Think we will get Pokemon on this thing after Sun and Moon?

No. Pokemon is what sells the 3DS. I'm totally convinced we will never get a main series Pokemon game on a Nintendo home console. Plus the community with Pokemon is shattered by it not being handheld.

It's the reason why Smash on the 3DS was a bad idea. People played it for 2 months until the Wii-U version came out and never picked it up again. The whole game was limited by it being handheld, and Wii-U had far more features.

As Pokemon Go has shown, the power of Pokemon is it being mobile and on the go. Sure they'll probably make another Pokemon Stadium game where you can get the Pokemon you capture on the 3DS and battle them online, but that's about as far as I can see them taking it on the home console.
