Despite not having that many entries in its main series (only seven, XY already included), Pokémon has a very convoluted timeline, not unlike franchises like Castlevania, Mega Man, and of course, The Legend of Zelda The big mess comes because, just like with preHyrule Historia Zelda, the actual timeline has never been disclosed While there are games that clearly establish the time gap between them, most of the time the real gap or even placement in the timeline Pokemon Heart Gold and Pokemon Soul SilverThe games were a remake of Pokemon Gold and Silver The games were given the look and feel of Pokemon Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum The games begin in Johto and after the completion of the Johto League you are allowed to travel to Kanto to compete in the Kanto League The Pokedex is expanded to 493 Pokemon Below is a timeline of events in the history of the Pokémon world, primarily those established in the canon of the Pokémon games, since these apply most to other forms of canon There is also a separate timeline of events for the anime series as well as one for Pokémon
