Ash-Greninja was already mentioned that it would be anime-only. Which isnt shocking because its only reason for existence is to make Ash more special. But I dont know why they would keep Zygarde's forms exclusive for several reasons.
Zygarde's BST is 100 less than Xerneas and Yveltal, which doesnt make sense if they are supposed to be a trio. The moves Thousand Waves and Thousand Arrows exist. Zygarde's Pokedex entries say that its true power is awakened when the ecosystem is endangered, directly referencing having a more powerful form.
Zygarde's true forms, 10% and Complete, were given typings, heights, weights, the word 'forme' in their name, and a description. Basically, everything necessary for an in-game Pokedex entry. Possible, but I doubt it for several reasons. For one, at the time Junichi Masuda actually tweeted out about the corocoro reveal of Pokemon XY&Z and I don't recall him ever really doing this for the anime in the past.
Another thing is how even the anime has stated the form Ash-Greninja has gone into has happened before and could be changed for a game release.Also what if they were only shown off first in the anime to throw off fan expectations (Pokemon Z) as well as create a further connecting chain of all the 3DS games later? This point is more of a theory than anything but I feel is still worth noting is how Pokemon XY kind of feel as though it was building towards ORAS and Sun and Moon. I mean 2 of the 3 mythical Pokemon found in XY debut in ORAS with new formes as well as Mega Lati twins with a new soaring mechanic. Given we still do not have access to thousand arrows and thousand waves, AZ Floette and Volcanion, they can be implemented to Sun and Moon, like with what's happening in the anime to an extent.
