{{p|Cosmog}} is a [[Psychic-type]] Legendary Pokémon introduced in [[Pokémon Sun and Moon]]. Cosmog has a major role in the plot as an [[Ultra Beast]] being studied by the [[Aether Foundation]]. [[Lillie]], the daughter of Aether Foundation's president, [[Lusamine]], kidnaps Cosmog and nicknames it Nebby, hiding it in her bag as she tries to learn more about it by visiting the [[guardian deities]]. Over the course of the game, Cosmog evolves into {{p|Cosmoem}}, another Legendary Pokémon, and eventually the [[version mascot]] of the game: the {{2t|Psychic|Steel}}-type {{p|Solgaleo}} in Pokémon Sun and the {{2t|Psychic|Ghost}}-type {{p|Lunala}} in Pokémon Moon. Another Cosmog can be obtained by the player in the post-game. | {{p|Cosmog}} is a [[Psychic-type]] Legendary Pokémon introduced in [[Pokémon Sun and Moon]].

==Potential Legendary Pokémon== | |||
There are several [[Generation VII]] Pokémon which may be Legendary Pokémon, but have never been explicitly stated to be in official media. These Pokémon are the [[Ultra Beast]]s, the [[guardian deities]], and {{p|Type: Null}} and {{p|Silvally}}. | |||
On the [[Global Trade System]], excluding people searching for "Mythical and Legendary Pokémon" also excludes these Pokémon. In the game data, an unnamed list speculated to be used for tournament restrictions comprises these Pokémon (and no other Pokémon) and all of the non-{{pkmn2|Special}} Legendary Pokémon. | |||
In the [[Rotom Pokédex]], they all share a background that no other Pokémon have. The only other different background color is shared by all {{pkmn2|Special}} Legendary and Mythical Pokémon (the only confirmed Legendary and Mythical Pokémon in the [[List of Pokémon by Alola Pokédex number|Alola Pokédex]]). When obtaining a confirmed Legendary Pokémon, Rotom Pokédex will mention that it is a Legendary Pokémon; when obtaining one of these potential Legendary Pokémon, Rotom Pokédex specifically comments on their group instead (guardian deities, Ultra Beasts, or unable to describe Type: Null and Silvally), thus failing to confirm or deny their status. | |||
{{ | On [[Pokémon.com]], an article about the 2017 Pokémon Video Game Championships rules and regulations [http://archive.is/tIguO originally stated] that no Mythical or Legendary Pokémon are allowed, but was [http://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-news/battle-today-using-the-2017-pokemon-vg-championships-format/ updated] to state that Mythical and some Legendary Pokémon are not allowed. Emphasized by being a deliberate change, this indicates that some of the Pokémon that can be used in the 2017 Pokémon Video Game Championships are Legendary Pokémon, but the only Pokémon that can be used in the format that could possibly be Legendary Pokémon are these Pokémon. | ||
When obtained (in the {{pkmn2|wild}} or as a {{pkmn2|gift}}) in {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}} onward, Legendary and Mythical Pokémon are guaranteed to have three {{IV}}s of 31. (In {{g|X and Y}}, this was instead the case for Pokémon in the {{egg3|Undiscovered}}.) These potential Legendary Pokémon all also have this property, although it has never been stated to be exclusive to Legendary and Mythical Pokémon in Generation VII. | |||
