Because ProWres is one of Japan's biggest subcultures and Tiger Mask/Kinnikuman are incredibly beloved.

why would it? incineroar is unironically 100x better for smash
and decidueye is a shit design so it's not like he's gonna get shilled anywhere else

Owlfag here. I hate incineroar but im not deluded enough to think decidueye would be a very unique fighter. I can find ideas if i really stretch but we just didnt need another pokemon.

It didn't happen because its Special Attack and Speed weren't flipped, and because its Hidden Ability wasn't Sniper.

It was doomed when it had no presence in either Singles or Doubles, and its first stage is the most popular Alolamon.

>Sakurai: While I was having talks with The Pokémon Company, they had shared with me some of the development details for the upcoming Pokémon Sun & Moon games. Up until the very end it was between Decidueye and Incineroar – which one should I choose? I felt like I could do interesting things with either of them, but in the end, I went with Incineroar.

>Sakurai: They were both strong as characters – had it been Decidueye, I could’ve done a variety of things with projectiles and the like.

>Sakurai: Part of what they showed me had an image of a fire vortex coming out of Incineroar’s belt, but that didn’t really go with the pro-wrestling image, so I didn’t use it. I thought it would be more fun if the character revolved entirely around the wrestler concept. That being said, pro-wrestling can be completely different depending on the generation, right? I grew up in All Japan Pro-Wrestling and New Japan Pro-Wrestling’s heyday, when they were still being broadcast on Golden. As of today, though, it seems like there’s a lot of people that don’t really know much about pro-wrestling.

Sakurai just decided that a wrestling character would be more interesting than a projectile spam character

And he was right. Having used all three on one team. Incinaroar was the only one of the three starter Pokemon left with HP at the end of the Championship match.

Greninja was already designed and planned for Smash, so the extra shill was there. Decidueye earned the pleasure of being comedy relief while they sat back and waited for the world to pick which starter they reacted to the most.
Since everyone decided to react to Incineroar (positive or negative doesn't matter) he is the new Charizard

Just by looking at their reference art it's obvious which starter was the planned "shill" between Greninja and Owlcuck. GF never shilled Greninja until the anime asked them to make the Ash form.

Looking at gen 3-5, they never "plan" to shill a starter before the audience loses it

Based Sakurai. Fighting projectile spamming characters is the worst.

Pretty much. Plus adding Deci in the same game as the Belmonts would have not only ruined its impact but also have people resenting its presence.
