Tbh, I've felt that Game Freak doesn't cared THAT much about the timeline, what with the retcons and the issue of Arceus or Mew being first. Or perhaps they like to leave it open to fan interpretation....
The one thing I don't get is why people say that games in the same Gen take place at the same time. I've never heard anyone offer up evidence as to why FR/LG and R/S/E or DPPt and G/S/C/HG/SS take place at the same time. They just go with "oh, they're in the same gen, so they must take place at the same time".
Black/White and Black2/White2 don't take place at the same time, but are in the same Gen. All I know for certain about the timeline is that:
-Red/Blue/Yellow and their remakes are at the beginning of the timeline
-Gen 2 and its remakes take place 2-3 years after the Gen 1 games
-Black 2/White 2 takes place 2 years after Black/White
-Black2/White2 takes place after Gens 1-4
