Several pieces of content in the core series Pokémon games depend on the games having a timeline, but a complete timeline cannot be drawn from the games themselves. On May 7, 2014, [[Game Freak]] employee [[Toshinobu Matsumiya]]'s Twitter account posted a timeline of the core series Pokémon games;<ref name="Matsumiya">[https://archive.is/D9iPz archive.is] (archived from [https://twitter.com/matsumiyan/status/464052839870787584 the original])</ref> the tweet was subsequently deleted, however.
