For Gen 9's third legendary

Looking the legendary duos, trios and quartets:
  1. Gen I: Ice/Electric/Fire, Psychic
  2. Gen II: Fire/Electric/Water, Fire/Psychic
  3. Gen III: Rock/Ice/Steel, Ground/Water/Flying
  4. Gen IV: Dark/Psychic, Steel/Water/Ghost, 
  5. Gen V: Flying/Electric/Ground, Rock/Grass/Steel/Water, Electric/Fire/Ice
  6. Gen VI: Dark/Fairy/Ground
  7. Gen VII: Electric/Grass/Psychic/Water, Steel/Ghost/Dragon
  8. Gen VIII: Fairy/Fighting/Poison
Using the current corresponding TCG types:
  1. Gen I: Water/Electric/Fire, Psychic
  2. Gen II: Fire/Electric/WaterFire/Psychic
  3. Gen III: Fighting/Water/Steel, Fighting/Water/Normal
  4. Gen IV: Dark/Psychic, Psychic, Steel/Water/Psychic
  5. Gen V: Normal/Electric/Fighting, Fighting/Grass/Steel/Water, Electric/Fire/Water
  6. Gen VI: Dark/Fairy/Fighting
  7. Gen VII: Electric/Grass/Psychic/Water, Steel/Psychic/Dragon
  8. Gen VIII: Fairy/Fighting/Dark
Shared types:
  1. Gen I: Flying
  2. Gen II: Flying
  3. Gen III: N/A (Fire*/None/Dragon)
  4. Gen IV: Psychic, Dragon
  5. Gen V: Flying, Fighting, Dragon
  6. Gen VI: N/A(Flying/None/Dragon)
  7. Gen VII: Fairy, Psychic
  8. Gen VIII: N/A?(Steel**/Steel**/Dragon)
*Primal Reversion only.
**Alternate form only.

Looking at this chart, it seems next generation's third legendary will be Fairy/Dragon or will belong to one of the elemental types besides Water. We are also ignoring the possibility of a mono Dragon outside of another type change gimmick.
**It cannot be Rock or Fighting since Zygarde covers both in TCG.
**It cannot be Dark since Eternatus covers it in TCG as Poison is changed to Darkness in TCG this gen.
**It cannot be Normal since Rayquaza covers it in TCG.
**It cannot be Water since Kyurem covers it in TCG.
**It cannot be Psychic, since both Giratina and Ultra Necrozma cover it in TCG.
**It can be Electric, Fire or Steel, but those are done for non-third legendary mascot legendaries.
**It can be Grass, I just don't expect it because of obvious reasons(even though Grass/Dragon would make sense in a Chinese region).

What happens after that is ambiguous. Since next generation will likely bring one of the existing types to TCG like what happened to Dragon in Gen V, and the next third legendary in Gen 10 will depend on that. If it is Ghost or Bug, then we will likely move onto to regular Dark and Fighting, as those are covered by existing Dragon pseudos(similar to what happened to Zygarde). If it is Flying, Ice or Rock/Ground, then the remainder type (Normal/Water/Fighting) will likely be the candidate.

Edit (10.10.2020):
https://www.pokebeach.com/2020/01/nine-surprising-changes-announced-for-the-ptcg-fairy-pokemon-dropped
Fairy-type is now integrated into Psychic-type and ceases to be its own thing.
Edit (12.01.2020): Since Fairy-type is now integrated into Psychic-type, the updated chart looks like this:
Using the current corresponding TCG types:

  1. Gen I: Water/Electric/Fire, Psychic
  2. Gen II: Fire/Electric/WaterFire/Psychic
  3. Gen III: Fighting/Water/Steel, Fighting/Water/Normal
  4. Gen IV: Dark/Psychic, Psychic, Steel/Water/Psychic,
  5. Gen V: Normal/Electric/Fighting, Fighting/Grass/Steel/Water, Electric/Fire/Water
  6. Gen VI: Dark/Psychic/Fighting
  7. Gen VII: Electric/Grass/Psychic/Water, Steel/Psychic/Dragon
  8. Gen VIII: Psychic/Fighting/Dark
Looking at this new chart, we can say that Fairy/Dragon is not happening. Instead, Grass/Dragon, Steel/Dragon or Electric/Dragon is now likely. If it is Grass, then the rest will likely be Electric and Water since we have Fire and Water(ORAS) and Electric and Fire(BW). If it is Steel, then the rest will be according to Regis' types. If it is Electric, rest can be Flying and Ground, similar to Kamis.

So... let's discuss about Switch Lite and what it means for Gen IX

This is a belated sequel to this post.

