Ballpark timeline for Gen 4 rollout?
Anybody have guesses on when more of Gen 4 will be rolled out/how many waves they'll do to get the majority of non-legendaries in the wild? I didn't really pay attention to the Gen 2 and 3 rollout, so I'm not sure what to expect. Not expecting specific dates or anything, but are we talking weeks, a month, months...

Gen 2 was a full non-legendary rollout bar Smeargle and Delibird, so 93ish at once, and then several of Gen 3 have yet to come out (such as Shedinja and Kecleon), so each wave averaged /about/ 25 mon out of 135 in all of Gen 3. We just got 26 all told, so I would expect 2 more waves of equal size, plus legendaries and a few held back for mechanical reasons.
It's insane to me that it's reasonable for us to expect a few held back for mechanical reasons. I'd get if they held back stuff for financial reasons (create hype for the release of something that's a bit more special), but inability to code or to decide how to code a gimmick in a game that's this simple? Ridiculous show of incompetence.
