>>58761757Yes, I read the leaks.
And I stand by what I said. Aus, Ea, and Ia are internal codenames for Pokémon from Gen 4 because they were still in development.
They aren't names for gods who created physical avatars.
And Gen 4 Pokémon that don't have avatars also have codenames, so saying "Aus" makes no sense.
I can't imagine you saying "Hy" for Azelf, or "Tex" for Regigas, or "Dahabu" for Darkrai, or "Smilay" for Shaymin. I won't list them all, but you get the idea.
Nowhere in Teraleak does it say that Arceus, Dialga, and Palkia aren't Pokémon. It's also worth noting that these beings existed before the concepts of space and time even existed, when the Universe hadn't yet been born. The avatars are merely physical forms because these Pokemon exist outside of material existence, and that's pretty much it.
Whereas for the giants, we are explicitly told that they are not Pokémon. And that they were killed to provide the 18 plates representing each type.
