So... are they Legendaries?

>>30747104
Yes. They are programmed as Legendaries, so yes they are.

So is the three Nulls/Silvally.

>>30747104
they're gprotector of Alola's Islands

>>30747122
Gladion has 1 Null, we got another, so what do you think about the 3rd? Still frozen?

>>30747134
Faba will use it with a Psychic Memory in Stars.

Null/Silvally is just a well done Absol not legendarie

>>30747104
BST's too low for it

>>30747149
>>30747152
They are programmed with the Legendary tag, so yes they are Legendary. Whether you like it or not.

>>30747158
you're saying horseshit man, the fact that it's unique doesn't make him legendarie

>>30747148
kinda reminds me of the djinn from Magi

>>30747104
>literally guardians of their islands
>one of each
>Pokemon has a history of grouping legends in duos, trios, and quartets
why would they not be legendaries

>>30747169
I'm talking programming you fucking idiot. Legendary Pokémon are quite literally programmed with a data tag that says "Legendary" or "Sub-Legendary". And all the Tapus and both Null and Silvally are programmed with these tags. So no matter what you say, it is an objective fact that they are Legendary, because they are programmed as so by GameFreak.

>>30747184
No legend arround them. They're just altruist pokemon who decide to protect Islands from no menace at all, until you move in.

>>30747201
Not that it matters much anymore, Game Freak has been actively blurring the lines between Legendary and normal Pokemon.

>>30747215
There's no legend surrounding them because they are still fulfilling their roles. Legends are stories of things long gone (or non existent), but the Tapus' roles are still in the present.

Hold up, does this means Solgaleo and Lunala gave them the power to create giant bodies as seen in Guardian of Alola?

>>30747309
There's a separate "unbreedable" tag for things that are unbreedable. This legendary/sublegendary tag has nothing to do with eggs.

You see Pichu in that list?

No, the tag used for Pokémon that cannot breed is called "Undiscovered", and is an Egg Group. The Legendary denoting tags are a completely separate thing altogether.

I made this image, but it might also be complete horse shit.

The faggots at Bulbapedia think SciresM faked the entire thing. They don't even think much of the fucking green dex color. And there are people on Serebii who think the list was just to make easier to blanket ban powerful pokemon.
They may be right, but eh.

The UBs could be their own category, and so may be the Tapu. Kind of like Pseudo Legenadies. Like fuck if that's going to stop us fans from using our fan-terms. I still remember when we had "cute" and "uber legendaries.

>>30747341
Pichu

There's one.

I can also add Cleffa, Igglybuff, Riolu, Munchlax and loads more if ya want.

>>30747341

Nidorina, Nidoqueen.

Manaphy, additionally, is breedable and on that list.

They've used this term for more than a decade you fucking idiot. Nothing you say is true.

>>30747355
"Mythical" is just a word NPCs use, those Pokémon are still programmed as just "Legendary".

>>30747357

>>30747359
All of them are exceptions. you can hatch them.
and manaphy is the exception just for phione.

>>30747400
>This is just an unbreedables list!
>Except that there's about 15 exceptions

Fuck off

>>30747414
it is an unhatchable list then

>>30747392
my image name is legendaries, having the middle be called box-legendaries is wrong because of Zygarde, Mewtwo, and Necrozma. So I stuck with the basic "legendary". I still consider sub-legendary legendary. The trios haven't gone that-down in status.

>>30747355
I mean given the criteria, it seems about accurate. They've thrown a lot of existing criteria for a legendary out the window already, such as no gender (with Lati@s, Genies, and Heatran) and no breedability (Manaphy) and they just threw some other ones out (no evolution chain and one-off). Now it's essentially just Pokemon that are relevant to the story or lore. Or are event only in the case of Mew clones and friends.

Are you just not a native English speaker? I can't think of any other reason why you'd be so incredibly dense about this.

>>30747626
Im saying the list is fake for using fan terms.

Also for some reason the tapus are the only incorrectly spelled Pokemon on that list. Probably because the guy that made it thought it was funny

>Top Kek
there is no O in tapu and there is no E in Koko so how could this happen? maybe "Tap kok" but not this.

>>30747700

The names of the Pokemon on the list are commented in. Think before you speak.

>"h-he's just lying!"

You can see his old tweets from datamining of the game (also the demo), he's legit, even if the list itself was made by him, "legendary" and "sub-legendary" terms are in the code, just deal with it and commit sudoku

I thought that "incomplete evolution" faggot from earlier was bad enough, but now there's another retard probably just as mentally challenged.

What the fuck is wrong with this board?

>>30747700
In any case, the Pokedex entry for every legend and sub-legend are green and sparkles, save for Zygarde and Magearna which are yellow and sparkle.

>>30747784
I'm not sure if it was him or one of the other dataminers, but one of them was planning on faking a leak just for /vp/ until one of the IRC lurkers told /vp/.

I'm not saying he's not legit, he's leaked stuff., but I wouldn't be surprised if this was fake. I still like the subleg term.

Is there any limited availability Pokémon (as in you can't catch as many as you want in a single savefile in any game) that isn't in the legendary list?

>>30748480
My memory is fuzzy, but maybe Sudowoodo.
Volcarona kind of counts
Zoroark
The rest are usually from trades or from baby/egg pokemon, like Larvesta.

>>30748480
Hitmonlee/Hitmonchan, Sudowoodo, Kekleon, Volcorona, Zoroark, and Porygon iirc

>>30748480
Snorlax and Lapris from the originals unless I'm misremembering

>>30748918

snorlax is like exactly that one case of a PKMN that can be caught TWICE instead of once kek

and lapras is just a gift, so you might as well count eevee and any ingametrade-exclusives like jynx and farfetchd...

>>30748480
A lot, every game had several.
But all of them are breedable.

>>30747700

let me get you in on a little secret about programming.

see those semicolons before the names? ";"
anything that comes after it is a "comment" rather than actual data

>>30747149
I named mine "Crwlnginmskn"

This is Phione shitfest all over again.
There's really no definition of Legendary Pokemon. I don't think even Nintendo/GF ever made a list. Typically they share most of this traits:

>High stats and generally powerful.
>One per game in a fixed encounter.
>Inability to breed.
>Prominent role in the story.
>Signature moves/abilities.

With that I think yes, they are

>>30747392
Mythical is literally used in trailers

>>30747215
They might have more lore about them than any legend before them but
> no legend
Besides, why is their legendary status even in question ? They have the green sublegendary background.
And why is their legendary status a problem this gen when the very first one had fucking Mewtwo.

Literally retarded. You can't hatch a Swampert either but that's on the list. This are Pokémon that can't breed. Stop fucking around and realize that you're wrong. If it was all unhatchable why wouldn't all the legendarys be together and include every evolved Pokemon.
