timeline Reborn(E19) and Rejuvenation(V13): Geography and Timeline

[KingInfernal]

Note: the green parts are new additions due to E19. Also E19 Spoilers!

Recently i was doing the remaining Reborn sidequest, to prepare myself for E19. After making all the donations at the Grand Hall, i started talking with the NPC at the GH counter, until names the Orre-Reborn railnet project. As a soon as i saw it I immediately looked for informations about it, and then i remembered about that:

Quote

Day Unknown.

I have yet to be successful in making it through the stone door, wither by clever mechanic, brute force or simply digging beyond it. I don't know what kind of magic seals it. I do know that I am weak. I am thin, and exhausted-- physically, mentally, emotionally. I've clung to hope to reach Orre again for far too long. If anyone finds this-- Please apologize to my girl Snow for me. And her gift-- I would ask someone look after the Pokemon. I will rot away here, but it doesn't need to.

This is Captain Florence, signing out. Good night.

 

The guy in the lost railcave was tryng to reach Orre. This means that east-Reborn borders with Orre. 

Soon after i decided to make this: 

a map of the Reborn-Orre borders. 

Then i started to make an Reborn-Orre map all with the same style of the Reborn's one(this one is still work in progress, probably forever)

 

Other references to Reborn border with Orre being the one i showed are in the Postgame

Spoiler

during the Zeraora quest, wich takes place in the Chrisolia Deepwoods, one of the westermost zone in Reborn. In this quest is confirmed that the poacher are from Orre, wich makes sense considering that Chrisolia is the zone of Reborn with an easyer access from Orre. Also there is a  mountain in the westermost part of the Chrisolia Deepwoods, and there is a mountain also in the eastermost part of Orre, wich seems to confirm what i did.

 

Then i said to myself: "Why not do a similiar thing with Pokemon Rejuvenation?"

And so i made this:

Aevium is several times stated to be close to Kalos, and in the new chapter there is an NPC who say that Aevium is close to Galar.

 

Aevium-Reborn geographical relations

For this one i will take in exam just Rejuv, considering that just this one as references to the other.

Spoiler

During her story Nymiera say that, years before the Kalos war, the original Deity was splitted in three parts. One of this parts was carried in a "far away region" by the meteor. The region in question is most likely Reborn, for three main reasons: 

1. All of us knows that Arceus came to Reborn via a meteor;
2. Reborn borders with Orre, and in Orre there are the shadow pokemons, like in Aevium;
3. Nymiera has two representations of the Reborn's keys in her house.

(this discourse make me think how many things in her story aren't true(or literally). Not only she say us that Adrest and Meteor Arceus are dead, but also that the Archetype Arceus is the one that everyone knows, wich is false, considering that in Reborn they worship the Meteor.)

 

 

Also, if we takes the real life positions as a reference, they are really "far away".

Aevium is in Europe, while Reborn is in the west coasts of the USA(Orre corrispond to Arizona, and there are high chances that Reborn is based on a portion of the south California(Teknite Range=South Coast Range?, Carnelia Range(Ametrine, Celestine, Charous)=Sierra Nevada?). Also, if i'm not mistaken, Ame already confirmed that Reborn is in the "West Pokemon USA" between California, South Nevada and small part of Arizona)

 

Reborn-Rejuvenation timeline

When is Pokemon Reborn set?

A question i made my self from the first time i played Reborn is "where is Reborn in the Pokemon timeline?".

From what i remember, in game we have just two "time reference" to the canons Pokemon games:

1. Shelly. We know that she is Bugsy's little sister. Considering that Bugsy was probably 10 in HG/SS and that Shelly is 12 in Reborn, we can conclude that Reborn is set atleast 3 years after the HG/SS and D/P/Pt events and 6 after the FR/GL and R/S/E one.
2. Type: Null sidequest. In the 7th street there are a group of scientists(probably are part of Team Meteor, because, if i'm not mistaken, we see Bennet leave the lab) working on the Type: Null project. This can only mean two things:

          1) Someone leaked/sold Type: Null project informations to Team Meteor (8/15 years after Gen I events)

          2) Team Meteor take informations of the Type: Null project after Gladion and the MC free them all, similiar to what Macro Cosmos did (11/15 years after the gen I events)

 

I would exclude that Reborn is set 8/10 years after Gen I because Type: Null "evolution" is already called Silvally, and the name was given to him by Gladion.

Now the field is restricted to 11/15.

