I think it'll likely be a reimagining of Kanto rather than a remake (Well I certainly hope it wouldn't just be a straight remake), another story based in Kanto, based on battling a resurgent Team Rocket 15-20 years after the events of G/S. I'd be all for it, so long as they expanded the Pokedex well beyond the original 150.

I'd like if they included Johto/Hoenn as well, but I can't see that happening. We'll never have more than one region in a game ever again, in fact the regions themselves are likely to get smaller and smaller under Masuda's leadership, he is the one who said that they withheld the Battle Frontier from ORAS because people "don't dedicate time to games anymore", he also criticised the decision to put so much content in HGSS... As long as he is in charge, anyone after a sprawling, deep Pokemon game is going to be disappointed.

Well, Alola grew in size in comparision to Kalos, so I dont see anything to worry about.

Yes, but Kalos was an extremely low bar to cross. S/M's story, Pokemon and characters were solid, but the region itself was smaller than it could have been, and much more gated than it needed to be. Then now, US/UM may have been handled by GF's "B-team", but they are nothing but copy-pastes of S/M with additional post-game content, the lack of effort put into them has completely drained my hope for the Switch game at this point (hopefully they'll have something to show off in the January/February direct that blows our minds).
