain unchanged, but some differences crop up.
These games don’t actually “take place alongside” Red and Blue but instead their remakes, FireRed and LeafGreen. Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald occur in what is known as the Main universe, not the Original one. Arceus doesn’t feature any Mega Evolutions, Dynamaxing, or Z-Moves, but, thanks to the presence of Strong and Agile Style moves, Arceus might signal the beginning of its own universe. While Pokémon Legends: Arceus most likely takes place before every other game, it’s impossible to pin down the title’s universe. Even the Arc Phone’s anachronistic presence can be hand-waved away thanks to time-traveling Pokémon like Celebi and Dialga. Jubilife Village is the only civilization for miles around, and its citizens view Pokémon the same way real-life humans view lions, tigers, and bears: wild and dangerous animals.
POKEMON TIMELANE FULL
While every Pokémon game tasks players with filling out a Pokedex, they also take place in regions full of towns to visit, Trainers to battle, and Gyms to dominate.
POKEMON TIMELANE SERIES
Pokémon Legends: Arceus is obviously the first entry in the series chronologically. Also, since the Pokémon series doesn’t ever provide calendar years, we will label games as taking place before the adventures of the first entry’s protagonist Red (BR) and after Red’s adventures (AR). No spin-offs like Pokémon Snap, no anime, and no musical plays. Instead, we’re going to try mapping a rough map for the series’ timeline that should clear up some chronological confusion.įor the sake of simplicity (and sanity), we will restrict this list to main games only. So far as taht goes, the series has so many remakes that it’s hard to pin down a definitive timeline. This raises the important question of when Pokémon Legends: Arceus takes place in the Pokémon franchise’s timeline. The entire game looks like something out of Japan’s Industrial Revolution, and yet players can use a smartphone known as the Arc Phone. The Pokedex doesn’t exist yet the villainous Team Galactic is known as the altruistic Galaxy Expedition Team, and Poke Balls are handcrafted out of fruits known as Apricorns instead of mass produced. In Pokémon Legends: Arceus, players wander the verdant land of Hisui, before it became Sinnoh and before Pokémon were ingrained into the culture. The game is the first entry in the series to provide an open world, Breath of the Wild-like experience (even though it isn’t technically a full open world game), and, most importalty for our purposes today, Arceus is supposed to be the first chronological entry in the series. Pokémon Legends: Arceus is a game of many firsts for the Pokémon franchise.
