Why doesn't Pokemon reveal random future gen Pokemon first instead of the starters first anymore?
With this, I refer to how Buizel, Bonsly, Mime Jr, Chatot, Munchlax, Lucario, Mantyke, Weavile, Electivire and Manaphy debuted during Gen 3 before Turtwig, Chimchar and Piplup were introduced.
It's cool to see which Pokemon could be of the next gen, but now we just have the starters first, and not some others.
The last time this happened was during the release of Volcanion and the Mechanical Marvel, which introduced Magearna (a Gen 7 Pokemon) before Ash's journey through Kalos ended
