Alright, here's my two cents.
>Gamefreak will only reach Gen 9/10
>They'll realize that they don't have the passion for making the mainline games anymore
>They make a deal with Nintendo to sell the rights to the franchise outright to them in exchange for a gorillion dollars and a percentage of the revenue
>Nintendo will reboot the franchise altogether. Maybe they'll redesign the pokemon, but chances are they'll just release new games with only a handful of pokemon from across the regions.
>People begin to lose interest in the mainline games, and Pokemon eventually gets the Megaman treatment. Maybe a new game after a decade of nothing and the occasional cameo/spinoff game, but more or less abandoned
