The timeline section claims that the [[Pocket Monsters Encyclopedia]] claims that "RGBY occur in 1996, the year of their release." But there are two problem with this theory; first, "1996年現在 (''As of 1996'')", the section from the book, does not specifically mean that RGBY is set in that year, it can also translate to ''"1996-present"'', which implies they are set later than that, using it to exclusively mean so is a stretch. Second, the Introduction section, where the "1996" part comes from, was heavily retconned in future games since it's publication, so I don't believe that excerpt should be taken at face value. {{unsigned|Inkster}} | The timeline section claims that the [[Pocket Monsters Encyclopedia]] claims that "RGBY occur in 1996, the year of their release."
