Legendary Pokémon: Difference between revisions

→‎Trivia: "Everything does this, except X doesn't do it" doesn't seem notable to me. Maybe on Gen IV's page, "Gen IV is the only generation not to introduce a Flying-type Legendary Pokemon" might work. But here, it seems like stretching it.

* Though {{p|Unown}} is not considered to be a Legendary Pokémon, in ''[[M03|Spell of the Unown: Entei]]'', it is shown in [[Molly Hale]]'s book about Legendary Pokémon, its power (in large numbers, at least) appears to match that of Legendary Pokémon, and it is explicitly referred to as a Legendary Pokémon.

* Each [[Generation]] has introduced at least one {{type|Flying}} Legendary or Mythical Pokémon; however, the only such Pokémon in Generation IV, {{p|Shaymin}} and {{p|Arceus}}, are only Flying-type in their respective [[List of Pokémon with form differences|alternate forms]] (Sky Forme Shaymin and {{DL|Plate|Sky Plate}} Arceus).

* According to interviews with [[Junichi Masuda]] in 2009, Legendary Pokémon are the most difficult to design names for because Game Freak strives to make sure that the names of Legendary Pokémon are universal across the different translations, so extra work must be put into their names to make sure that they work universally in all languages and don't conflict with anything else. This is consistent with the relatively small number of Legendary Pokémon who have had their names changed significantly outside of Japan (currently nine: the [[Legendary birds]], the [[lake guardians]], and the [[Forces of Nature]]).
