Your comparing strange things. First in between r/s and emerald came remakes. Also between xy release date and now it will be 25 months at the date of this post. Also remind me what Pokemon4ever has to with Crystal because they seem completely unrelated other than suicune appeared in the movie. But yea most movies do reveal new pokémons or forms like with the lati twins or mega mewtwo way before the games introducing them come out.We aren't even 12 full months from the 1st anniversary of OrAs. DP's release and Platinum's announcement were like 20-1 months apart while BW and B2W2 were like 17, it's entirely possible for it to take longer than 2-3 months.
As for possible release dates we should keep in mind the games' relationship with the mascot's movie, Emerald and Platinum both came out after DD and GaSWS movies. Pokémon Crystal also came out after it's movie. The only games that came before mid July that were third version/sequels were B2W2 and that was only half a month. Pokémon 4Ever and Crystal had the longest gap at five months, so if they did a reversal of 4Ever and Crystal it would put the game in at least February. It'll be weird for the game to come out so early compared to the movie that is usually used to advertise the third version/sequel but then again Pokémon XY & Z season is having Zygarde appear in the anime ahead of the others...so the usual order is off.
