The token does not have flying so he could not block unblockable, Flying or intimidate creatures without any other spell being played.
This is incorrect. The token is put on the battlefield blocking the creature, even if the attacking creature has flying, intimidate, or some other evasion ability. Evasion abilities only matter while you're declaring blockers at the beginning of the declare blockers step. After that point, evasion abilities don't matter. What matter in this case is that the Foliage says to put the token on the battlefield blocking the targeted creature. From Gatherer:
The Saproling token is blocking the attacking creature, even if the block couldn't legally be declared (for example, if the attacking creature has flying, or is Vindictive Mob).

Scientists have calculated that the chance of anything so patently absurd actually existing are millions to one. But magicians have calculated that million-to-one chances crop up nine times out of ten.

This is incorrect. Flash Foliage does not follow regular rules, as the Saproling token is put into play already blocking the creature. This can be used to block things that have flying, are unblockable, or landwalk. The only thing it can't have the Saproling block are things that have shroud, hexproof, or protection from green, because those creatures are not legal targets for Flash Foliage.

This isn't correct. The creature doesn't actually "block" the attacking creature, so it's allowed to block a creature it couldn't normally block. You can use it to block any attacking creature you could target.
