>>43739987I always thought Haxorus was a pseudo because Iris' usage of it and how it was fitting for Gen 5 to have two pseudos, just like the two legendaries were important in the "base game" of the gen and how we got two paired versions (Black and White, then Black2 and White2).
Funny enough I never considered Metagross one until gen 6 when I got into stats shit because I already saw the pseudos as draconic pokemon (which somewhat includes Tyranitar)
