I don't think they will just yet as it might be a bit too similar to Alolan Persian for now. Though it would be a cool design so i'd like it.

Alolan Persian was a travesty lol. I really hope to see a proper British Shorthair, or cat Pokémon in general.
I kinda like it now but it was certainly unexpected. But yeah more cat pokemon wouldn't be a bad thing.

I mean I'm not sure how you can get more proper then Alolan Persian considering, as Meowth, it was brought from another region and bred a lot in order to get the way they look now. (and if they really wanted to follow irl, they probably were originally bred in Galar like irl UK)

If there's a cat Pokemon I kinda really wanna see a Fairy typed Cheshire Cat. Would be fun, and Alice in Wonderland is very popular in Japan last I've heard.

Heavy metal could at least give it a more powerful "heavy slam" attack, which could be useful if it's a physical attacker. An accurate high power steel STAB is nothing to scoff at! Meteor mash is inaccurate, and iron heads base power leaves some to be desired. Light metal could help low kicks damage do less, which is admittedly not very useful. However, I do agree with the sentiment that hopefully its HA will be something a little more exciting.
Love the idea. I'd personally go with it as Fairy/Ghost as given its ability to appear and disappear like a ghost.
Now that would make for some cool typing. Very fitting.

Indeed! That would be a perfect typing for it!
They could even reflect that in the Pokemon's model. The body could fade in and out of existence, with only the grin remaining the whole time.
Edit: misspelled "grin"

Do you think they will have HA I game or will we have to wait for Pokemon home to be released? Or will that just be for the starter Pokemon?

A fairy/ghost Cheshire cat would be epic!
Also I'm just hoping for some more unique typings (like bug/dragon) with the new Pokemon

Fairy/Ghost?
Edit.... He suggests before reading the the comments that follow the above post....
Additional edit with a more though out idea.
Kittievous--max friendship-->Catshire
Fairy/Ghost
Prankster, Clear Body
HA, Strong Jaw
Kittievous, The Playful Cat Pokemon. Kittievous love to play with others, even if they aren't in the mood. They are often found playfully swiping at the feet of any that pass by the shadows that they are hiding in. Since they can move freely between shadows, upon investigating the person or Pokemon that was attack is often left confused as Kittievous has moved to another shadow.
Catshire, The Grinning Pokemon. It's large round body is made that much more off-putting by the large grin it always wears on its face. Regardless of their size they can make almost their whole body disappear, except for it's grin. Additionally despite it's size, it is very lite and able to float through the air, meaning if they do disappear you may find a random catty grin floating above you.

Just thought of something: What if Rolycoly’s evolution(s) is a Transformers-like creature? Like, it has an ability that changes it from a rock monster to some sort of vehicle (probably a motorcycle or train), similar to Aegislash’s Stance Change.

I have been looking at rolycoly and for some reason he makes me think of the metagross line but in coal form instead of magnetic rock.
It makes me wonder if he is the first stage of a new non-dragon type pseudo legendary! I would love for rolycoly to become a super strong pseudo legendary it has so many possibilities for it be be a strong pseudo legendary!!!

The Fairy/Ghost or Ghost/Fairy Chesire Cat idea is really smart, and could potentially have a really interesting lore to it in the game.

Honestly, alcremie should have been fairy/poison
And that's that on that.
Unfortunately, Duraludon is too lightweight to make use of Heavy Slam, even with Heavy Metal.
With Heavy Metal, Duraludon would weight 176 lbs.
For Heavy Slam to have maximum power, the target's weight must be less than 20% of the user's weight. That means, for Heavy Metal Duraludon to inflict max damage with Heavy Slam, the target must have weight less than 20% of 176, in other words, less than......35 lbs. Most of the Pokemon with weight less than that, are NFEs that no one would bother using in competitive, and for in-game, they are usually weak enough that Iron Head would do just fine against them.

It totally should have been! Could have been inspired by the use of poison in food and drink as a means of assassination in the Middle Ages and Renaissance.
That would have been a pretty interesting typing. It's too bad that it's not that.
