It saddens me, but I have a feeling Sun/Moon will be the complete opposite of what /vp/ wants.
I think that no more Pokemon would be available besides box legendaries. The strategy of making new Pokemon were to distance themselves from the first generations and give regions a new feel. Now that people is in full Gen 1 cocksucking mode, they don't need to give anything a new feel; just giving people what they want: A third Kanto. (Second was Kalos if it wasn't obvious enough)
Making this gen starters the Kanto starters will attract many more people than making 3 more starters debutting these games. Plus, they have to keep these games presentable for their debut in the Chinese market. Expect these games to advertise Pikachu much more than before, and the game design would be leaning more into Smartphone-like minigames than a real effort to integrate fresh features into the core mechanics.
Even so, they will be praised as the second coming of Christ, like always.
