Legendary Pokemon are weird, so I wanna know what are the rules to them, Mythical Pokemon, Paradox Pokemon, and Ultra Beasts. Hey if you liked the video why not like and subscribe!
I don’t think that you’re correct in saying genderless legendaries was a rule. It only lasted a single generation (no genders in Gen 1) until Latios and Latias. Heatran and Cresselia also have gender.
Oh yeah, that's fair. I guess I missed that, if I had to guess I would say that 3 of those are at least a little explainable though, latias and latios having the gimmick of gendered legendaries makes sense as their siblings and clearly one more masculine and one more feminine, and heatran i kind of talked about just being a weird case a pokemon maybe being legendary just because it's strong. Cresselia i gotta say, weird case idk about that one. Thanks for the information though, sorry I missed that!
I think legendary are based on legends (they are true, they exist for certain & people have often seen/ experienced them) vs mythicals are based on myth (it could be true, it could just be some urban myth)
Hey sorry this video took so long, I had college finals, then moving out of my apartment and getting settled down back at home. I'm planning on the next videos not taking as long!
Came here cus you're using my avatar on IMDb 😂 (Im not the original artist either tho) Urshifu is my favorite legendary, but not AS a legendary, if I may be understood.
On the raritity it depend, some leggendary like lugia, oh- oh kanto birds ecc. There are more than 1. Some leggendary are only one in the universe(gen4 trio+archeus/ gen 8 trio) It all depends on the lore
I kinda always just viewed Legendaries as: 1. Powerful 2. Rare I stopped there and would have prefered it to stay there, but gen 4 just went and made just god and sub gods out of them, something I always thought was just a poor narrative choice. That is also why I adore gen 9 for making the legendaries basically just goofy bike lizards aside from giving us more time to actually have a bond with it instead of it being more of a completion reward. And yea, I personally have a grudge against Arceus for existing (and gaslight myself into believing Dialga and Palkia would be fine without it)
Yeah thats a fair list to keep it at but even then gen 3 still also had them close to gods with the boxart legendaries of that gen being able to control how much landmass there is and how much ocean, but yeah thats fair and I totally forgot the other koraidon and miraidon, which i still would count as limited but its good to bring up thank you!
@@dinerslug ye I was kinda surprised you didn't bring it up because you where so thorough, but everyone forgets stuff sometimes. Yea, a lot of Pokemon scratch the surface of gods, but before Kyogre and Groudon where made out to be also created by Arceus they where "simply"(if you can call it that) two powerful pokemon that shaped the earth and the sea. Something Koraidon and Miraidon are also said to have done in some capacity. Interesting that Koraidon specifically mentions splitting the ground when it has a similar ability to Groudon. (Sparring partners in the past confirmed????)
@@hamdepaf6686 I do think Koraidon vs Groudon is such a cool idea man but hear me out, throw in Regigigas also as the other sparring partner too, The Continent Maker: Groudon vs The Continent Mover: Regigigas vs The Continent Breaker: Koraidon
