I find it weird that Blaizken was saved for the last pokken announcement before release (technically at release).

Blaziken is a really popular pokemon so ordinarly it makes sense to save him for last as a typical last reveal hype bomb. BUT we already saw him in 2013 when you showed that beta pic of the game the first time. You blew your load on Blaziken years before the game was even announced. Anyone who remembered is just like “yeah, we kinda knew that.”
