When do you think Pokémon Legends Z-A could take place? Theory

ANDI suspect that it takes place in the future, but because we already had a game in the past(Pokémon Legends Arceus) , and the trailer gives it a futuristic feel, and also because the game takes place specifically in Lumiose City, I think it fits with the future, and we already had a Pokémon game in the past (Pokémon Legends Arceus) and a game in the present that has a connection with the past and future (Pokémon Scarlet and Violet) and now, a Pokémon game in the future( Pokémon Legends Z-A) to finish, and I think it will be incredible for the game to be futuristic and take place entirely in Lumiose City, which matches the futuristic concept and also, to find Pokémon around the city, we could have a variety of parks and domes in each part of the city, including the Terarium, the dome from the Genesect film and the dome from the Amaura and Aurorus episode, so you could catch an Amaura in the cold dome, in addition to having catacombs and sewers to find more Pokémon, but what theories and points do you have? But I can't wait for more Pokémon Legends Z-A news.

    It is possible that the game could take place at multiple points in time, including the future, but the trailer suggests to me that at least part of the game will be founding Lumise City.

    It's 1000 years after the world gets nuked by Zygarde. Or Yevetal.
    The game is based off of the new Luimise city and hopefully this time it wont be as much of a nightmare to traverse (COUGH COUGH POKEMON Y)

    Adding onto the idea that PLZ-A is in the future, it comes out specifically after SV (present). Which came after PLA (past).

    I do think it's probably in the past though. But it being in the future would fit with how Pokémon is doing every plot twist and unexpected thing it possibly can recently. Like no Johto/Unova despite all the hints (instead we got KALOS), SV's ending, Champion Rank rival, three stories in SV, a DLC actually having an interesting story, the multiple traditions changed in SV like the professor not having a tree name, no regional bird, and more, the entirety of PLA, the way SwSh tried to portray gyms and the gym challenge, Alola's trials and league, etc. (They have been doing this for a while but it's gotten much more extreme recently).

    my opinion is that it should be an alternate universe where the weapon didn't go off and there are other troublesome events brewing as a result of those plans not being thought of
