Since all other regions get sets, why doesn't Unova? Tag Bolt looks like it'll be a Kanto Set, so does that mean Unova gets a set next year, or never?

I really hope Unova gets a set. Not only would we see N reprinted, we would also get a lot of cool Unova Pokemon GX Cards. It's a shame that Black and White got so much hate:( I would've loved to see a set based off Black and White as well as even some reprints from Black and White series, similar to how Celestic Storm had reprints from the ex series

Why did BW even get hate? B2W2 are some of the best Pokémon games and ORAS got way more backlash for skipping the Battle Frontier.

Why would we see N reprinted exactly?

They didn't reprint Double Dragon Energy in the Dragon themed Dragon Majesty set. There isn't a guarantee that they'll reprint N even with a unova set
Why wouldn't they? Why hasn't N got a reprint yet? I don't see why he shouldn't of gotten one by now

Because they don't want it in standard again? It's pretty clear that the design philosophy has changed with SUM compared to BW and XY era. It looks like they want the game to be different and part of that means not reprinting a card that's been a competitive staple for 7 years

It seems to me as if the minisets/expansion packs are more Unova focused than anything else tbh. Looking at them, Cobalion, Virizion, Sigilyph, Reshiram, White Kyurem and Genesect all have gotten GX cards in one, and Darmanitan, Cofagrigus, Galvantula, Mandibuzz, Ferrothorn (and more) got a card in one of those sets, after not having gotten one in quite a while.

I would love to see a Unova-themed set, but rn it seems like they're more focused on putting Unova into the expansion packs

It would be a bit weird for every single generation to be featured except Unova. I would personally love to see Elesa finally get a full art.

Maybe N will not return as the same card but could return as a new card, maybe an ultra prism, Lysandre for example return as one and with diferent effect
