Whether you're just now getting into Pokémon, or you've indulged in the games and shows and toys for quite some time, you may still find your understanding a bit vague on the universe they are portraying. Sure, you know the Pokémon themselves, and what you are expected to do with them, but why are the games so different from each other, and how do they fit together?
Believe it or not, there was a time in the Pokémon world in which people didn't try to "catch 'em all." Poke Balls were hand-carved out of fruit. If you encountered this early game unexpectedly, we can't blame you for being confused. But if you knew how they unfolded over time, you can arrange your games in chronological order -not necessarily from when they were released, but by when they take in the Pokémon universe.
The games were developed over time since 1996, so they are going to be different. Den of Geek has constructed a timeline of the main Pokémon games, with explanations for each, designed to help you make sense of the Pokémon video game universe in which we can see different time periods.
