>>12220004Legendaries have turned into a generic extra catch or something you can't get if you don't live in USA, Japan or Europe.
Also, having 20 each gen makes them lose meaning.
Latios/Latias are better as generic pokemon.
Heatran, Cresselia, Manaphy, Phione and Darkrai are filler. Darkrai is also better as a generic pokemon. Shaymin too, but at least it fills better the cute legendary place than Manaphy.
And in 5th Gen, the Kami trio should either be removed or replaced by one. Meloetta sucks and Genesect is a great idea badly executed.
That said, the Gen 1 legendaries could get a bit more of backstory, but the number is fine.
