Wouldn’t surprise me in the slightest.
In fact I’m expecting it.
The only thing I don’t know is, will it be a slightly altered revision like a Switch Lite/XL with extra battery or a Switch+ (PS4 Pro/XB1X type of enhanced hardware).

Either way, that plus Pokemon Gen 8 would make a damn good bundle for Holiday 2019.

I think Switch lite would make more sense next year than a more powerful/bigger Switch. Pokemon is such a portable-centric franchise that I think Nintendo is going to want for Switch to hit it's portable stride even more than it already has. It would definitely boost sales in Japan even beyond how good they already are.

This is true. Plus, there's also Animal Crossing. That's Nintendo's' two biggest system sellers in Japan coming out next year. Those two games plus a Switch Lite with a lower price tag would light the country on fire.
