Here’s a good look at some of the amiibo patterns from Yoshi’s Woolly World. When you tap an amiibo that doesn’t have a specific pattern in the game when scanned (like the pokemon amiibo for example), you get the amiibo Yoshi pattern.

Reminder that the Pokemon company is literally SO stingy with Pokemon that they NEVER let the series appear anywhere but in their own games.

Third party companies are more willing to include their characters in collaborations like this than The Pokemon Company is. Even if it’s just a little reference like this.
This is why we never see Pokemon items in Animal Crossing, and we never see it referenced or included in games such as Nintendo Land.

People act like it’s incredible that Snake got into Smash Bros, but the really amazing thing is that Pokemon got into Smash Bros.

TL;DR, the Pokemon Company is a bunch of assholes who never let their characters do fun things like this. The Pokemon amiibos will likely never be used in anything other than Smash and Pokemon games.
