So who wants to take a guess on their potential typing from what we have seen? For myself, I think first and foremost that their primary typing will at least be Steel, for both or for at least one of them.
If they are both Steel-type, they could be mono, but I like to think they are Dual-type with Steel being primary. As such, here are my guesses as what their secondary typing could be, if Steel is their first:
Zacian: Steel, Steel/Fighting, Steel/Water, Steel/Ice, or Steel/Flying.
Steel/Fighting = Because of the sword it has, and sword attacks, such as Sacred Sword, which is classed as Fighting type.
Steel/Water = Its sword transforms at the end, becoming larger, and its pommel turns into a tail fin of a dolphin or shark.
Steel/Ice = Not much other than the blue color scheme and the blue glowing sword, which I think leads more towards Water.
Steel/Flying = Because Zacian has wings in its design, and attacked from leaping into the air and diving straight towards its opponent.
Zamazenta: Steel, Steel/Fighting, Steel/Ground, Steel/Fire
Steel/Fighting = Because of the shield it has. Shield attacks aren't classed as Fighting type though, so who knows here?
Steel/Ground = Zamazenta is a heavy looking, defensive oriented Pokémon, stomping on the ground. Its Shield design evokes heat, which could be geothermal.
Steel/Fire = Its shield face/mane, when active, fully folded and powered up, looks like a stylized flame and emits intense heat.
Note, this is just speculation on my end. For all we know, GF can also just go with absolute weird typing we would never think of.
