Because it makes no sense. Why is a fox a witch? Using sticks is a thing domesticated dogs and apes do. There is no connection like with cats pouncing and wrestling. Hell even boring and uninspired cinderace is a running rabbit that uses its big feet.(not in any super creative way) The ear hair also goes nowhere and just becomes gross. Why have a fur robe when you know your modeling capabilities are limited? Why do another cone shaped psychic type after gothitelle? Even the best one, fennekin suffers from a gigantic head and nubs for feet. I can’t believe it took until gen 8 to actually get a good fox pokemon. And no appealing to coomers doesn’t count, anything close to a furry or anime does that easily because they’ll usually go off model
