>>47407552>LucarioUnlike any of the Gen 8 starters, he actually starring role in the movie. All of them were bunked down to cameos in Zarude's movie, no major roles.
>Greninjaaround the time they were picking a Gen 7 rep, there wasn't anything settled on in the anime. Hence why Smash 4 Greninja didn't have that dumb oc form.
>Battle Royale-Battle Mansion wasn't tailored to Greninja
-stadiums in SwSh actually stick around where unlike Battle Royale Dome it was briefly introduced and moved on with.
>PopularityI already mentioned that Incineroar was solely picked for moveset reasons over Decidueye. Of course it doesn't matter.
Don't be surprised if they pick a eurospy-inspired moveset over another sport-based moveset or grass dk. Because that's gonna happen again.
>ZoroarkGen 5 representation was all over the place in Smash 4, I'm bound to believe they dropped her for Solozard because of the 3DS limitations eating dev time for both games.
But you're right, there's a huge chance Gen 8 getting skipped, as they're not afraid of doing so anyways.
There's also a big chance of shilling a remakemon like they did with Gen 3.
