SM will likely be 3 years with Gen 8 starting in 4th quarter 2019.
Movie 1 covers all the SM event mons.
Movie 2 covers Solgaeo/Lunala
Movie 3 covers Solgaleo/Lunala and Necrozoma
Interesting to note, that if we get no breaks for SM up until the release of USM it'll be exactly episode 52 of SM on that date.
If by episode 52 Ash has conquered Olivia I'd say things are looking good pacing wise.
2 - 3 Kahunas defeated in the first 2 years and the 3rd year is the wrap up of SM similar to XYZ. The 3rd year would be about the final Kahuna, Aether, Skull, UB's, and Ashs graduation/final tournament should there be one.
I'm actually really happy that we're getting SM continuations rather then DP remakes, I'd rather have full focus on Alola rather then randomly injected Gen 4 shilling.
I am really curious though since we aren't getting Sinnoh, why is Lucario and Piplup in Movie 20? Cross and Inciniroar make sense because of Alola, but those two mons are really strange given what we've learned today.
