Not buying it.
Anything Pokemon related would get its own Direct, especially this close to release and Smash DLC and Animal Crossing are not enough content to justify a Direct. I know they may fill in the rest of the time with new announcements and reveals for 2020 and beyond. But, right in the middle of the holiday season? When they'll want all of their attention on Sword/Shield? I doubt it.
At best, I think we'll get the usual big reveal at the Game Awards, where we'll get the 5th DLC released after the show, along with the reveal of the 1st fighter of DLC Pack 2. Then, the next Direct will be in January.
