Celebi was pretty good too. It went downhill after gen 2 though.

Celebi and Mew both generated enormous intrigue. Nothing has ever topped Mew though

there was a legit way to get celebi in japanese crystal, and you can now also get it via VC western releases as well. after that, yeah, mythicals were entirely based around giveaways or promotions, in other words, you better be well informed and fit to travel to that local gamestop or mcdonalds or you're shit out of luck

or just pay 50$ for that pokeball, so you can get the mew, free of charge

In terms of design? I only really like Deoxys, Manaphy/Phione, Arceus, Genesect, Mega Diancie, Hoopa Unbound, Marshadow, and Gigantamax Melmetal. In terms of how you get them, I think Meltan/Melmetal requiring Go is pretty neat even though I hate Go.

It's flat out impossible to maintain mystique and intrigue in the internet age. If it's in the game's code, someone going to hack it in and all the mystique is gone. If someone talks about some secret strat to get a super secret and rare pokemon that no one has seen before, well you can just fucking google it and figure out.
Gamefreak can't be blamed for this. It's just not possible to do mythical in today's world. Frankly the only thing I can blame them for is not scrapping them after gen 3.

You should be more specific. Mew is a good design and can learn all TMs, fitting it's lore of being the ancestor to all pokemon. It wasn't very accessible in gen 1, but that made it more desirable. Celebi was more or less absent from GSC, as far as I know. I feel like mythicals were cheapened when they started giving them out over wifi, getting Jirachi from a demo disk or Manaphy from Ranger felt special.

The Deoxys Navel Rock was the peak. I lost my mind over that shit when I was a kid.

I think the issue is they feel more of a checklist than something unique or interesting. Like how we have to have a regional early route shitmon, a three stage bird and a Pikaclone. Recycling the same concept can be a huge asspain, it also goes back to Pokémon being more merchandise based than ever and mythicals being used to sell tickets to movies and hype cycle merchandise. Mew and Mewtwo felt like natural and secret parts of the first movie and I just look at how shoehorned in a lot mythicals feel like they’re being forced down your throat and you’re suppose to love them. At least stop giving them all the same body types.

Never.
Imagine locking on-cartridge/disc content behind real life time events that may or may not ever open up in your region/area/country.
Mythicals are literal scams and the absolute genuine worst perpetuated sham in Pokemon.

Enjoy your paperweight trophy Pokemon, retard.
Is something seriously not clicking in your smooth brain that something is fucking wrong when you have to glitch to access content that is quite literally ALREADY PACKAGED IN THE GAME?

And yet, you're still not actually coming up with an actual argument here, did you defend the Dex cut and $50 Mew as well?

They could implement the mythical quests as a kind of dlc not present in the code at the launch of the game and keep the thing secret, but it's maybe too hard for them.

so does "did a mythical well" mean releasing it randomly only one time legally for one day in japan?

Celebi had potential if they didn’t fuck up the GS ball in the anime and do away its events on cart. Had it been available like in VC GSC it would have been a lot better. As it is now its just a boring mew clone with nothing special about it.

I want to say Jirachi is bad but I can’t. Its the most readily available mythical there is, since japan likes to distribute this fucker every year, and the bonus discs that print jirachis are always useable.
Also its very cute.
