The martial arts fighter Sawk, for example, was discarded when animators failed to agree on the texture of its judo-inspired outfit. “For Pokémon, what might feel like clothes is actually skin,” he says. “We would have hour-long conversations trying to wrap our heads around that.”Look at Sawk foot, it's fused to the karate "outfit" to showcase that it's not actually wearing one. You can't take of the "gi" without skinning Sawk. In the same vain you would have to rip off meowscarada face to take off the mask. Just as sawk fused foot so did they make it so that meowscarada closes it's eye with the "mask".
