Not necessarily. Twilight princess for GC could also be played through Wii's BC but it didn't stopped them to release both versions. They are not going to spill the other platform that is not announced yet

I agree.
There's nothing wrong with releasing for both platforms. I'm just saying that their wording, missing the holiday, and announcing 2025 makes it seem like it will arrive on the Switch and the successor at the same time. 

Of course they wont tell us about the new console. That isn't The Pokémon Company's job, that's Nintendo's job. I figure that they'll start to give info (patents, leaks, name, specs) throughout this year and announce it near October 2024 to release it in March 2025.

What I am trying to say is that I find very unlikely they slipped something about Switch's successor on that announcement.

Yes, there's strong indications by the time they release the game could coincide with the next console, so the chances of being cross gen are very high.

But there's nothing in the wording of that announcement that give away some hint about that system. The "Switch(s)" could be very much referring to all Switch models and "Releasing worldwide simultaneously" is definitely about making the game available for every region at the same moment.

Now I am confused by what you mean by B/C release? It really got me thinking that is something about the game only being available to the next console by Backwards Compatibility.
