So were these basically convergent/regional fakes? Never played Gen 8 but what if these were testing the waters

The concept of the regionals is they play on the Japanese names of the birds but less literally. Freezer still freezes things but it's not literally doing it with ice. Thunder doesn't describe literal lightning anymore, it's more like thunderous kicks. And Fire isn't fire it instead is bathed in a dark evil aura that flows and "burns" LIKE fire

I would assume they are regional variants of the original trio just like any other regional variant (they are related to the original but their bodies evolved differently to adapt to their new environment).

Convergents usually have a similar but different species name to originals.

No where does that say they converged. That's fancy for "these new forms were recently discovered".
They're canonically migratory and rarely seen, so it's soft confirmed that people caught a glimpse of these and thought they were the Kantonians. That's why people still describe them in the context of the typings of the Kantonians.

Why is Zapdos constantly a mosquito and not a hummingbird hawkmoth?
