Pokemon, what happened to you?

[Maxpphire]

Gen 2 is definitely a sequel to Gen 1. It happens 10(?) years after Gen 1 does.

as for Gen 3 and Gen 4, there is no indication that they are direct sequels.

According to a few posts back, Gen 4 is happening at the same time as Gen 2, but there is no official word on it.

all that's known is that Gen 2 is officially a Gen 1 sequel in the same timeline.

Gen. 2 takes place three years after the first

Gen. 4's usually seen as taking place right after, or even during the 2nd Gen. because Jasmine makes a cameo in Sunyshore City, and seems to be the same age (unlike...say Misty, who changed her hair)

Edit: @ Lunkya: I think Team Rocket says something about it being three years since they disbanded

Pretty sure that Team Rocket still exists in Gen 2. After all they take over the radio tower and things.
