I'm just going to address one thing but honestly I'm tired of this...
FRLG and HGSS replaced RBY and GSC. ORAS did not replace XY. The potential Z can replace XY.
Again, I'm really tired and feel like I'll endlessly repeat myself so...... whoever interested can re-read my posts or something cause I won't have much to add.
I'm not really trying to make anyone agree with me or something. We're different people and different opinions/views/desires, it's cool if you disagree with mine. Let's agree to disagree rather than endlessly argue about it and just look forward to the next game, whatever it will be.
True. I just doubt they thought too much about it beyond the basics "player can choose which version of the duo/trio happened, if the protagonist is boy/girl, which starter they picked and other Pokémon caught"
So they may have not outright considered RBY/GSC to be their own "universe" but they basically replaced them with FRLG/HGSS
so you're openly admitting here that FRLG and HGSS are retcons? so why can't ORAS make a minor retcon (re: only in Kalos)?

that's operating under the assumption that GameFreak intended for there to be a multiverse
I don't believe they intended on a "multiverse" prior to ORAS, but back then it was just like FRLG and HGSS rewrote and replaced RBY and GSC making them irrelevant.
While ORAS established the Megaverse split, Black and White already established that each game is its own continuity. The man who gives you the cell battery explicitly asks for a Pokemon that knows Charge from a universe where Opelucid was more/less developed.
