Only because of the capture craze of 5th generation, they're trying to avoid that apparently.the final pokemon of Ash must be a special one since in most of the season he has been stayed with only 5 pokemon, overall.
With Ash Greninja, I very much doubt at this moment in time, they are gearing up for Ash to get a mega evolution. MAYBE after the league, but not before/during.So I assume that its 6th pokemon will be one capable of mega evolve and must be one very close to him. We all know the posible candidates. There is no way that just a random pokemon that was catched in just one episode will be his last.
While 3 seems to be the normal standard for performers, I'm pretty sure Serena having 4 makes sense, for Masterclass. Plus Serena still has yet to win her final princess key which will likely be Sylveon and Pancham, thereby making all her Pokemon having done things in the free performance therefore she needs more variety.As for Serena, is pretty unlikely due to plot reasons.
Having more than 3 pokemon with her will divide the attention and character development between them. Also, she has just started with the development of Eevee. I believe she'll stay with just 3 pokemon by the end of this season.
As I just said, due to the weird way that Serena has been doing her Showcases (or the writers portrayal of it), with Sylveon likely winning Serena getting her final Princess Key, it seems HIGHLY improbable that the writers would leave Serena with a been there done that team for when Master Class happens. If there are going to be multiple free performances, I except Serena with four Pokemon to make more sense than the stale (at the time) team of Sylveon/Braixen/Pancham.
Only way that it would make any sense for Serena to only have those Pokemon if Slyveon occurs AFTER her winning her final princess key, which is highly unlikely given that Eevee is basically confirmed to evolve in February.

My reasoning for captures is simple: The sooner the better, and we all know that Pokemon have previously gotten screwed over when captured *Cough*Noibat*Cough* so Ash and Serena not developing their new capture, in favor of the other Pokemon has repeatedly already happened in the show, so NOT any big deal.
Plus with EVERYTHING going on as I said in my previous post, shoving random capture episode amidst everything especially when its close to Master Class and the Pokemon league, would be extremely detrimental to the captures in question.
Would be easier just to get over with NOW rather than at a worse time.

Of course another possibility (if there are captures) is that these Pokemon are temporary and caught solely for the dance party.