**First and foremost, datamine showcases 2 open slots for possible Mythicals, meaning we see Gen 8 continue at least for 2021.
**Secondly, Nintendo themselves have stated that they want to prolong the Switch's life to more than 6 years. We don't know what this means, but it likely means no successor until 2023, which is to be expected.

Now that is over let's look at the handheld release schedule (JAPAN ONLY, no Virtual Boy):

  1. Game Boy: 1989
  2. Game Boy Color: 1998
  3. Game Boy Advance: 2001 
  4. Nintendo DS: 2004
  5. Nintendo 3DS: 2011
  6. Switch: 2017 (Switch Lite: 2019)
Looking at this, 6 years seems to be lower-end expectation.

For hardware revisions (3DS only):
  1. Base 3DS: 2011
  2. 3DS XL: 2012
  3. 2DS (Western): 2013
  4. NN3DS/XL (Japan & Australia): 2014
  5. NN3DS/XL(Western): 2015
  6. 2DS (Japan): 2016
  7. N2DSXL: 2017
All years 3DS was active on there were a release of sorts with Japan getting a new release roughly 2 years.

So,

2017: Switch
2019: Switch Lite
2021: Switch New?
2023: Switch New Lite?

Since there will a new Pokémon game each year, 2021 would coincide with Crystal Let's GO remakes, and 2023 would coincide with Gen 9's second game and presumably the Switch's successor.

In terms of specs, Switch fails to deliver TFLOP values, being stuck around 393 GFLOPs, this is largely due to weaker GPU. Using this as value, next Switch should be double the power of the current Switch both docked and undocked, unless NVIDIA shifts to TSMC's 7nm+*. This means it will be half the power of the original Xbone(in terms of FLOPS, in terms of CPU it will be superior). Nonetheless, both processing speed and RAM should double in the next mid-gen update for Switch, and still increase for the true Switch successor.

*Though it should be noted that Orin, the latest Tegra chip for self-driving cards is expected to be in 7nm process. Nonetheless, it won't be in the Switch's update, possibly its successor might have it though.

Edit: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tegra Both the current Switch revision and Switch Lite use the new 16nm Tegra X1, which can do about 600 Gflops at max, which is higher than regular Switch's 400 flops. But since Switch's RAM is half of the max ram of Tegra 214 (4 GB instead of 8) the actual performance is probably around 468 GFLOPs.

Edit(07.01.2020): According to DigiTimes, Nintendo is seeking to release a new variant of Switch in the middle of 2020, with the production starting in the end of first quarter of 2020. Since these quarters are according to Japanese Fiscal Year, this would mean production will begin around June with the release being in September/October/November, which will be consistent with DSi (November 2008 in Japan) and NN3DS (October 2014 in Japan).

This would also mean Switch's successor would release before April 2023, before the start of the new fiscal year, to be consistent with 3DS (February 2011) and Switch (March 2017).

Switch Pro Lite would then release in late 2021 if there is a Let's GO Crystal game, and late 2022 if 2021 is a gap year for Pokémon.

It is unlikely that there will be more iterations for Switch Pro besides slim ones, unless Switch Pro is dock only, in which case we would have the portable version in 2021 and Lite version in 2022.

Edit (01.02.2020):
http://www.vgchartz.com/article/442267/nintendo-we-have-no-plans-to-launch-a-new-nintendo-switch-model-during-2020/
http://www.vgchartz.com/article/442271/nintendo-plans-to-continue-to-support-their-games-with-dlc/

Nintendo confirmed that they do not intend to release a Switch SKU in 2020, which means we are NOT getting a Switch Pro or a new SKU like a magnesium-alloy case in not just calendar 2020, but also fiscal 2020 (April 2020-March 2021).

This means the rumored Switch version will be released in November 2021, unless Nintendo decides to release a new Switch successor in November 2021-March 2022 timeframe, which is perfectly plausible as Switch was released in the tail-end of the fiscal 2016 (March 2017).

This would also follow more closely in the line of DSi, even though 3DS was technically released in fiscal 2010(February 2011).

Edit (07.07.2021):
https://www.vgchartz.com/article/449636/nintendo-switch-oled-model-announced-launches-october-8-for-34999/
Instead of a Pro version, Nintendo announced an OLED version of Switch with slight enhancements for October 8th 2021.

We will likely get a Lite version in the coming years, but this probably means Nintendo does not intend Switch to remain relevant for long, but Coronavirus might artificially extend its lifespan regardless, just like 2007-2009 crash expanded the lifespans of PS3 and Xbox 360.

