Jeez, you make it sound as if Tikal is despised by everyone. She's a character who had a specific purpose in the game she appeared in, she fulfilled that purpose, so there was no need for her to return. It's not because Sega, Sonic Team, or the fans hate her guts, nor has she been forgotten, it's just that it wouldn't make any sense for her to return, in the game canon, at least.
