4 sum reason, Jynx and Banette do not get evolutions in 4th gen. They should've because Jynx was part of the trio (Magmar, Electabuzz and Jynx) which got evolutions.
no

They are not a trio, if anything it's counterpart is Mr. Mime.
Both are psychic, originally available through in-game trades, one's a girl, one's more masculine
Hardly. In fact, the Cynthia quote Superlugia3 so kindly posted seems to imply Arceus and the other 'deities' are just scary powerful Pokemon that ancient people thought were gods.

Sort of like when the Spainards came over, the..Mayan's, I believe thought they were gods (Quetzalquatol in particular)

Colder climate
Simple!
Yet there's no snow in nearby places, and Twinleaf Town is far away from Snowpoint. I think they were gonna add snow for all of West Sinnoh, but then after they finished adding snow for Twinleaf-Sandgem, they just said, "Screw this, nobody cares".

well the earth has the southern part and he northern part(north & south pole) has a crap load of snow. i would assume its based off of that
 
The 'Solaceon Strip' has more steps on it then the trip from Twinleaf to Oreburgh.

Just to disprove some things about Jynx.

Jynx is considerd counterparts with Electabuzz and Magmar for they are both together number wise, have the elemetns of Ice, Thuder, Fire like the birds, all three got pre-evos in the second gen. Jynx is more related to them then Mr. Mime.

Jynx does have a vowel, and its Y as it is somtimes considerd a vowel as when none others are present the Y will take a vowel form as in the case with My

Regarding Blaze/Torrent/Overgrow/swarm.
Aside from having a 1.5 boost to your fire/water/grass/bug attacks when your hp is below 33%, the attacks' power is doubled when your HP is lower than 25% in PMD.
