>>31707461Nigga are you seriously arguing pokemon deemed "legendaries" aren't at a statistical advantage over other pokemon?
Yes, the label "legendary" is arbitrary
Yes, some pokemon deemed "legendary" (Regigigas, Articuno, Regiice) are undesirable
Yes, some pokemon with gimmick abilities that hinder them to the point where no one uses them sometimes surpass the advantage
But with all that in mind, do you really think pokemon like Lano, the Tapus, and shit like Heatran and Zapdos aren't set apart by others due to their high base stats?
Like I could run Gliscor, arguably a good pokemon, but why should I when lando has better stats?
And yes this is all cherrypicking, but if you really don't think "legendary" is an appropriate label for non-mega pokemon with 600+ bst, a term in use to describe the very same since generation fucking 1, then you are daft.
