2020 will release the first new mythical with its Gigantamax form and 2021 will celebrate the 25th anniversary of the franchise with remakes of Diamond and Pearl (the games released for the 10th anniversary back then) and the other mythical and its Gigantamax (both mythicals have been confirmed by Gigantamax data in the datamining).
