I can't see a similar plot to the games since the anime tends to be sensitive when it comes to real-world disasters and it's something I find too dark for the anime, especially when you take real-world connotations into account and how much the writers go to avoid connections to recent disasters and their traumatic impact.
I was under the impression that Lysandre wouldn't show up. If he does, it might be just in the background, other than the two minutes where he was communicating with Alan. Or showing up long enough for Zygarde to blast them into another region.
If he did play a bigger role that would be neat, because I'm already loving that they're collaborating the movies / specials with the anime, but I'm not counting on it. D:
