based on what we saw in the teaser trailer, what time frame do you think Pokemon Legends Z-A will take place in? The Past or the Future?

    I sincerely hope that PLZ-A will take place in the past, but considering themes the S/V games and the futuristic feel of the trailer, I am afraid it might take place in the future.

    we travel from the future to the past, that's why it's named Z-A and why in the trailer we see talonflame become a fletchling

    also the lumiose map looks more complex than in XY so I don't think this is the past and they just gave up on making it pokemon friendly

    I think it'll take place in the past. It's a LEGEND after all, and LEGENDS can't come from the future if we live in modern-day, seeing as though LEGENDS are supposed to be old tales passed on.

    Case closed.

    I imagine that it would take place in the future, especially considering that we had a Pokémon game set in the past (Pokémon Legends Arceus), a Pokémon game set in the present and linked to the past and future (Pokémon Scarlet and Violet) and now, To top it all off, the only thing missing is a Futuristic Pokémon game (which would be Pokémon Legends Z-A) and also, because the game takes place entirely in a city, I imagine it's really in the future.
