Predictions for Pokémon's 30TH Anniversary presents which is probably coming up
I predict:
Gen 10 Reveal, Za Updates or online tournament information, Za home compatibility, Mobile games stuff, Pokopia information, new spinoff or spinoff information, Pokémon champions information.
Stuff I want but probably won't happen:
Pokémon on NSO, New Pokémon rumble, New Pokémon mystery dungeon, New Poke-park, New Pokémon quest.
and probably more stuff I'm forgetting at the moment

I predict gen 10 announced for November 2026, Z-A events and a Mystery Gift, Z-A HOME connectivity approximate date announced (I got SV on release, they took 6 months to let us use Pokémon HOME with it, there is absolutely no way they're going to manage adding HOME connectivity by this month), big mobile game events (there's no way they're passing up the 30th anniversary of the franchise with normal events), Champions release date and info, 2~ new spinoffs announced (likely mobile games, and possibly one is dropped right after the presents like what happened last time), some big TCG event/s, something about Horizons or something about Horizon's ending coming soon (I don't know where the anime is currently at but this is a guess based on the fact that gen 10 is likely coming soon), a big event related to the first few games or original 151 Pokémon, and possibly a hint at the next Legends game. I'd really love a new Mystery Dungeon or literally any console spinoff, but I doubt we're getting one soon.

Also, another prediction, gen 10 will be open world. Most of the fans will be unhappy about it. It will sell less than SV because it's definitely going to be Switch 2 exclusive and more people have Switches than Switch 2s, but it will be one of the best selling games on the console despite many of the fans not liking it (they're going to buy it anyways).

Also, it's probably going to look ugly just like SV and Z-A are, though I guess that's subjective.

I got used to the bad Pokémon art style, so I kinda like it more than the good Pokémon art syles

I don't care about the 2D balconies. I think the colours and textures are what look awful, they need to go back to the more stylised look from SwSh and PLA because trying to poorly mimic realism because it's trendy and looks more modern while trying to stick with the signature stylised (cartoony) look of the franchise does not work well. It's like how mixing all the colours you have together gives vomit green and not rainbow. And also, realism doesn't suit the franchise in the first place, it makes it look less joyful and fun (and a lack of joy and fun is not the vibe you want for a children's franchise, or anything that isn't supposed to be gritty and dark).

How is Z-A still not compatible with Home

As I said, it's subjective. I think SV looked better than Z-A, though Paldea itself was (and Kitakami also was) horribly designed (it was horrible, but their new design for Lumiose… is better, there's no way to get beaten by Paldea in terms of region design, but I'd like Z-A more if the grey of the buildings and floor wasn't the only colour you see for the majority of the game). And there's just something that makes the character models look less uncanny in SV. I unfortunately can't pinpoint exactly what it is, but my guess is that I just dislike the weird blend of realism and stylisation. Again, that's my subjective opinion.
