They're sublegendaries.
>>29987296
Nobody legitimately denied this. Everyone who said that Tapus and UBs were Legendaries was baiting.
Demoted to lesser gods
>>29987315
Fuck off. "Sublegends" is not even an actual term. And I guess you don't consider the legendary birds or beasts legends either?
>>29987315

>>29987315
no shit sherlock. everyone knew they were on the same level as the birds, beasts, regis, pixies, genies and musketeers.
interesting that type: null and silvally are on there. guess this answers that question.
>>29987315
>sublegendaries
Ayy
>>29987315

is this real?
This determines their Pokedex colors, right? True legends = rainbow, 3 perfect IVs, and banned from official formats. Sublegends = green and 3 perfect IVs.
>>29987296
>>29987315
So they're basically just legendaries
>>29987315

Everyone who played the game knew this already. Their dex entry don't have a golden border.
>>29987369
Hey, asshole, sublegends is the term the game uses internally, I didn't make it up.
>>29987442
Yes, but that is most likely just to differentiate what is and isn't banned in facilities, is my guess. And in the end they're still just legendaries.
>>29987477
It's for the Pokedex.
>>29987477
>what is and isn't banned in facilities
that's why they are subLEGENDARIES
>>29987442
Coding terms don't mean shit. Until someone in actual canon uses the term sublegend I'll keep calling them legendaries.
>>29987528
>>29987477
Obviously they're still legendaries in the sense of the term that we use (lorewise), these are just restriction categories.
>>29987381
Well we knew they couldn't breed.
>>29987477
People have used the term 'trio legend' since gen 2 to separate the legal legends from the illegal legends but with stuff like Heatran, the Latis, ect. the trio/box/event formulation doesn't work that well anymore.
>>29987597
On top of that, Deoxys is now legitimately obtainable outside of events, so you can't even call him an 'event' legend anymore yet he's still banned from Nintendo events and treated as an event.
Hence the 'mythical' distinction. So there are 3 categories of legendaries. Mythicals, legendaries and sublegendaries.
>>29987315

>>29987528
Just like Pseudo Legendary, even do it's still a fan therm to this day, but you still use it, right ? Hahahaha, put a screwdriver in your throat.
>>29987315
>Top Kek
>Top Lel
Did you edit those in or are those their actual names in the code?
>>29987614
Mythicals are still called legendaries within the games code though.
>>29987666
What do you think shit for brains
>>29987528
It's still nice to have an official term of sorts to further distinguish the kinds of legendaries.
>>29987666
Satan confirmed for moron.
>>29987666
Those are my comments about what each number is, so that I don't have to remember species from magic number. Pic related.

EVENT CONFIRNED
It's been 3000 years.
>>29987751
Are Phione or Deoxys coded as Mythical?
>>29988033
yes
>>29987986
What about Hat Pikachu?
>>29987614
Even Nintendo's been back and forth on whether Deoxys is still mythical.
>>29987751
>while(1)
>break;
>>29987315
Anyone who didn't think Tapus and UBs were going to be considered legendaries on the level of trios or stuff like Heatran was a retard. Type: Null and Silvally is a bit surprising though. So that means Nihilego is indeed the first Poison legendary.
>>29987296
Where the fuck are the hat pikachus at?
>>29987597
I called them street legends because they are street-legal.
Also had a separate box for them in XY.
>>29988197
He and Darkrai are insanely popular. I expect Darkrai to be removed from mythical status in the DPPt remakes.
>>29989304
They are Mewtwo of Gen 3 and 4 respectively so that makes sense.
>>29987986
Does this mean we wouldn't be able to use it in Battle Facilities?
>>29989304
Even if it appears in-game it'll still be considered Mythical.
It's an official title distinct from Legendary.
>>29987315
POP THE CORKS BOYS, NIHILEGO IS OFFICIALLY THE FIRST POISON LEGENDARY.
>>29990589
Cosmog, Cosmoem, Type: Null and Silvally should be added to that list.
>>29987528
Have they been called legendaries IN canon? Cause I'm pretty sure no one has. Meaning you autistically sticking to calling them legendaries is as bad as calling them sublegends, well, if we stick to your logic
>>29990814
What's your point? Mythicals aren't called legendaries in canon either.
"Legendary" as the be all end all term was just an early mistake on the localization's part.
>>29990629
And Phione.
>>29988863
That is a disassembler output. The original coding may be something like:
int max = sizeof(legendaries);
for(int legend_ind = 0, i<=max, ++legend_ind) {
if(monsno == legendaries[legend_int])
return 1;
}
...
Why does the Pokedex differentiate between full and sub? I'm assuming its because Rotom says different things but I can't think of what sort of different thing he would say or why, he just says "wow you got a legendary"
Also it shouldn't surprise anyone that these guys are in the same tier as trios and the like
>>29991246
Full legendary lets you know it's banned from battle facilities and Battle Spot, and helps to keep box legends, mythicals, and Mewtwo more "special" than the rest of the ever-growing legendary list.
ETERNAL FLOETTE IS A MYTHICAL OR NOT? I NEED ANSWERS
>>29991463
Yes. Doesn't mean it'll ever get distributed.
so...
>Manaphy and Phione are main legendaries
>Tapus are secondary legendaries
>regular UBs (not Solga/Luna line and Necrozma) are secondary legendaries even if you can catch several belonging to the same species in the game
>Cosmog and Cosmoem are totally main legendaries too, not only its final evo
>Type: Null and Silvally are secondary legendaries (so there's another legendary pokemon capable of evolving)
That's really interesting
>>29987315

>everything else uses its normal name
fake and gay.
>>29991698
Those are comments so that you have a clue what the incomprehensible lines of code mean.
If someone was going to fake this they would have at least had the forethought to write the correct names
>>29991027
Who cares about "mythicals"? I have never and never will call anything mythical. I don't use fan terms because I'm not a faggot. But now that sublegends is in the game, I might start using it
>>29991698
This is re-engineered code. You don't have access to all constant names. OP just added comments to make the code more understandable.
>>29991621
Wouldn't really call it an evolution since it just takes its helmet off
>>29991835
I don't even know what it means and it only became a thing in like the last year or so. Just autists I guess.
>>29991861
SubLegends is actually the real internal name, but yes, "top kek/lel/bull/fin" are just my commented names.

>>29991894
Mythical is the official term for event legendaries and has been in use since Gen 5 with Victini, although the term was around and distinct for much longer in Japan. ("Phantom/Illusory" Pokemon is what they call them)
What makes them distinct is that they are:
1. Not required for the Pokedex to be considered complete.
2. Automatically banned from battle facilities and VGC, even in the years where they let mascot legendaries play.
>>29987296
Can they breed though?
>>29987296
guardian deities are legendaries.
Stupid.
>>29991103
Also Eternal Floette.
>>29993712
Mythical, but it's not under Legend or SubLegend.
>>29993674
This is straight from the game's code, Richard. And maybe you should read the second post.
>>29993751
Mythical is a category of legendaries pokemon
>>29990589
>THE FIRST POISON LEGENDARY.
>doesn't even have a face
>looks like a water type
I hate it
>>29993397
Why Shaymin? It's not the stated special guardian of any particular aspect of the pokemon world, and by Pokemon canon there's a number of them all living together. It's not truly a mythical, heck, it's barely even a legendary. The thing should be a rare 'basic' like Feebas and have 1% encounter chance in a single grassy are somewhere in the game.
>>29991835
Mythical's an official term you dumb fuck, it refers to event only Pokemon.
>>29993806
Not exactly.
Technically, Spiky Eared Pichu is Mythical.
