  • Two reasons.

    The first is because the current show is safe and nets them a lot of money. Doling out so much more for a show that isn't recognized as official, and as such, reaches into various gray areas that could wrestle the nerves of various older persons would be risky and superfluous from a marketing standpoint. More money's great, but they have other ways of expanding their product.

    And the second, it's not theirs. Pokemon owns the anime, which is an adaptation of the game. Pokemon Special, on the other hand, is just one of various manga that happened to sprout up, and its the most successful one. They could form a partnership or buy it, but then we go back to point number one.

    So it's possible, but unlikely.
