>>54896431hmm ok, it's true that Ghetsis implies that Reshiram/Zekrom was revered as a deity, and the God Stone thing is pretty interesting, but I can't find any other supporting text (no relevant hits for "god" or "deity" or even "神" in Japanese) so I'm wondering if maybe the original plan was for them to be seen as deities but they scrapped the idea later.

that said, I think it's neat that we have smaller-scale legendaries revolving around heroic myths or founding myths, which I think are just as important aspects of mythology as primordial deities and shit.
