Because paradox forms aren't actually from the past/future. That's why they're called paradox forms.

Technically yes, they're from alternate universe, but not the kind of alternate universe where Pokemons looks just like their 'normal' universe counterpart like in S/M/US/UM, but rather timelines where Pokemons looks wildly different from the 'normal' universe.

No, Paradox Pokémon are species which "should not be", in a sense; and yet, they exist all the same. Furthermore, the stories surrounding them are complete bogus in-universe, and nothing about them makes any sense at all. That is why they are named Paradox Pokémon.
