All of the following answers are my carefully crafted yet humble opinions... jerks ;(

>New Alolan Forms
There's definitely a chance. I'd venture to say 50/50. It's an alternate reality, so it's very possible Johto Pokemon this time around get the Alola forms. New forms have been introduced mid generation before, such as Rotom's. The question is, if new forms are coming (besides legendaries), will they be released in weekly YouTube videos again? The clock certainly is ticking.
>New Characters
This has happened in every "third" version released, so I'd say 99% this happens.
>Different Storyline
For sure. The question is just how different will it be? Yellow was the same, but Yellow really is just Yellow. Nothing much to it. Crystal was a minor change with Suicune and Friends. Platinum and B/W2 were pretty big. With this trend, I'd say at least a very decent story change, especially with it being a different timeline and all, they could change characters and motives entirely. There also are a lot of loose ends from Sun/Moon, such as everything that has to do with Mohn.
>Exclusive Z-Moves for Gen 7 Starters
I don't even care about this... maybe?
>New Megas
Not happening.
>New Pokemon/New Evolutions
Doubt it.
>More forms
I could see them changing up the Ultra Beasts or Island Guardians, or even both. Maybe Necrozma interacts with all of them.
>More Customization
Definitely.
>More waifus
I bet previous waifus will be modified, but I'd say we're most likely not getting any more than 1 new good looking girl, if any... and I'm more partisan to there being no more introduced.

>>33087932
Some adjustments:
I actually could see a new event Pokemon for a movie being released... or something. Also I meant to say I don't care if the starters get NEW Z moves... I don't think OP new about the ones that already exist.

>>33087866
Someone explain to me why would there be new aloan forms. Wouldnt any info like that be in sumo's data? Or is ultra implying the xy to alpha/omega compatibility

>>33088023
they're just going to pull an ORAS and force people to buy the new games to use the new shit.

>>33088023
Why would anything new have to be in Sun/Moon's data. That's not required at all and would be an anomaly if it were that way. I think people see it as feasible since Johto's coming to VC and it's a new "timeline".

I don't understand your last question though.

>>33088023
>Wouldn't info like that be in SM's data
You mean like how things like Mega Gallade and Primal Groudon were totally in XY's data?

>>33087866
>New Alolan Forms
good chance there will be
>New Characters
absolutely
>Different Storyline
pretty much confirmed. We can only hope it's a good one
>Exclusive Z-Moves for Gen 7 Starters
they already exist, but we will very likely new exclusive Z-moves for other pokemon
>New Megas
I say very unlikely since Masuda/Ohmori have stated in interviews that they excluded megas in gen7 cause they deem Alola unsuitable for having the focus on megas. The focus is gonna remain on z-moves
> New Pokemon/New Evolutions
as much as we all wish for that, unless they break all patterns, no
>More forms
already confirmed there will be new forms, we just don't know if there confined to legends
>More Customization
already confirmed to have at least some differences to SM
>More Waifus
thats probably included in the new character part

>>33087866

>New Alolan Forms
Probably
>New Characters
Most likely
>Different Storyline
Yes
>Exclusive Z-Moves for Gen 7 Starters
Already happened
>New Megas
Probably not
>New Pokemon/New Evolutions
No
>More forms
Yes
>More Customization
Yes

What about the chances of these happening:
>New Postgame (Any Postgame)
>No more SOS
>Trials Gone
>New Move Tutor

>>33088970
>New Postgame (Any Postgame)
likely
>No more SOS
unlikely
>Trials Gone
no
>New Move Tutor
likely

>New Characters

>Different Storyline
Too early to tell but it'll probably be a little different
>Exclusive Z-Moves for Gen 7 Starters
Already have those, I don't see them getting more.
>New Megas
Fingers crossed, if there aren't any it basically confirms we will never get any more.
>New Pokemon/New Evolutions
0%
>More forms
We already know Mimikyu and Lycanroc are getting one because PGL was datamined.
>More Customization
Confirmed

Realistically we can expect
>the plot to be 85% the same except Necrozma is hamfisted somehow
>a big ol' fuckin' legendary hunt split across both versions because they're required to do so each generation thanks to the Generational Marking and is likely the true reason for USUM being two versions instead of one
>Move Tutor at the Battle Tree
>all of the remaining unobtainable Non-Legendary Pokemon in Gen 7 can be obtained in USUM somehow so you don't have to transfer and breed for the marking
>more Sepcies-exclusive Z-Moves, mainly for shillmons like Charizard and Lucario
>MAYBE more Alola Forms if they're feeling generous
