I'm thinking they'll have more this time because they've got all the models in 3D already
Part of the lack of new Pokemon in gen 6 was due to the copious amounts of effort and time they likely took modeling every single Pokemon in 3D as well as monamie
Now that that huge task is done I think they've had sufficient time to create much more new Pokemon for a new gen
I'm guessing not as much as gen 5 but maybe at least 100
