WA releases a good many. The west side of the state has few wild birds and about your only opportunity on that side of the cascades for pheasants are release sites.
It ain’t my cup of tea, but it’s an opportunity for folks that are just starting, can’t travel, or just enjoy it for what it is.
My buddy had a lab that was hilarious at release sites. Leave the gun in the car. Just turn him loose and he’ll fetch a limit of birds in pretty short order😂
