Game - Japanese Release Year
RS - 1996
GS - 1999 (3 year gap from previous gen).
RS - 2002 (3 year gap from previous gen).
DP - 2006 (4 year gap from previous gen).
BW - 2010 (4 year gap from previous gen).
XY - 2013 (3 year gap from previous gen).
So 3-4 years in between each generation, which would mean the next gen could be out this year or the next. It is however more likely to come out next year, as nothing have been released yet.
