Releasing a pokemon

Releasing a pokemon - Yellow Pikachu Plushmascot

This article on Bulbapedia says that:

Released Pokémon cannot be found again in the wild

Does it mean that

  • Only the very same pokemon you just released, with all its stats, learned moves and the nickname it had when you released it won't be found anywhere in the game (wild) so that you won't ever be able to encounter it again and re-capture

OR

  • The whole pokemon type will be "blacklisted" from suddenly appearing in the wild to attack you?

I haven't ever released a pokemon when I played, so I don't quite understand what that rule means.

What happens if you release a Pokémon?

Once the Pok\xe9mon is released, it is removed from the player's possession and cannot be encountered again. Releasing a Pok\xe9mon is useful if a player needs to free up space in the Pok\xe9mon Storage System.

Do you get anything from releasing Pokémon?

For every Pokemon you release, you'll be given presents from the Pokemon before they disappear into the wild. These presents are generally Grit items such as Grit Dust, Grit Gravel, Grit Pebbles, and even Grit Rocks.

Should I release Pokémon?

Should You Release Pokemon in Pokemon Legends Arceus? Yes, absolutely. Research tasks make you catch dozens of the same Pokemon species, and aside from the evolution tasks, there's just no reason to keep that many. Legends has no breeding system, so these extra Pokemon are essentially just taking up space.
