@bbynewyear did say “good”
I think Scarlet & Violet work great as titles, even if they're not something super obvious. The words go well together, the colours are a nice throwback to the first gen, but them being "fancier" colours than red/blue/green etc makes them stand out.
In terms of future pairs, some ideas that could work:
Snow & Sand (would be great for a region with a big focus on exploration and a wide variety of environments, from beaches to snowy mountains)
Earth & Wind (based on the two of the four elements other than Fire and Water, which are already Pokémon types)
Metal & Wood (based on the Chinese elements, would be perfect for a region based on China)
0 & 1 (for a futuristic/sci-fi region)
Stuff like Dawn & Dusk or Sea & Sky could work too, but would be too reminiscent of other games.

Lock/Key & East/West are pretty good options!
Salt and Pepper though…
Since ‘Ultraviolet’ is actually a thing I would be distracted a little by the ‘SomethingScarlet’ thing needing to be made up lol. But the games will likely just receive subtitles like Sword and Shield did (Crowned Tundra etc).
Yeah when ‘Scarlet’ showed up in the video I immediately associated it with being a fancier version of ‘Red’ which was cool, but then they mentioned Violet and for some reason I don’t associate that with being ‘enhanced’ Blue. Like it feels like a fairly separate colour. But conceptually the names are sound.
Pokémon Earth/Wind, Sea/Sky are fairly solid and likely.
Pokemon 0/1 is cool but I bet marketing would be worried about branding issues. ‘Pokemon 1’ feels like the off-hand way someone unfamiliar might refer to the first game in the series.
I think Pokemon Heads and Pokemon Tails could work? It’s kinda playful. You’d have a Multi-headed legendary and a multi-tailed legendary. The game theme is based on probability (so, luck and different outcomes of reality).
Pokemon King and Queen.
Speaking of remakes, I used to think that they would remake Gen VI and Gen VII because they were the first games to be ported over digitally but because of the way they function (the dual screen), I think the last remakes we will get is for SM while SwSh and everything afterwards will probably just be ported over as best as it can be.
I know!!! It’s so cute. They’re even thinking up regional forms for it.
This is bound to happen eventually.
