:The ages come from deductive reasoning based on Sun and Moon. Based on the amount of time Anabel has been in Alola, we know Sun and Moon take place at least 10 years after the events of Emerald (which are contemporanous with the other Generation I and III games). As for the upper boundary, Porygon's Sun Pokédex entry says it was created "about 20 years ago," and since it exists in RBY, this means the gap between RBY and Sun/Moon cannot be more than about 20 years. Therefore, the amount of time between RBY/FRLG/RSE and Sun/Moon must be between 10 and about 20 years, meaning the only unknown spot in the timeline — the gap between Generations IV and V — has about a 10-year range.

:As for the trivium, I've removed it. It shouldn't have been on the page in the first place, since our standard is that "one of the only two" is not notable. [[User:Pumpkinking0192|Pumpkinking0192]] ([[User talk:Pumpkinking0192|talk]]) 07:11, 4 March 2017 (UTC)

== Age according to Pokemon Masters ==
A few months ago I added that her age is currently 18+ according to Pokemon Masters EX, which was reversed. Someone tried to make that edit and had theirs removed (sorry for not checking beforehand), and the explanation was that "we cannot assume that 'adult' means 18+ in the Pokemon world." That's fair, but both [[Leon]] and [[Sonia]]'s pages list their ages as 18+ and the source for that is that both refer to themselves as adults. I'm not advocating for the removal of their ages, I'm just wondering why it's different in the case of Caitlin. I don't mean to be annoying about this, I'm just genuinely confused.
