Why is there no National Pokédex in S/M not on US/UM? Is there an official answer to this question?

I have been trying to search for an official answer on this on the internet and haven’t come up with anything official from Gamefreak. Can someone help me out on this? Is there a link to an interview?

Yes, I’m aware that the Pokebank has a National Pokédex in it now, and yes, I have speculated as to why there isn’t one in the Gen VII games at all (limited memory, less pressure of collection all Pokemon in existence, Pokebank, etc), but I really want to see if there’s an official answer to this question.

If there’s a link to an interview with the official answer, please post it as a reply (maybe the mods know more about this).

I don't believe the official answer you're looking for exists. It's not really in their nature to comment on minute specifics like that.

The assumption was likely that for people who cared that much about being able to read Blastoise's Pokédex entry, Bank's National Pokédex was good enough.
