Sceptile and Blaziken lacking more screen time in the main anime?

[Thomas Wiencek]

Do you think that Sceptile and Blaziken like Ash's, Sawyer's, May's and Meyer's, respectively, aren't having anymore screen time in the main anime of Pokémon? Why? Please let me know, thanks.

I believe it mostly has to do with the fact that the gen 3 starter mon's just aren't what they're interested in promoting at the moment.

However, the gen 3 starter Pokémon and their middle and finally evolved form had already finally returned in the Pokémon Sword and Shield expansion pass, the Crown Tundra. That's all. :)

Returning doesn't determine that they'll get new screentimes in the anime.
All in all, they will mostly only promote the most recent starters to show off their charms mostly so people will get into the new games if they haven't.
Marshstomp did get (half?) an episode a while back though.
