They already had Pichu, that was enough in my opinion. Baby pokemon just don't fit in smash, they are still unexperienced. That is why so many strong and recognizable fighters are in Smash, because each of them resemble some kind of form of strength. Baby pokemon just don't have that spunk in them yet.
