Undiscovered egg group pokemon don't give 3 IVs anymore. That was only in XY. Now they programmed it so it only occurs with legendaries, mythicals, and ultra beasts.
Merchandising, merchandising, where the real money from the franchise is made!
They can also be used to add otherwise stronger Pokémon to the early game. See BW2 for an example with Magby and Elekid.

They keep pokemon like Pikachu and Magmar out of LC.

You could try out an NFE tier. Basically Middle Cup but with a few more choices, like Scyther, Sneasel, Meditite, Gligar... etc. But you can still run Chansey, Dusclops, Magmar, or others.

For the majority of fans, probably not. But this board needs them to continue existing so there's a pokemon people here can relate to.
