*There are two minor exceptions to the above rule: In the post-Elite Four stage of Pokémon Diamond and Pearl, a male trainer on [[Route 229]] can be found using Salamence, and a female trainer can be found with Metagross on [[Route 224]]. This was done to serve as a cameo appearance of the movie characters [[Butler]] and [[Rebecca (movie)|Rebecca]], who used these pseudo-legendaries in their respective [[Pokémon movie|movies]].

*In [[Pokémon Colosseum]]'s Story Mode, [[Shadow Pokémon|Shadow]] {{p|Metagross}} is used by [[Nascour]] and Shadow {{p|Tyranitar}} is used by [[Evice]]; it is notable that the two [[Cipher]] leaders have positions comparable to those of the final [[Elite Four]] member and [[Champion]], respectively. [[Pokémon XD]] complemented the list of pseudo-legendary as of [[Generation III]] by featuring Shadow {{p|Salamence}} (used by [[Eldes]]) and Shadow {{p|Dragonite}} (used by [[Miror B.]]).

*While most pseudo-legendaries are obtainable in the wild strictly in their first form, {{p|Dragonair}} is also obtainable in the wild in most games where {{p|Dratini}} is (all but [[Pokémon Red and Blue|Pokémon Red, Green]] and [[Pokémon Blue (Japanese)|Blue]]). Likewise, {{p|Pupitar}} is available in the wild in [[Pokémon Crystal]].

*With the exception of {{p|Metagross}}, the pseudo-legendaries have a double weakness to one type: In the case of {{p|Dragonite}}, {{p|Salamence}} and {{p|Garchomp}} the double weakness is to {{type2|Ice}} moves, whereas in {{p|Tyranitar}}'s case, it is to {{type2|Fighting}} moves.
