It will be interesting to see what combos we'll get in the future (as well as the two remaining categories to be revealed)

Yellow could be extinct animals in general, like how Kaiserbee matches with something called "Charis", so that could mean anomalocaris. I totally agree about pink though, as "Oni" would easily fit in that category. Although Hibiki would argue it's a job.

Speaking of Hibiki....

Considering how Hibiki was a commercial failure, they might just skip to Reiwa Kabuto instead. Like how Zero One the Reiwa Kuuga was followed by Saber the Reiwa Ryuki.

Which means this pattern doesn't actually make sense anyway, cause there's nothing to compare to Geats.

All I can see is Don Momotarou.

Part of Kamen Rider Club's activity does give them the opportunity to leave campus sometimes, especially after Ohsugi gives his approval. Maybe Gotchard will also be some kind of school function.

The "bara" part must be from the Japanese word barasu (ばらす) which means to take apart, and that one eye definitely looks like it could rip stuff to shreds. Has a literal grinder/shredder for an eye.

Nice observation!

Not quite 100% yet. The rumor of a pseudo turned out true, sure, but there's no evidence to suggest he'll eventually upgrade to Secondary.

I'd hope they handle the upgrade from psuedo to Rider differently, as I disliked the aesthetic of Kamen Rider Chaser losing the uniqueness he had as Machine Chaser. The white of Mach and the silver of Chaser made the group dynamic look too much neutral to me.

1) Philosopher's stone - the main goal of all alchemical research, fits thematically and bestows immortality, which will clearly help create a strong final form.
2) Life, the Universe, or something equally global that can unite the previous 100 cards.
3) Kamen Rider. I hardly believe in such an option, except perhaps as a form for a summer film. But for the trend "the final form is similar to the base" is suitable.

Your first 2 options sound plausible. I'd also suggest the concept of "void" or "quintessence", a mysterious power that exists beyond our material realm.

Sounds like my prediction about the attachment allowing 10+ sum cards might turn out true!

Congrats on your 1400th post!
