2026 is the 30th anniversary of the Pokémon series. They've always done new generations on the big anniversaries: Diamond/Pearl (gen4) for the 10th in 2006 (in Japan) and Sun/Moon (gen7) for the 20th in 2016. It would likewise be fitting to release the next generation in 2026 rather than this year.

I also believe we would have already seen a Z-A reveal trailer before the end of the 2024 if it was truly slated for a date as early as spring or early summer. Holding off on showing or saying absolutely anything since the teaser last February seemingly implies it's Game Freak's one big title for the year that'll be the main focus this time.
