It sometimes doesn't even matter, it's only when GF feels like they don't want to be retarded or not. They missed big opportunities to make Pokemon like Samurott, serperior even more popular then they should be just by giving ash one. That'll at least make them more money. But they chose to go stupid pig and get nowhere, and on top of that gen 5 was looked down upon as a gen.
They still got time to fix gen 7. They see how much popular Decidueye Is, he sells merchandise, and even made Pokken a dead game playable again. and All they have to do is give ash a OP Decidueye, honestly that's the only thing GF can do to restore this almost Dead gen.
