It's just like Emerald/Platinum, they make very little changes but they still make 2 games so that sales stay high...

It's not, they are updated versions, not direct sequels!

They called it an 'alternate story' in the direct, meaning it's a different plot.  That makes it a sequel.

An alternate story? Interesting.  But then I personally wouldn't call it a sequel but another origin.