We also have this tumblr where a guy asks Ame where Reborn fits in canon timeline. And Ame replies so:

Quote

that is such a gap. anyway, it has to be quite a bit after XD, i’d imagine like 8-10 years or so? but as usual it’s deliberately a bit vague

She don't want to give us a more precise info, and this sucks, but she made the game and so she makes the rules. Anyway this still a really usefull information. As the anon said, XD takes place 2 years after HGSS/DPPt and consequently 5 years after Gen I/III. Doing some quick calculation we can say that Reborn is set around 13/15 years after Gen I/III. This also sorta confirm the fact that Shelly was already born during HGSS, confirming my previous affermation.

I'll place Reborn 14 years after Gen I/III because it's the average between 13 and 15. 15 years after Gen I/III for 2 reasons:

1. Being 15 a multiple of 5 is easyer to do the math.
2. I will explain this in the part concerning Rejuv.

 

Pokemon Rejuvenation

If we take the Rejuv Type: Null sidequest as a reference, we can say that Rejuvenation is set 10/11 years after the SM/USUM events. I say this because we find the Type: Null ball under the Wispy Tower, and the Wispy Tower has been destroyed 10 years before the Rejuv events. We can also exclude the hypotesys of a leak antecedent to SM/USUM events, because Matthew explicitly says that the various Type: Null copies have been created after the SM/USUM events. 

In chapter 15 main story we have also a time reference to Reborn:

Spoiler

At the start of chapter 15 Alexandra start telling us the story of Celine, the woman who founded the Aevium League. 

More than 7 years ago(between 7¹/₂ and 8¹/₂ years ago) Celine has been attacked by Madame X. She lost one arm and one leg. Their sons built prosthetics limbs for her. Then she go in a region with a really strong Pokemon League(probably not more than 1 year after the Madame X attack.). When Alexandra name this "powerful League" the game show this:

You probably understand where I want to go. The game show us the Reborn Grand Hall, but not just it. The Grand Hall in this image is after Adrienn restoration.

This means that Celine came to Reborn some times after the Team Meteor defeats.

So, second chaper 15, Rejuvenation takes place 7 years circa after the events of Reborn, which is set around 14 years after Gen I/III. So we can say that Rejuvenation takes place 21 years after the Gen I/III.

In Reborn E19 is confirmed that Rejuv takes place 5 years after Reborn.

Spoiler

This has been confirmed during Magearna quest. After you accepted this quest you will be able to see Tesla and Amber in the Opal Ward in front of the Grand Hall. If you speak with them Amber will tell us that she is 12, and knowing that she is 17 in Rejuv, we can say that 5 years has passed.

Great post - I love the feeling of a greater interconnected story to tie everything together, even if indirectly.

[Dark Legend]

Wow

[Oscarus]

Gotta save it somewhere because this is perhaps the best canon connection between Reborn, Rejuvenation and mainline 

[Endless sorcerer]

very interesting and good post

[KingInfernal]

I was looking on Tumblr some question about Reborn because i don't have nothing better to do with my life for curiosity, and then i found this.

A guy asks Ame where Reborn fits in canon timeline. And Ame replies so:

She says that Reborn takes place 8/10 years after XD, and XD takes place around 5 years after the Kanto/Hoenn events, wich means that Reborn is set 13/15 years after gen 1/3 games. This also means that Shelly is probably already born during HGSS events, considering that the game takes place 3 years after gen 1/3 and 2 years before XD.

I will update the post with this new information when i've some free time.

Shelly is Bugsy's younger sister. 

In Reborn, she's 12 while in Johto events, Bugsy is around 12 as well (more like 10-12, but still) 

 

That means:

- during the evens of Johto games, Shelly was a toddler or little child (from a few months to 2 years) 

- in Reborn, Bugsy must be somewhere around in his early 20s'

 

...crap...

I've made Bugsy in my Reborn fanfic an non-adult teenager, while he's actually older than Oscar (protag, my OC). 

 

Of course, that won't stop me from having Oscar bullying Bugsy for him neglecting Shelly and threatening to destroy his entire career. Which he CAN do - being an Ambassador of PWA and Lance's good friend.

Is there any reason they can't be?

I don't expect PLA to be canon, due to coming out after Reborn and Rejuv's lore was set in stone, but does anything necessarily prevent modern Sinnoh from being canon?

The problem isn't Sinnoh it self, but the Sinnoh lore.

For Reborn this means that we have 2 Arceus, one fallen from a meteorite and one born at the top of mt Coronet. Is also excluded the possibility of be the same Arceus because, if i remember correctly, Ame said that Reborn is far away from Hoenn, which means that Sinnoh and Reborn are far apart. This also count for Giratina, in Platinum Giratina is locked in the distortion world, while i Reborn it's retreated in the south est part of the region.

