Exactly. This doesn't appear to something akin to the PWT but is more like the Delta episode. Also Giovanni may not be the Giovanni from the first games but that doesn't mean this game isn't canon. Considering how future games like BW talked about Platinum instead of Diamond and Pearl, it is very likely that upcoming games will refer to USUM. So it is canon.I Ultra Don’t Think that the Rainbow Rocket stuff will be non-canonical. If it is what I think it is, then it will probably be a post-game episode like the Looker Bureau, Delta Episode, and UB Hunt (none of which are disputed canon*). It would seem like a waste for Rocket’s return to just be an inconsequential nostalgic runaround; they’ve never brought back an evil team in this manner before so it’s a fairly big step for them and it has some potential, even if that potential manifests as over-the-top craziness.
* I actually don’t think “canon” is a word that’s ever even been used within GF’s offices, but you know what I mean.
Anyway, time for me to lie down and slingshot my consciousness forward to trailer time.
