* 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.

* The only generations in which all of its Legendary and Mythical Pokémon have starring roles in a movie are generations {{gen|I}} and {{gen|III}}. {{p|Mewtwo}} had a starring role in both ''[[M01|Mewtwo Strikes Back]]'' and ''[[M16|Genesect and The Legend Awakened]]'', {{p|Mew}} had a starring role in both ''Mewtwo Strikes Back'' and in ''[[M08|Lucario and the Mystery of Mew]]'', and the [[legendary birds]] had starring roles in ''[[M02|The Power of One]]''. Although the normal {{p|Groudon}} didn't have a starring role in a movie, only appearing in the opening sequences of ''[[M10|The Rise of Darkrai]]'', ''[[M12|Arceus and the Jewel of Life]]'' and ''[[M13|Zoroark: Master of Illusions]]'', [[Primal Reversion|Primal Groudon]] had one in ''[[M18|Hoopa and the Clash of Ages]]''—however, there was a [[Groudon (M06)|fake Groudon]] in ''[[M06|Jirachi: Wish Maker]]''.
* Ho-Oh is the only Generation II Legendary Pokémon who does not have a starring role in a movie.
** {{p|Ho-Oh}} is the only [[Generation II]] Legendary Pokémon who does not have a starring role in a movie, only appearing in anime appearances, opening sequences, and in a cameo in ''Lucario and the Mystery of Mew'', only to be Mew in disguise.
** [[Generation IV]] has the greatest amount of Legendary and Mythical Pokémon that do not have starring roles in a movie: the [[lake guardians]], {{p|Phione}} (though its Mythical status is disputed), and {{p|Cresselia}}. This group is notable for not even appearing via cameos in the movies, except for Cresselia, who appeared in the opening of ''[[M10|Giratina and the Sky Warrior]]''. All five have their own debut episodes in the anime, however.
** The [[Forces of Nature]] and {{p|Meloetta}} are the only [[Generation V]] Legendary and Mythical Pokémon to not have starring roles in a movie. The Forces of Nature appear in ''[[BW059|Stopping the Rage of Legends! Part 1]]'', ''[[BW060|Stopping the Rage of Legends! Part 2]]'', and ''[[BW097|Unova's Survival Crisis!]]''. Meloetta appears from ''[[BW082|An Epic Defense Force!]]'' to ''[[BW097|Unova's Survival Crisis!]]'' and in the [[Pikachu short]]s [[PK23]] and ''[[PK24|Meloetta's Moonlight Serenade]]''.
** {{p|Zygarde}} is the only [[Generation VI]] Legendary Pokémon not to have a starring role in a movie, instead having a role in the {{DL|List of XY series episodes|XY&Z}} arc. Zygarde was going to appear in the [[M19|nineteenth movie]] in Complete Forme. However, the concept was eventually replaced by {{p|Volcanion}}.
* Each [[Generation]] has introduced at least one {{type|Flying}} Legendary or Mythical Pokémon, though 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 [[Sky Plate]] Arceus).