 

For Rejuv the situation is a bit more long.

Rejuv confirm the existence of (atleast) three different Arceus: one is in possession of the Reborn MC,  before the events of Reborn he lied in the form of a meteorite(El diary describes it as "a rock") hundreds of meters under Reborn City; another one is the Archetype, it is in possession of

Spoiler

Allen, Eriena(Erin), Alice and Maria(Melia?) since 47/57 years ago, and before that was in possession of Anathea family, which means that can't be the sinnoh one. It's also true that Nymiera describes it as "the Arceus everyone knows" but, like i already said in this tread, in Reborn never worshiped the Archetype, wich means that we have to take her words lightly;

Quote

 

 

and in the end we have 

Spoiler

Adrest. At the start i thought that he was the Sinnoh Arceus, because Nymiera says that disintegrated in the atmosphere, and i thought tha this meant that he was ended in the Origin Hall, but then is confirmed that is a guy with the power of change the fate inside us.

So we know that, lorewise, Sinnoh Arceus isn't confirmed exist, and it's funny because in game Dialga, Palkia, Giratina and Arceus are named Sinnoh Legendaries.

 

Speaking of PLA, seems to be coherent with Rejuv lore. I nevere played it, but i know that is said that the Arceus we know is just a piece of a bigger Deity, like in Rejuv. This means that there are more than just three Arceus. Is true that Nymiera tell us that the Original Deity was splitted in just three parts, but she also say that the meteorite and Adrest were dead, which is not true. As i said before:

Quote

we have to take her words lightly

because we don't know what is true in her story, neither how is this true.

There is an theory that Arceus we can see and use is just "one of their arms", which consists only a piece of power of the Alpha One. 

 

But that contradicts with the multiple stories of Arceus' birth and creation. But neither GameFreak nor other creators are consistent with their creations. Like-... According to different lores, Arceus themselves have created: Hisui/Sinnoh, Ransei, Reborn, maybe Aevium, and some other regions I've forgotten. And in many cases, it is said to be different Arceus. 

Y-yeah, even if Original One had been split into three few thousand years ago, that's still not enough! Also-, what kind of meteor was that to defeat and split it? Was that the meteor from 12th movie, which actually managed to do it, or stronger one, as the former only managed to knock them out and kill had it not been for Damos? 

 

I know that's fanmade; non-canon, but it is very complicated. And also contradicts with the events of my headcanon and lore-... 

Everything else is nice, good. But that Arceus part is SO confusing - Jesus Christ...

Zina disappears

Wasn't she confirmed to be dead? And hinted that it was Sirius to kill her?

Her tombstone is seen on Beryl Cementery, and Sirius in Yureyu has confirmed to know Anna's father, calling him "a fool". Plus we know he was hunting for the keys... probably even before joining Team Meteor (because we don't know where that did happen, and how old Team Meteor exactly is): for Ruby Ring he murdered Elena, for Sapphire Bracelet he set Belrose mansion on fire, and for Amethyst Pendant... that. 

Still... We don't know if he killed (or tried to kill) someone for Emerald Brooch, which was in Elias' possession. He could (theorically) kill Elias' wife/fiancée (assuming he had one in the first place), but because of certain circumstances (like Solaris or Elias fighting back), he couldn't get it. 

Regardless, as of Reborn's V18 and Rejuvenation's V13, there's way too little info to claim something to be true

I think Arceus didn't create any region, they are just myths, and as a such the don't tell the reality. Remember that every people has different myths about the same thing, often also from the same group (I don't know if i can do references to real life religions, but i think you get what i mean)

I was a bit doubious about it. Also i don't remember nothing from the Post Glass Guntlet scene, not because i didn't like it, because it's one of my favorite if not my favorite part of the game for now, but mainly because my brother decided to bother me right during the part with more lore.

Regardless, as of Reborn's V18 and Rejuvenation's V13, there's way too little info to claim something to be true

You are right, especially if we talk about Nymiera's story.

they are just myths, and as a such the don't tell the reality.

Still... Sometimes it is the only "logical" answer. Otherwise, how would you explain Ransei region being shaped EXACTLY LIKE ARCEUS?!

There is also one that say that the various types came from Ancient Giant defeated by Arceus

Ancient Giant... I've never heard of it. You mean Regigigas? Or that "Regialpha"?

