They are. That's why Ultra Recon Team created Beast Ball specifically to contain them. I also heard that Beast Ball also works especially well on Eternatus but since you can't legitimately obtain Beast Ball before you finish the game, no one can prove it.

You can, it's called 'trading over one from a finished game'. Also, the only possible 'capture' is guaranteed no matter what you throw.

Yeah I know, but they shouldn't be. The Ultra Beast should've been this hostile invader that Pokémon world had to fend off.
If you're going to let the player capture them, make it so the Beast Ball immediately sends it back to its world.

Having an enemy that is uncapturable lets GF do so much more with the enemy.

According to SV dex, Koraidon and Miraidon are the only Legendaries. The 4 Ruinous Treasures aren't considered legendaries either. Check the dex and look at their page design. Only Korai/Miraidon have golden decorations on their pages.

"Functionally legendary" as in it can only be caught once per file, even though most UB could be caught several times...
Then there is also what is referred in battle facilities like the Battle Tower/Maison/etc as a Special Pokemon.

Special Pokemon include: Legendaries but only the true hard hitters like the box legends, Urshifus, Calyrex, you get the idea; while birbs, regis and other minor legends are fair game. It also includes Mythics, Ultra Beasts and iirc sometimes rare things like Cosplay Pikachu/Notched Ear Pichu

Urshifu is considered a Sub-legendary if I recall, minor. They were allowed on Rank when they were first released. I think Calyrex-Rider is more of a box-legend status, Though the they were allowed on rank separately before the rider status.
