::The term is used in place of legendary, and I've seen them grouped as "Legendary Pokémon and Mythical Pokémon", indicating that mythical Pokémon are not legendary Pokémon. The [http://www.pokemonconquest.com/en-us/outline/densetsu Conquest website] does this, but I don't really want to put too much trust into it since it has all the game characters quoted saying "legendary Pokémon" in the section titled "Mythical Pokémon", and referring to a Zekrom, which is not a mythical Pokémon. | ::The term is used in place of legendary, and I've seen them grouped as "Legendary Pokémon and Mythical Pokémon", indicating that mythical Pokémon are not legendary Pokémon.

::Also, for anyone who's wondering, "mythical Pokémon" is lowercase like "legendary Pokémon". While pretty much everything else capitalizes them, the in-game dialogue doesn't (for in-game usage of "mythical Pokémon", see post-defeat quote of the first Grunt in Liberty Garden). --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 13:07, 30 July 2012 (UTC) | ::Also, for anyone who's wondering, "mythical Pokémon" is lowercase like "legendary Pokémon".

:::Not sure how this factors into the discussion, but Nintendo has recently uploaded a commercial for ''[[Black 2 and White 2]]'' that utilizes the term "Mythical Pokémon" over "Legendary Pokémon" when describing [[Genesect]] near the end. As for my own two cents, I haven't seen "Mythical Pokémon" used much in media except in reference to a scant few Unova-native Legendary Pokémon...I'm not sure whether the term "Mythical Pokémon" is intended to be recognized as a sub-category of Legendary Pokémon, or if the term will supplant "Legendary Pokémon" outright. I personally haven't seen any classification displayed that distinguishes/divides "Legendary Pokémon" from "Mythical Pokémon", only that "mythical" has been preferred/used over "legendary" in recent Pokémon promotions.
