I don't understand what's up with the Pokemon on the right with the 1B-1F thing. Can someone explain what I'm supposed to be getting from that?

Back when Pokebank came out, someone realized when you edited the hexidecimal data of Pokemon in Gen 5, they'd still be accepted through the transfer and into Gen 6. If you edited the region caught value to a higher number, the the one that are used to make being caught in X or Y, then Pokebank would accept it AND say that it had been caught in XY. That means it had the blue pentagon marker.
Realizing this, that anon continued upping the value and importing mons to see how many values the XY games were set to recognize as Gen 6. As it turns out, there were 6. 2 for X and Y, then 2 more that were used for OR and AS. That left 2 more unused game values. The image is meant to imply that, because there are two more values that XY and ORAS can recognize as Gen 6 games (that is, that Pokemon from them will have the Pentagon and be usable in the things that require a pentagon), there must be two more gen 6 games coming.
The problem with that is, that it means there's two more possible games the current games can accept as Gen 6, but it doesn't really ensure it. It is entirely possible there will be no more Gen 6 games, and the next two values will be used for a Gen 7 game. The games could be made incompatible for trading and battling, and the Pokebank could be updated to prevent Pokemon originating in Gen 7 from being deposited into a Gen 6 game, making the fact that Gen 6 games would recognize their game origin number as Gen 6 a non-issue.
It's circumstantial evidence at best.

I think what will really happen is we won't have gens anymore. Notice how ORAS weren't battle compatible? That's what I'm expecting. Rather than actually separating the games into gens, each entry will just be it's own thing.
