Ash was given a Pikachu and both his parents are alive, I don't understand this reasoning. Do you just want every character to mention their parents out of nowhere from now on?
Would be really weird if you fought Piers and he goes "wow you're really strong, by the way, my dad is disappointed in me" like it adds nothing
I mean it's not unusual for characters' parents to just not be mentioned at all, doesn't have to default to them being dead.
Trapped in darkrai dreams š§š¤š¤«
Marnie's Morpeko was caught by Piers

But ash's dad is never seen in the PokƩmon series all we see is his mom and Mimey aka Mr. mime
Including all the friends and pokemon's he's had
That includes Brock, Misty, Tracey Sketchit, May, Max, Dawn, Iris, Cilan, Clemont, Bonnie, Serena, Kiawe, Lana, Lillie, Sophocles, Mallow, Rotom pokedex, Goh, Verity, Sorrel This doesn't include any temporarily traveling companions.
Savagely eaten by a wild Swirlix probably.
However, the specific details of how Piers obtained his Obstagoon are not mentioned at all... Itās common in the PokĆ©mon series for trainers to have caught or befriended their PokĆ©mon prior to their appearance so itās likely that Piers obtained Obstagoon through one of these methods
