>>33480608>I guess Sugimori decreed his Tiger Mask mon be prominent this generation after all.Shur, but they stopped ever since the 20th movie. Shur sugimori loved his cat, and gave it some good attention, and even went above and beyond to with it's story so it could be remembered as the one fire starter that had the best but most tragic back story. but I think that's it. Shur they'll give him time to shine in the future like, evolving, getting new Z-move,like every other pokemon in the main gang. But aside from promotion by special evolutions or making appearances in other games out side of the main games. Or further shilling to the litter line in general, it's pretty much over. Littens arc already past. And now they are moving on to other pokemons that they can actually market, like lycanroc Dusk(which failed pretty badly by they) or Rowlet and Decidueye, even with all the gifts that Littens been getting, and how many times they tried to make Rowlet look like a joke, Both it and Decidueye have just been getting more popular in the back. And I think even GF noticed that. Why do you think there is a lot of Rowlet merchandise, when Duck only got like what? Two, one, even Decidueye is getting shilled from the back it made an appearance in pokken when Rowlet In the anime hasn't even gotten it's own arc yet.
Sugimori loves his cat, but even he can take and acknowledge the simple fact that it's not that marketable.
And no hate, it's just what I think.
