I've always assumed they were sequels to Sun and Moon, but then I saw the trailer where the player character for US/UM is in Aether Paradise, with Hau, and Lusamine, when Nihiliego first appears... Almost exactly like it happened in Sun/Moon. Which then leads my mind to other things. Hau and Lillie are both in the game, and don't seem to have aged (while being of the age where even just a few years will be noticeable because they're not adults yet); plus Lusamine and Lillie went to Kanto after S/M's storyline. It's definitely possible they could have come back, I know...
It's just that, Nihiliego reappearing in almost the exact same scene, and with Hau and Lillie seemingly the same as in S/M, are noteworthy when considering the games' storyline revolve around wormholes. To alternate dimensions. Plus the recent news that the storyline for US/UM revolves around people FROM another dimension! So this all makes me think it's possible that US/UM (which also don't have #2 or any other sequel-y numerical identifier) are actually set in a parallel dimension/timeline.
So, Has it been explicitly stated that US/UM are actual sequels to S/M that take place later? The announcements I've seen state that the games will feature an alternate storyline to S/M. A sequel would be an alternate storyline, from the point of view of consumers worried the games would be the same storyline, but "alternate storyline" is a broad statement that could include sequels, prequels... or a literal alternate storyline.
Because I'd like to know for sure.
