Those guys are loaded, they also got all of 4kids old stuff, you know, DBZ and Yu-Gi-Oh, the REALLY valuable franchises... They fucked up Zexal and now they're ruining Pretty Cure too!

Also, they can't call them Pretty Cure due to copyrights. A while back there was an English dub of the first season of Pretty Cure, never reached America but it was in Canada, and the studio that did that dub (which though it has name changes, WAS FAITHFUL TO THE SOURCE MATERIAL i.e. Nagisa Misumi = Natalie "Nat" Blackstone and Honoka Yukishiro = Hannah Whitesmith) well, that studio still has the rights to the English "Pretty Cure" title, so Saban had to change it... and they did it in the worst way possible...

And they even got good voice actors... I mean, Laura Bailey's voice is PERFECT in that role, but it's not Miyuki.. it's Saban's bastardized version of her..
