Pokémon Legends Z-A takes place 5 years after X and YI fucking told you
>>58390368team flare felt like a fart in the windi bet the giant hole and toppled houses are still in Geosenge Town
Do we know whose in the game yet? Feels like the only old characters are AZ, Emma and Mable
kind of crazy we're closer to Kalos remakes than we are with XY being released

>>58390368>make Legends Arceus>holy fucking shit it's a game set in the past? KINOOOO>few years later announce Legends ZA>it's just a sequel to XYWay to fucking ruin the entire Legends spinoff series by making it have no identity at all.
>>58390368what the fuck, usually I'm inclined to accept that every new game unless stated otherwise occurs at around the time they released (RBGY 1996-1998, GSC 1999-2000, RSEFRLG 2002-2004, DPPt 2006-2009, you get the idea), so it made sense to think that about a decade later Lumiose would be this technologically advanced, but five years? Didn't they pull some similar shit like this with Sun and Moon? Like, one of the teraleak concepts stated that it happens around 2 years after B2W2 or something like that. Game Freak is really fucking weird when it comes to making a proper passage of time, man.And there is another screenshot showing that Leon losing the league in Galar has already happened, so how early would that even be compared to this?

>>58390474The only legacy characters in the game are Team Flare related + KorrinaAll the Gym leaders are gone although Valerie, Ramos, Clemont, and Viola get references Sycamore and Trevor are doing research in another region, Tierno is a pro dancer in Unova, Clemont is still a Gym Leader, Shauna’s date gets referenced
>>58391108>Shauna’s date gets referencedWhat?
>>58391121At Parfum Palace
>>58391028Hoenn Teraleak originally intended the region to take place 7 years prior to RBY (1989, when the original Capumon pitch would've been conceived) but then was shifted over to take place during the RBY story due to FRLG. GSC/HGSS were always 3 years after and DPPl are ambiguously after HGSS. The Teraleak timeline says BW were 10 years after DPPl so likely somewhere around 2010 when it dropped, making things contemporary again. B2W2 are 2 years after, same as irl, but XY take place during the same time as B2W2. SM are 2 years after XY (2014) so for "anniversary" games they miss the mark completely. You can stretch it and say Porygon was actually developed in 1995 (like Gen I) and SM are actually 2015This could mean Leon's defeat is actually the 20th anniversary (2016) and Z-A is only 2017. Ergo Pokemon is still in a pre-pandemic world. I pulled most of this out of my ass though, Game Freak probably doesn't care
>>58391027The identity is gameplay that's absolutely nothing like mainline retard
>>58391176Which file has it?
>>58391028Arceus>150 years before SinnohKanto/Hoenn>3 years laterJohto/Sinnoh>unknown amount of timeUnova>2 years laterUnova2/Kalos>2 years later and 20 years since Kanto over allAlola>unknown amount of timeGalar>5 years since KalosZ-A>unknown amount of timePaldeaThe timeline of the series so far
>>58391449>Alola>Unknown amount of timeIs between 7 and 11 years since Kanto.
>>58391491Porygon was a newly created Pokemon when the Kanto games happened, and they've been around for 20 years by Alola according to the pokedex
damn, lysandre aged hard then
>>58391510Remember that Green and Red are on USUM and they look later 10s and at worst early 20s, no way Alola is more than a decade since Kanto.
>>58391449We know it has to be around a decade minimum since the Team Rocket grunt from Johto's postgame got married and had a son in the meantime.
>>58391556Yeah, I completely believe the teraleak that there's a 10 year gap between Johto and Sinnoh to Unova
>>58390990>>58391049They left Lumiose bros... it's why that big company took over the Prism Tower.
>>58391530Most of the characters in this series look much younger then they actually are, so its not crazy to think Red and Blue are in their 30s
>>58390368>Destroyed a town>Nearly destroyed all life in the whole world>"Ooh that lousy team flare!"It's hilarious how much pokemon has to try to make mature storylines, but also be completely kid-friendly in how the characters talk
