Anyway, back to the topic at hand, While it is very likely to get a new elder dragon, there are currently three games in the series to not feature a new elder dragon (portable, P2nd, and FU), yes, the majority was in 2nd gen which already had a boatload of elder dragons introduced in, but there's every chance we won't get a new one.
