{{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}} take place at least some years before Black and White and X and Y, as the [[Royal Unova]] is stated to be currently under construction and scheduled to be complete in an unspecified number of years and [[Mr. Bonding]] is born. Further, if they are contemporaneous with the events of {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}} it follows that they are also contemporaneous with {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}. | {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}} take place at least some years before Black and White and X and Y, as the [[Royal Unova]] is stated to be currently under construction and scheduled to be complete in an unspecified number of years and [[Mr. Bonding]] is born.

:''"My people know it. From generation to generation, we pass along the lore about the distortions in the world borne by the Mega Evolution mechanism. And about the existence of another world, which we have long observed to be just like this one and yet not the same... That's right. A Hoenn region that's almost exactly like this one we live in. Filled with Pokémon and people like us. A world where maybe the evolution of Pokémon took a slightly different path, where Mega Evolution is unknown... A world where that war 3,000 years ago...never happened. A world where the [[ultimate weapon]] was never even built. And in that Hoenn of that world... What would happen if one day, out of the blue, a meteoroid appeared? What would happen to the people of that world, without the technology to destroy the meteoroid or the power to warp it away? ... Looks like it's beyond the power of your imagination."'' | :''"My people know it.

Zinnia's comments describe the world of {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}. The possibility of alternate universes gives some ambiguity to any perceived inter-generational continuity between the first five generations and the sixth; it is worth noting that the existence of alternate [[dimensions]] in the [[Pokémon universe]] has been explored in previous games, notably the [[Distortion World]] of {{game|Platinum}}, as well as in the {{pkmn|anime}} and spinoff games. [[Generation VII]] later confirms the existence of alternate universes with the introduction of [[Ultra Wormhole|Ultra Wormholes]], wormholes which for | Zinnia's comments describe the world of {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}.
