What do you a specific legendary, or legendaries think of humans and humanity?

I find it strange that only three legendaries, The Swordsmen, out of the whole series have outright negative opinions about humans, and the rest are all vague. At most they all seem neutral if not wary of humans.

Discuss.

Of the legendaries that regard humans with feelings and treat humans with something other than indifference, they tend to be on a more "earth level," rather than a divine level or a concept incarnate, and seem to have personal interaction.

Latios and Latias are magical jet plane dragons, who never really seemed to face human hardship and, I guess, can tell the good and the bad, and find them a bit curious, I guess. Never really saw the movies, just when they appear on games and that Ash almost had Latias try to start something.

Mewtwo, depending on your source, was originally fine with humans, but years of being beaten with a stick by a mob boss and mad scientists made him more jaded and a cynical towards humans. Though, I guess he has improved his outlook a little, now that he isn't being beaten with a stick constantly.

With the Musketeers, they witnessed and experienced the brunt of human wickedness during the ancient great war. After all, they had to lead scores of innocent by-standard pokemon out of their homes and protect them. And of the legendaries, they seem to be the type who never forgets. They only got better in BW2, because stopping a mind controlled Kyruem from freezing the world was a larger priority than holding onto a grudge.

I guess the only other mon that come close with be Celebi, but that mon feels to not really have any personal feelings or ties.

Jirachi seems to come down to act as like a magical fairy to grant wishes, and then disappear. So....I guess it has a favorable view...but there'snot much. It did appear on a picture with Archie and Matt

Do the regi's even have emotions?
Or are they just motivated by some complicated algorithm?
>Must rock
>Must ice
>Must steal
>Must tow continents in place

Maybe Regigigas, while the other ones are constructs to mimic regigigas? The lack of a face and interaction hampers it.

I just thought about it, what if the muskateers and Keldeo were actually humans that somehow got turned into pokemon, owing their lives to pokemon or something, which is why they try so hard to defend them?

Thundurus and Tornadus are like Groudon and Kyogre.
These guys couldn't give two shits about humanity, meanwhile Tornadus and Rayquaza care about it and are even treated as gods.

Their shtick, though, is balance. Even without humanity, they'd probably still do the same thing regardless.

What the OP is going on about is mon that actively have an opinion of humans, or even negative opinions of humans.

Most legendary poke'mon seem to have have no real opinion, as they're pretty much divine beings, living concepts, or more akin to forces of nature.

And currently, only 4 legendary poke'mon actively dislike to despise humanity, with those being the 3 musketeers and mewtwo. As for poke'mon that do seem to cause a lot of death, strife, and/or etc. don't necessarily target humans, but anything.

But also on the flip side, there seems to be relatively few legendaries that actively like, or have a positive outlook, on humanity. Like with the hate thing, most legendaries are largely indifferent or view humans as ants. Those that seem to actively enjoy the company of humans seem to be limited to Latios, Latias, probably Jirachi, and maaaybe Celebi, unless someone can add anything else or argue against what I said.
