My suspicion against it happening is that if they boosted TR then they'd have to have a palpable amount of occasions they were at least a halfway threat against the twerps, and they've really struggled with that this series, Mimikyu never really got a proper full battle against Pikachu despite being shilled as a trump card, and as of their last face-off he's pretty much a standard TR punching bag.
The Alolan Meowth episode was about the one time this season I've seen TR actually force some semi amount of effort from the twerps to stop them, otherwise it's been curb stomps, or Bewear or something else stopping them. If they gave them a Z Move they'd either have to boost these amount of plot armour climaxes (thus returning to the monotonous formula of DP and XY), or have more genuine even handed fights with TR. If they couldn't be bothered to write a climatic battle for Ultra Beast Lusamine, I don't see TR getting MULTIPLE ones.