Maybe i've explained myself badly. What i mean is that the fact Arceus creates the various regions is, in my opinion, false, but i'm convinced that every myth is based on a real event, just exaggerated and with the addition of various religious elements.

 

For Ransei... i don't think that Conquest is canon in both main-game and Reborn.

I really doubt we will never see something like that unless they make that Rejuv can read Reborn's savefiles.

 

I haven't finished the postgame yet (that's why the post isn't updated to e19, i will probably update the post the next week), but some of the Reborn characters that aren't connected to any route choice that can appear in Rejuv are(E19 and Rejuv spoilers):

Spoiler

• Agate Triumvirate.  Now we know that all of them are alive, and the Agate Circus is also in the GDC. I don't expect to see a quest dedicated to them(but there is a hope), but just see their sprites or hear their name when the GDC is freed from the Bladestars.
• Hardy and/or Cain.  Aya is in Aevium and is replacing Venam as Gym Leader(wich makes her the poison Leader of both Aevium and Reborn). Hardy is Aya boyfriend and Cain is her brother. Also i'm pretty sure that before or later we will see and challenge all the Reborn's rivals, as a nostalgic trio for who played Reborn and for remember that Rejuv takes inspiration from Reborn, the challenge part will obviously happen in the postgame.
• Fern and Victoria.  I've already explained why. Also Victoria in Reborn seems to get along with Adrienn who is in Aevium.
• Heather and/or Shelly.  Heather maybe for beat the sh1t out of Flora after what's happened in the postgame(i doubt but would be funny). Jokes aside maybe she goes to Aevium for a journey with, maybe, the purpose of help Shelly in doing some research, considering that we know that Champion Shelly timeline she is studing for become Prof Pokemon. I know that she isn't (yet), champion in actual Rejuv timeline and that timelin takes place 5 years after Rejuv and 10 after Reborn, but we don't how much you have to study for become a Prof neither when she started to study, but still a cute idea.
• Eve.  I will make this one simple. Aya and Adrienn start the restoration of West Gearen and found the base of P.U.L.S.E. musharna. They will call Eve, and then she will discover who really Flora is, but if she already read the news about Flora, she will simply say that Flora is a b1tch and that she has been stupid for giving the access to the P.U.L.S.E. to someone like Flora.

So i finished to update this post to E19. I really loved this game, except for the fact that there are too many 4th wall breaks about the MC, that i found a bit annoying. But other than that i REALLY liked it.

 

Anyway if i forgot something or because i actual forgot that or because i didn't played the earlygame yet, please tell me.

Reborn's V19 and Rejuvenation's V13 contradict each other in one manner: 

Spoiler

The creation of Aevium League. I'll show you why: 

On 2/20/2022 at 1:01 PM, KingInfernal said:

At the start of chapter 15 Alexandra start telling us the story of Celine, the woman who founded the Aevium League. 

More than 7 years ago(between 7¹/₂ and 8¹/₂ years ago) Celine has been attacked by Madame X. She lost one arm and one leg. Their sons built prosthetics limbs for her. Then she go in a region with a really strong Pokemon League(probably not more than 1 year after the Madame X attack.). When Alexandra name this "powerful League" the game show this:

You probably understand where I want to go. The game show us the Reborn Grand Hall, but not just it. The Grand Hall in this image is after Adrienn restoration.

This means that Celine came to Reborn some times after the Team Meteor defeats.

...and...

In Reborn E19 is confirmed that Rejuv takes place 5 years after Reborn.

 

See? According to Alexandra, her mother had gone to Reborn AFTER Team Meteor had been defeated, which was supposedly 7/8 years ago. But Team Meteor was ultimately defeated 5 years before Rejuvenation! That means when Celine had arrived to Reborn City, it COULDN'T be after the conflict was over, because at the time of 7/8 years before Rejuvenation, Reborn still was in ruin. 

But if that isn't a plot hole (which is unlikely, but still), that means that the picture of Celine entering Grand Hall must've been taken years after founding Aevium League. Which might be the actual truth, as Celine has different colored arms and legs; I don't know however whether the white parts are clothing, or prostheses, so that's a slight inconvenience

 

Still, there's a possibility Alexandra lied, or someone else lied to her and she only unintentionally spread the fake news... or devs tripped over their own storyplots and made a mistake which is hardly noticeable for mere players, but very apparent for lore geeks. 

Um... sorry about the last one, I can be a prick when it comes to pointing mistakes. Of course, everyone can make mistakes, especially in the such huge projects. 

But that doesn't erase the contradiction. As I said, maybe that photo was indeed taken after the Aevium League's foundation, but let's not get our hopes high.
