:::::Saying that Gen I is set in 2005 is absolutely ridiculous. I would call the member card date an easter egg and not something to be taken so literally. So I wouldn't count it was something to go with. Also, I've protected this article and the history of Pokemon article because there was been too many back and forth arguments about this topic. You should be discussing this in full on the talk page and be coming to a conclusion before editing the articles.--[[User:Force Fire|<span style="color:#44BAE5">'''F'''</span><span style="color:#85D2EE">orce</span>]][[User talk:Force Fire|<span style="color:#DA7D99">'''F'''</span><span style="color:#E7ABBD">ire</span>]] 06:07, 20 June 2022 (UTC)

:::::Why is it ridiculous? I'm not even asserting it necessarily, I just don't see what's so crazy about it. Either way, the Member Card thing wasn't my main point, my main point was the information about Looker's code name.

::::::With what you're saying, Porygon's dex entries and the book saying Gen I is set in 1996 (which it actually doesn't) are also easter eggs and therfore neither should be taken at face value, and the former makes it clear that Porygon supossibly being made in 1995 has since been retconned. And like previous revisions of this article have stated "Pokémon Black and White are set an unknown amount of time after those games," and I think we should keep it that way because the length of the generational gap was never officially confirmed.

:::::::You have no reason to believe you get Member Card the same year as the events of the game are occuring. It could easily be a few years after starting the journey.--'''[[User:Team Rocket Grunt|<span style="color:#CC0000">Rocket</span>]] [[User talk:Team Rocket Grunt|<span style="color:#666666">Grunt</span>]]''' 15:10, 20 June 2022 (UTC)

::::::::I'm saying neither of them should be valid because all three (book, card and entries) are easter eggs/references to the real world. The length of the gap between Gen II/IV and Gen V was never OFFICIALLY confirmed, and matter of fact, this whole discussion proves Masuda's point of taking timelines too seriously.