                                                    Short-term notes on new Pokémon for Sword and Shield, June 5, 2019

                                                    Wooloo:
                                                    *Wooloo's name, typing, abilities, and height/weight strongly implies it will have another evolution, which will likely give it a new type.
                                                    *Since its description notes it rolling away, it will likely get Rollout and Defense Curl like Skiddo.
                                                    *Basically it is just another Skiddo.
                                                    *It shares the same weight as Pikachu, Magnemite, Sentret, Smoochum, Helioptile and Yungoos.
                                                    *Its Fluffy means weakness to Fire, which might imply it will get either an unrelated type, or Grass.
                                                    *Its Egg Group will likely be Field.

                                                    Gossifleur-Eldegoss:
                                                    *Their names comes from a cotton genus.
                                                    *Gossifleur's name is obviously French, because this is Kalos 2.0
                                                    *Their signature ability Cotton Down implies we will get more Cotton Pokémon in the future generations. Great/sarcasm]
                                                    *Eldegoss' weight is the same as Exeggcute, Torchic, Sewaddle and Scatterbug, strongly implying it is not the final form.
                                                    *However, its height is the same as Cherrim, so there is a low chance it might be.
                                                    *One of its Max attacks uses mushrooms from Spore, which implies Powder moves will gain perfect accuracy when Dynamaxed.
                                                    *Both Cottonee and Hoppip-lines are maxed out in terms of Abilities, so Swirlix, Mareep, Swablu and Furfrou are the only likely Cotton Down obtainers, which is to say it will likely remain as a signature Ability for Gossifleur-line since none of these guys are Grass-type.

                                                    Dreadnaw:
                                                    *It shares the same height as Kecleon, Nosepass and Basculin and its weight is similar to Rhyhorn, so it is more than likely a single stager.
                                                    *Its ability implies it will learn Ice Fang, Crunch, Bite and possibly Poison Fang.
                                                    *Its Egg Groups will likely be Water 1 and Monster.
                                                    *Not much to say here really. It is an angry snapping turtle. At least it is primary Water instead of primary Rock.

                                                    Corviknight:
                                                    *Despite its design, it is actually Flying/Steel, inverse typing of Skarmory's Steel/Flying.
                                                    *Its size is the same as Mega Pidgeot, and its weight is the same as Crobat and Quagsire.
                                                    *He's a big guy.
                                                    *He is seen using Brave Bird or a similar move to Sawk, so he will likely be physically offensive compared to Skarmory and Celesteela.

                                                    Zacian and Zamazenta:
                                                    *Zacian is holding a sword, while Zamazenta is a shield.
                                                    *Zacian looks more sleek-looking, while Zamazenta is more bulky, so the difference will likely be on Speed.
                                                    *Their names refer to Saltire(Blue+White, or possibly Scottish blue+Irish green) and Union Jack(blue+red)
                                                    *Zamazenta has the samurai ponytail.
                                                    *Their designs are more based off Romus and Remulus than anything British, alluding to Roman rule in Britain.
                                                    *Their wings are likely a reference to various guardian canines in Asian mythologies like shiba inu and various shvan in Hindu mythology, but their design is most likely based on the Enfield beast, one of the heraldic beasts of England, though it actually originates from Ireland.
                                                    *Their Asian designs are a reference to the fact that Leon, our lovely Galarian Champion, is Indian.

                                                    • Ice and Dragon are less likely to keep their averages. Rock and Dark will likely drop out further.

                                                                Random thoughts on Pokémon Sword and Shield

                                                                New type busted:
                                                                The most important thing here is that the possibility of a new elemental type has been mostly denied. This means this generation will go through the remaining type combinations as usual, meaning all possible type combinations will end next generation after SwSh (Gen 9).

                                                                A seemingly expansive regional dex:
                                                                While the actual region seems muted, we will likely have a dense regional dex. It is unclear if it will be larger than Kalos, because the area covered is much smaller, but it will be larger than Alola at least. Currently there are already 30 confirmed species for the regional dex that are coming from older generations.

                                                                No major gimmick change:
                                                                While it is too early to say, the titles do not focus on a new gimmick outside of the Japanese titles, but rather the legendaries. This does not mean there won't be new gimmick(which is unlikely), but it does mean it won't be important like Megas and Z-moves.

                                                                The general consensus seems to be that new gimmick will be audience stat boosts in Gyms and Wi-Fi battles, like contests. But we will have a cross-generational form mechanic as well, and we don't know what that will be.

