So I'm probably buying switch, but idk how Nintendo usually solves new console relases. Will i be able to play games from Wii U on it, or will it only be able to run switch games?

The Wii was able to run GCN games, and the WiiU was able to run Wii games, so if they follow suit the Switch should be able to run WiiU games.

But there is some doubt because of the talk of Wii U ports coming to the Switch, which would serve no purpose if it is already backwards compatible.

I wanted to play Pokken too, but there were so little pokemon on it, have they added more? And what's the Switch roughly gonna cost?

Nintendo already stated only switch games will be played for the simple reason that switch games are cartridges, so no disc reader.

Maybe some kind of reader will come separatly but I doubt it.

They are most likely going to remaster it

The Switch has no disc port, so no, it won't be able to play Wii U games, at least physical. Digital is incredibly unlikely as it's almost definitely using a different architecture.

You realise you could have just played it on the gamepad right?

But i still didn't want to buy wii u for one game only. Switch will most likely have some future pokemon games on it, so I'll be buying it once they come out.

Not OP but how long before Switch games can be pirated? I can probably cough up money for the console but can't afford to buy games.
