And even then, you could still do that unique Pokemon idea without using a blockchain. Use unique identifiers in a good old database, or, heck, just tell the user with words, “there are many pidgeottos but this one is yours”.

A blockchain idea has to not only be a good idea, but also not possible with simpler technology for it to be genuinely worthwhile.
