Why do Mythicals exist anymore? Back then, they were cool event Pokemon that often came with their own side-stories to build upon the world. Nowadays they come from some random mail-man with nothing cool to them. They're often not that good in competitive play and banned from battle-facilities. Is their purpose just to forever collect dust in your PC Box, or is it seriously just movie fodder? Mythicals are now distributed online anyways, so there's nothing that'll convince people to go outside to Gamestop or whatever.
