The first big arc in the SM anime was the Aether Arc. (Gets too much hate.)
The second big arc is the Ultra Guardian. (Like S/M's post game in that our heroes capture Ultra Beasts.) and the Necrozma Arc. With the Light eater coming to a close.
The third big arc IS going to be Team Rainbow Rocket...
Nothing too major, just that one scene involving that Absol Lusamine has in the anime. As Gladion said, they were training partners and once Nihilego got yanked out, the two pokemon started making up.
That and Lunala is an Ultra Beast or related to them... a key character trait of Gladion is that he hates those things at average luck and at best... he tolerates them if a friend of his has one. He would NEVER want to catch one.
The scene in the preview looks as you said, it seemed more like Poipole is saying goodbye to Naganadel than it is to Ash.
In addition Lillie getting a z ring right now would be a bigger ass pull than the big finisher against Mother Beast Lusamine.
