Of course they're talented enough to make the game. 

I think Pokemon would be surprising, even though it's been speculated to high hell it would be pretty earlier in the Switch's life. I do think we'll get a total surprise, but it will be a new IP.

Yeah, Pokemon's debut on each respective console has always been 2 to 2 and a half years after the system launch. So by that gauge, it would seem Pokemon  would be most likely for a Holiday 2019 release. The only thing that makes me think it could happen this holiday is Nintendo's crazy sales expectations for this year. It seems like a goal they would only set if they knew they had their biggest gun hitting, which is certainly Pokemon. 

Anyways, I definitely want Retro's game to be a new IP. Would be awesome to see them take a stab at a western RPG. Either that or a more realistic shooter. 

Well, i think 20m is easily achievable without pokemon, depending if LABO becomes massive or depending what else is announced. I can see Nintendo holding Pokemon in reserve, only bringing it out in March (Late fiscal year) if they are struggling to  meet the target. For Nintendo to release pokemon, they need to make sure they have the supply first. Lots of it!
