:::::::::And if you do make the argument that maybe they just didn't know about Mega Evolution, it can theoretically apply exactly as well to RSE as to RBY or BW or whatever. I really don't think there's a reasonable way to carve out RSE specifically (and/or certain other games) as being one timeline and leave the rest in the other timeline; even if you can theorize your way to it, it'll be very heavily speculative (require many leaps of logic/assumptions)—as opposed to the simplest explanation: that Mega Evolution simply didn't exist in pre-Gen VI games.

:::::::::(To just quickly and directly address your suggestion (if I'm not mistaken) that Mega Evolution was a recent discovery in XY: 1) the [[Tower of Mastery]] almost surely was not built "recently"; 2) a {{tc|Beauty}} on the Tower's fourth floor says, ''"When he was younger, Professor Sycamore trained here to learn about Mega Evolution. But he decided he didn’t have what it takes and left fairly quickly."'', which doesn't really sound "recent" either. If you can find your quote, that'd be helpful. The closest things I can spot in XY's script are [[Korrina]]'s line, "we still know very little about [Mega Evolution]" (if you take it a bit too far) and {{prof|Sycamore}}'s line, "[...] Mega Evolution, a new kind of Evolution", which still at least kind of contradicts him being in the Tower of Mastery.)

It's only speculation now but I just want to share my suspicion that the gen 1 and 2 games might be made part of the ME timeline. Since with the virtual console the games are easily connected with the new games, it would also fill the gaps in the new timeline without needing to make other Kanto and Johto remakes again.--[[User:DanyyelTR|DanyyelTR]] ([[User talk:DanyyelTR|talk]]) 13:53, 5 August 2017 (UTC)
