I really wouldn't take it for granted that there will be a "proper" Generation VII movie. That formula didn't work so well in the last generation.Well Movie 20 was just revealed, looks like gen 7 is gonna stick around til 2019. Ash Pikachu for the event this year, and 2018 with Marshadow as the gen 7 movie proper.
I'd sooner bet on the 2018 movie featuring Mew, still being set in Kanto as part of the reboot. Marshadow could just get an anime arc; its QR code could be revealed in any number of ways.
There was never much of a chance of Generation VIII being released in 2018. The question is if it will happen in 2019 or 2020; the latter could easily happen if Game Freak have a big Switch release (not Stars) planned for 2018 as part of the current generation.
