How is the Waves legendary going to be distinct from Kyogre? He can already control the oceans and rain and can flood the earth.

Kyogre is only a deity in Hoenn, retard. People don't care about Kyogre in the other regions nor do they believe she creates huge floods. That's Hoenn religion.

The same Koraidon and Miraidon didn't make Reshiram and Zekrom redundant. Well, in lore at least.

By being weaker?

They have been toning down the legendaries in scale.

Gen 2 were local legends, but in Gen 3 they can affect the whole planet and Gen 4 entire galaxies.
Then in Gen 5 and 6 they went back to regional/planetary entities and Gen 7/8/9 they're local legends again.

So in Gen 10 they'll probably be legendaries who can control waves and winds to some extent but are subordinated in the grand power hierarchy to Kyogre/Rayquaza who already fulfill the greater Ocean/Sky god archetype.

Like a Celebi and Dialga type deal.

There's also how Lugia has completely different lore in the anime(which was mostly just the movie and downplayed after that) and the game

On that note I always found the tapus a bit silly since they're way too intrinsically related to alola and as such don't work literally anywhere else

I guess the Gen 4 protagonist has to be the strongest trainer then because holy shit. How did he beat those things with regular pokemon?

No it doesn’t. The Embedded Tower was specifically made by people from Hoenn.

They can’t actually do that. Masuda has mentioned multiple times that their lore is greatly exaggerated.

Mascots can just evoke a concept without having dominion over said concept, as seen with Lugia and the ocean and Cosmog's evolutions explicitly being "emissaries" of the sun/moon.
My first thought was that the new legendaries would be themed around sailing somehow, but that would probably step on the -raidons' toes.

Except neither cloud formation is actually shaped like a Gyrados. in fact, they're not shaped like any known existing pokémon.

Gyarados is actually far too popular with casuals to actually get a regional and even if it did get slapped with the re-tool brush, they'd still retain its overall silhouette. Which makes the lack of a segmented body in both cloud formations clearly and obviously not a Gyarados.
