Why do people call the Kami Trio genies when they're neither actually genies nor anything like genies?

They're obviously, based on Fuujin, Raijin, and I-have-no-idea-what-other-jin. They also float on clouds, which is a common depiction for Genies. Dragon Quest's Genies, for example.

I still don't understand why Articuno, Zapdos and Moltres are called the Legendary Birds. Can anyone explain?

Because they look like genies.

This was a mistranslation of gen II, not an invention by fandom. It was corrected in gen IV, but old habits die hard.

"Beasts" is the accepted term. Raikou is an obvious Tiger, Entei is debatably a lion, and Suicine is a canine of some sort.

And google is so hard to use, isn't it. Anyway, even if you don't know those legends, not seeing the tiger in Raikou means you're blind.
