SKINS in LCS
Why do pro players all tend to use the exact same skins? Is there any reason? are they supposed to "push" the new skins?

Maybe they just like them? There arent that many players, most of them having the same taste in skins is definetly possible. Doubt they are forced to push them since a skin definetly has impact on the player.
Mostly a personal preference by the player. Like I only really see Dark Star Jarvan among LPL matches (or I just see more Jarvan there anyway).
Meanwhile Faker basically never uses a skin.
I'm sure some of them are flashing off the new skins. Others, it's for minor advantages a skin can give such as being harder to spot in a bush when you first get vision of it due to colors or the apparent speed at which a blitzcrank hook goes out or the size of a gragas barrel making it easier to forget about in a teamfight for example.
Not all the skins being used are the newest ones. Some are definitely pretty old.
Some feel better to play while some can be disadvantage to use
