Well Fresh came out in 2009, and Suite came out in 2011 and it's 2016 now so....

I think the reason for it is because from hearing from mothers who have children that were into Pretty Cure, they grow out of it when they start to get a bit older, which may be the reason. Once those children have gotten older and stopped watching, the need for their screentime and speaking roles get's reduced for the new seasons and for the new viewers. Let's say a kid was 5 when they watched Suite, okay? They would be at or almost 10 now, which is a time where most children have already stopped watching Pretty Cure. For Fresh, 11 or 12.
