no edit summary
(Unstandard page structure in the old revision, and failure to mention that there are 2 kinds of duos; Mewtwo and Mew or Phione and Manaphy do not have the same dynamic between them as the other 3 duos.) |

The lunar duo is a legendary duo of [[Sinnoh]] that consists of {{p|Cresselia}} and {{p|Darkrai}}. Cresselia and Darkrai are commonly seen as polar opposites, just like the aforementioned Johto bird duo of Lugia and Ho-Oh. Also, Cresselia and Darkrai reside on [[Fullmoon Island]] and [[Newmoon Island]] respectively, which are direct mirror images of each other. Cresselia and Darkrai are also known as the subconscious duo because of how Darkrai is said to give people nightmares, while Cresselia does the opposite (giving people pleasant dreams). Furthermore, Cresselia and Darkrai also appear in [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness|Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time, Explorers of Darkness]] and [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky|Explorers of Sky]] as enemies. | The lunar duo is a legendary duo of [[Sinnoh]] that consists of {{p|Cresselia}} and {{p|Darkrai}}.

Those duos are made up of Pokémon with a strong relation in the lore, but their stats and movesets tend to be fairly distinct and not equivalent; these duos can be said to be asymmetrical compared to the true duos. | Those duos are made up of Pokémon with a strong relation in the lore, but their stats and movesets tend to be fairly distinct and not equivalent; these duos can be said to be asymmetrical compared to the true duos. | ||

{{p|Mewtwo}} and {{p|Mew}} make up [[Kanto]]’s legendary duo. They are both very elusive, if not unique, Psychic-type Pokémon. Mewtwo was cloned from Mew, meaning the two share DNA and many traits. In the games, however, they are usually treated as unrelated Pokémon, with Mewtwo's stats, moveset and treatment in the '''[[Pokémon Stadium series]]''' being closer to that of the Tower Duo, while Mew's are closer to that of {{p|Celebi}}. | {{p|Mewtwo}} and {{p|Mew}} make up [[Kanto]]’s legendary duo.

{{p|Manaphy}} is the only legendary Pokémon so far that is able to breed. The outcome however is a separate species, {{p|Phione}}. In a way the sea-fairy duo are a perfect counterpart to the Mew-duo; instead of an unnatural (through genetic engineering in lab), stronger version, Phione is a natural (through breeding), weaker version of Manaphy; both also appear before the "original" in the Pokédex. Due to conflicting evidence from official sources, Phione's status as a legendary Pokémon is uncertain; if it is not a legendary Pokémon, the sea guardian duo is not a legendary duo. | {{p|Manaphy}} is the only legendary Pokémon so far that is able to breed.
