>>44965109Just seems like good marketing. SwSh are already successful so it's not like they're risking their playerbase going "wait who is this" and a shillmon seems like a predictable choice after Byleth and Min Min.
I don't think a Pokémon is guaranteed to get in, but they seem pretty likely. I mean as far as a Smash character can be likely. After Pirahna Plant, Terry, Joker and a third party pass ending with fucking Byleth I don't know if we actually can predict anything.