                                                                A limited introduction:
                                                                The first teaser has not showcased the legendaries, which is rather different from XY and SM. This confirms this region will include a smaller number of Pokémon than XY, though how small remains to be seen. Because there will be more new Pokémon in DPPt remakes and Let's GO Crystal remakes than US/UM and LGP/E, this count might end up larger than XY at the very end of the generation, but not in these games.

                                                                A colder region:
                                                                Well, it is Britain(actually, just England with some Scottish areas sprinkled to apocryphal areas). But more importantly it is a less densely populated region, which is inaccurate for England(one of the most densely populated areas of the world). This is likely so there can be more varied Ice-types here, after the long duration of limited Ice-types.

                                                                Gyms:
                                                                So far, we only have a confirmed Grass Gym. Fire/Steel, Electric, Poison/Fairy, Water, Ice, Dragon, Ground/Rock are assumed. Ground seems more likely than Rock, and Fire is more likely than Steel because it seems to be the third Gym.
                                                                Overall the structure seems to be like this, give or take:
                                                                1. Grass
                                                                2. Water
                                                                3. Fire
                                                                4. Electric
                                                                5. Ground
                                                                6. Fairy
                                                                7. Dragon
                                                                8. Ice
                                                                ehh.

                                                                Other guesses:
                                                                1. My expectation for 65 species still remain, and I still expect around 400-500 Pokémon in the regional dex.
                                                                2. Because the new gimmick seems to be not Ability based, we will probably see more unique Abilities yet again.
                                                                3. My guess for Elite Four is Bug/Flying/Poison/Normal with a Steel champion again.
                                                                4. New Eeveelution/s will be either Dragon and Steel or just Steel.
                                                                5. There probably won't be a lot of side-evos or pre-evos, if any. New form mechanic is still unknown.
                                                                6. Titles suggest the legendaries will be remarkably similar to each other, just differing in stat distribution substantially. Lots of people have mentioned that the titles probably refer to Excalibur/Caliburn and King Arthur's shield, Pridwen/Wynebgwrthucher, but sounds too much like RagnaLordmon's bases.

                                                                Rough guesses for each type looking at the map:
                                                                1. *Bug: Bug is going to a field day with this. Though even generations tend to introduce a low amount of Bug-types, Britain has tons of different insects. Even if we don't get a ton of new Pokémon, we will see return of a few with new tricks(we already know Grubbin is here, for example).
                                                                2. *Dark: Even though Britain's lore allows for many Dark-types, I don't think we will see much tbh. Probably a Dark E4, but we already have Hydreigon here, so not a lot of Pokémon can surpass it.
                                                                3. *Dragon: Obviously we are going to see a few Dragons here, but if we don't see Dragon/Bug here it would be such a waste.
                                                                4. *Electric: Industrial theme gives me some hope for more Electric-types, but past examples show such optimism to be fallacious. 
                                                                5. *Fairy: Oh yeah, Celtic themes pretty much confirm tons of Fairies, new and old.
                                                                6. *Fighting: Yeah... no. Yes, Britain has a long history with combat sports, but the regional map does not show much reason for optimism. If we got more cities then I would consider it, but as things stand, no.
                                                                7. *Fire: Same as Electric. I don't know if we can be more hopeful because of the steampunk theme, especially since this region seems to be a Cold Region™ like Sinnoh.
                                                                8. *Flying: I have no idea? We already have Fletchling, Rufflet and Hoothoot for the regional dex. Unless hey make something interesting I don't really care.
                                                                9. *Ghost: Same as Dark-types. I think people might feel spoiled after Alola, but they really shouldn't.
                                                                10. *Grass: Yeah, there will be a lot of these.
                                                                11. *Ground: We already have the Diglett mural so we might see a bunch of new Ground-types after two very limited generations.
                                                                12. *Ice: Post-game defensive Ice-types seem to be confirmed yet again. I wish we could get early route Ice-types but GF seems committed to this metaphorical horse.
                                                                13. *Normal: Industrial theme makes me interested in the possibilities. Overall pastal regions also suggest a similar thing to Kalos, ie. generic early route Pokémon will have Normal subtyping to fill the dex.
                                                                14. *Poison: Oh yeah, we are going to see a lot of these. I mean, the region is literally called disease. Britain has a lot of amphibians, poisonous plants and industrial garbage.
                                                                15. *Psychic: There doesn't seem to be a designated biome for Psychics besides walled ruins so eh...
                                                                16. *Rock: Same as Ground, but we also have tons of caves here, so we will likely see a few fossils as well.
                                                                17. *Steel: Probably the biggest thing here, we are going to see a lot of these guys here. They are popular, and they are relevant to the region.
                                                                18. *Water: Sure, this region does not have water routes, but it is still surrounded by water and ports... so....7.8/10
