Not really sure how to start this, but this will be a little long.

Alright, first things first: from the information I've seen, there are at least four separate major timelines. These are Classic, Modern, and the two Mega timelines.

The Classic timeline is just the first two generations.
The Modern timeline is Generation III through V.
The Mega timelines are, individually, XY and ORAS. I separate these as XY takes place at the same time as B2W2, while ORAS likely takes place at the same times as RSE, despite having similar, if not increased, knowledge on Mega Evolution.

Now, the first four generations are well-defined in terms of chronology - Generations I and III take place at the same time, and II and IV take place two years later. Gen V is where it gets fuzzy and less well-defined. No time frame between BW and DPPt is given, although there is known to be one, as I recall Team Plasma mentioning Team Galactic, although as I can't find a quote online for this, I'll need to replay BW and B2W2 to confirm this. Besides this, the games also have the Team Rocket member who didn't know it got disbanded again in GSCHGSS, whose text confirms that BW and B2W2 take place after those games.

While I will need to dig more to place Gen V (and, by proxy, XY) in the timeline, I can fit Pokemon Sun and Moon in, in respect to Gen IV, using Red and Blue. I'll be using Blue, even though it doesn't matter much. In the FRLG artwork, Blue looks around 15 (in contrast to his RB artwork, where he looks around 10). He looks about 17 in his HGSS artwork, which is appropriate as it takes place two years later. In his SUMO artwork, he looks like he's in his early to mid 20s, giving a time gap from HGSS to SUMO of between 3 and 8 years.

This took a long time to write

tl;dr:

four separate timelines

Generation I, III, and ORAS take place at the same time and II and IV are two years later
no clue where V fits, but B2W2 is two years after BW
XY takes place at the same time as B2W2
Pokemon Sun and Moon is between 3 and 8 years after HGSS

so the mega timeline is something along the lines of

I+III/ORAS → II+IV → BW → BW2 → VI → SuMo

i've noticed that they're a few years apart by looking at Red's age in various games on the Bulbapedia.
