[[WMG: Mars is Ariana's little half-sister.]]
Alternative to the above, and would manage to handwave why no mention is made of any Team Rocket-Galactic ties. When Ariana was a teen, her parents separated. Her dad fell in love with Mars' mom, who was from Sinnoh, and ended up moving there and had Mars. Resentful over this, Ariana decided to stay with her mom in Johto and eventually join Giovanni in founding Team Rocket. Silver inherited his maternal grandfather's hair style like his mother and young aunt did.

[[WMG: Bertha is Byron's mom, and Roark's grandmother.]]
Both Roark and Byron are in charge of types typically associated with minerals and the earth; Rock and Steel types. So is Ground types. Rock loses to Steel, Steel loses to Ground. Roark and Byron are the only examples besides Koga and Janine where gym leaders are direct relatives. And she looks old enough. Bertha is the mother of Byron, wife to the Underground Man and grandmother of Roark; the more generations you go up, the tougher it gets. Byron gets his hair color from her back when she wasn't grey.

[[WMG: Manaphy is the child of Kyogre and Palkia]]
Palkia and Kyogre had a fling, and Manaphy was born from it, he's the prince of the sea because his parents are legendary Water-types and the only members of their respective species. If Palkia and Kyogre ended up having another child (easy since they're curretly caught by May Birch and Dawn Berlitz) the child will be another form of Manaphy which will breed to make another form of Phione.
*Two Manaphy of different forms will end up breeding a generic Manaphy form known as "Hybrid Manaphy".

There are plenty of Non-Sinnoh, Non-Megaevolving pokemon available in the sinnoh dex that could addapt to the winter environments, or...

[[WMG: their will be Disortion Forms]]
The remakes will be more involved with the disortion world and include pokemon that fell into it and got mutated by the anti-gravity properties of the dimension.

[[WMG: More Fire Types will be native to Sinnoh in the remakes]]
* A common complaint about Diamond and Pearl was the lack of fire types - before beating the Elite Four, if you didn't choose Chimchar, your only option was Ponyta/Rapidash. Platinum rectified this by adding in a few more fire type Pokemon; and given that 3 generations of new Pokemon have been added since those games were released, logic dictates that, oh say, Salandit gets added to the list of Pokemon capturable in the Sinnoh Region (or maybe perhaps the player can find a Larvesta Egg).

** Given what happened in Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire,
Sapphire, odds are that they'd probably be willing to do this for Pokemon from the first 2 generations and maybe some Gen V legendaries. However, odds are that they won't include Gen III, VI, or VII legendaries, due to the fact that those are on the current system that the remakes are on (unless Nintendo was to release the remakes on the Switch). Odds are that 1-2 event legendaries would be catchable in a normal playthrough - best bet is that Darkrai and Manaphy are the ones that get added[[note]]Harbor Inn is in Cavalance City, which one has to visit to get the 6th Gym Badge; and Manaphy is part of the National Pokedex in Platinum - while the player does not need to catch it, they do need to have the Pokedex entry[[/note]].

** Given what happened in Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire,




to:

** The only problem with the former scenario is that in Platinum, Cyrus summoned both legendaries and that enraged Giratina, causing it's intervention; unless they included some way for players to catch the other legendary(i.e., catch Palkia in the Diamond remake), Cyrus would only summon 1 of the legendaries; Giratina would have no need to intervene if only one was present.

[[WMG: Tying into the above WMG, Team Galactic will split into two factions in the post-game]]
The two factions will be lead by Cyrus and Charon, and both scenarios will be tackled - first, the player will deal with Charon's scenario involving Stark Mountain, and after that, some of the dialogue by one of the other characters (Either Looker or Charon) will lead the player to return to Team Galactic's headquarters, where they'll find a post-HeelFaceTurn Saturn opposing Cyrus[[note]]if the player speaks to Saturn after the events of Spear Pillar in Platinum, he'll say that he's learned that "extremism is never the answer", indicating he's had a change of heart[[/note]], and Cyrus will return to the Spear Pillar, and open a rift in dimensions, summoning Giratina.

Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire had established several differences from the original games, while TheStationsOfTheCanon is in effect for some, notable changes are to the charatcers ane motivations.

If Diamond and Pearl get remakes, then it would likely be similar, with only the EvilPlan and leaders changing. or perhaps the better terminology is ''not'' changing. TheReveal if that not only does Cyrus know of alternate dimensions, he knows becuase he himself is from one; the Dimension of Platinum. And the plot while still be along the Line sof OmnicidalManiac would either be multiversal destruction of remaking one universe from the comfort of the other. The aftermath would be one large CosmicRetcon

* To build on this, perhaps there would be a different Cyrus during most of the main story, but in a Delta Episode-like Giratina story, the original Cyrus would reappear to continue his plans, perhaps using the ultra beasts.



* It's a simple pattern. Note that there has been one Pokemon remake per Nintendo handheld. FR/LG on GBA, HG/SS on DS, and ORAS on 3DS. It stands to reason that the next handheld, whatever it may be, will house the Sinnoh remakes.

[[WMG: Arceus allowed itself to be captured.]]
Hey, it's the Pokemon's version of God after all. Capturing the Pokemon doesn't limit it in any manner, as it can just use its omnipotence to perform things outside of the Pokeball's limitations or omnipresence to go wherever it wants to. You're only able to catch it because [[GodIsGood Arceus is a nice guy]] and wants to give you a chance to fill your Pokedex. It only acts like an especially-strong Pokemon because it respects fair play among Pokemon(of course it's still super-powerful, to show off that it is God in the first place).

[[WMG: Arceus is the reason why Pokemon are "Pokemon".]]
Rather than being biologically related or evolving in the normal means from one another, Pokemon are Pokemon because they're literally in Arceus' image. Every single Pokemon follows the same mechanics because they were "shaped" that way, given an essence similar to itself and as such bound to the same rules. This is how non-animals, living inanimate objects and even beings like [[EldritchAbomination Giratina]] can somehow be the same type of creature; they're all shaped and designed by the same entity.

The reason why humans aren't Pokemon, despite [[EarlyInstallmentWeirdness nowadays]] being the only real life animal on the planet, is because they were created/crafted by something that ''isn't'' Arceus. The Alpha Pokemon had zero output on mankind's creation, making them different from everything else on the planet. It's quite possible that another legendary Pokemon chose to develop humanity solely on its own.

As for Mew, it serves as a sort of "extension" of Arceus, an avatar of its essence so as to freely create Pokemon without putting any effort in it.

The "gender" is whether it can by default incubate a fertilized egg cell or send it's egg cell to the other. During a crisis with none of the other "gender" around they can reproduce asexually, or with a massive amount of "males" they can switch to "female".

* Heatran is pretty well-equipped to survive deep inside the planet, now that I think about it. It's short, bulky, and has thick limbs, letting it survive and move around under intense pressure; it's partially made of metal, which melts only at very high temperatures; and with Flash Fire, it can both protect itself from intense heat damage and power itself up using heat energy. With so little organic matter existing deep underground, maybe Flash Fire absorption is how Heatran "feeds."

[[WMG: Diamond/Pearl remakes will mix the plot of those games with that of Platinum]]
* To be precise, the Distortion World and the Giratina plot will be added. Either the Diamond/Pearl version of the Spear Pillar incident will happen, with the player catching the version Legendary, and then it follows up with Giratina intervening straight after, or the Distortion World will be visited during a post-game scenerio that will be like the Delta Episode in ORAS.

[[WMG: Heatran is not a true legendary.]]
A vast colony of Heatran live and breed deep in the planet’s core. It’s considered legendary because they almost never come up to the surface. Those that do breach the surface are feared and heralded for the power they’ve built up living so deep underground. Heatran only breed in the intense heat and gravity of the planet’s core, which is why captive ones never breed despite having genders.
