Just so you know, Dennou made it [[User talk:Dennou Zenshi#Type/stat superlative trivia|pretty clear]] that that was just an opinion and is by no means binding. Now, I've seen SnorlaxMonster remove such trivia as well, so it's basically a ''de facto'' rule. I only decided to add the exclusion rather than remove the whole trivia because there has been no official rule. In my opinion, Mega Evolutions are not like pseudo-legendaries for several reasons: they are alternate forms, not just unusually strong Pokémon; they are not just a fan designation based on stats; and they are temporary, in-battle-only changes, which basically makes them no different than a stat-boosting move. As you can see from [http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=Archeops_(Pok%C3%A9mon)&curid=116027&diff=2114172&oldid=2114166 our edits], someone thought it notable that Archeops had the highest BST of all Fossil Pokémon, a group with only 11 members. I'd say that small groups like Fossils or Babies or starters should only note the highest BST, while larger groups like types and legendaries should note each highest stat as well. <small>(Sorry for the essay, lol).</small> | Just so you know, Dennou made it [[User talk:Dennou Zenshi#Type/stat superlative trivia|pretty clear]] that that was just an opinion and is by no means binding.

:And in my opinion, any opinion by a staff member, even if explicitly non-binding, is better than having no policy at all, and is thus good enough to apply until another staff member disagrees. But I see your point, and agree that small groups shouldn't note such things.
