:::I agree with Maxim here. The article is inconsistent and attempts to reveal patterns that don’t exist.

::I agree that this article/concept is too much of fanon.

== Other 'references' ==
I'm a little unsure about some of the things that appear in the {{DL|Legendary group|other references to trio masters}} section. To me, some of them really don't seem like references at all, namely having to purify all of the Shadow Pokémon in Colosseum and having to befriend all 300 Pokémon in the Oblivia Browser in Guardian signs in order to encounter Ho-oh and Lugia, respectively. Yes, in each of these cases the befriending of a legendary trio is required to meet their master, but befriending the trio ''specifically'' is not. The three legendary birds are indeed needed to encounter Lugia in Guardian Signs, but so are 297 other Pokémon. That doesn't seem like much of a reference to me. It's not even like they're the only legendary trio that appear in the Oblivia Browser anyway. This also applies to the legendary golems in Shadows of Almia. I think that these three points should be removed from the page. [[User:Dannyboy601|Dannyboy601]] ([[User talk:Dannyboy601|talk]]) 16:34, 27 May 2014 (UTC)
== Why does this exist? ==
Why has this fanfiction page returned to dominance?  It makes no sense to have this on every legendary page and only even begins to make sense by combining sources from difference canon.  Lugia is not a "trio master" in the games and it's not a term that's ever even uttered in the anime or manga, any details that this page tells us can be told on the appropriate section of each Pokemons page (such as Lugias relation to the legendary birds in the anime).  This is an eyesore on an otherwise factual and accurate wiki and needs to be mass deleted.[[User:Five|Five]] ([[User talk:Five|talk]]) 09:14, 16 July 2016 (UTC)
:I fully agree, but as far as I'm aware this has been brought up before and never gained much traction.

::I disagree, this page is useful in describing a recurring relationship between legendary Pokémon in the games. While I agree that Lugia's inclusion is perhaps questionable, the others are clearly trio masters. Ho-oh resurrected the dogs, regigagas is clearly the master of the regis, arceus created the creation and lake trio, Rayquaza and Landorus are clearly internal leaders. It's clear that whenever there's a trio, there's usually a clear external or internal leader/master/overseer (whatever you want to call them).

:::::Fanon =/= fandom. The vast majority of those pages are documenting the Pokémon fandom in real life and/or on the Internet.

:::::Wiki's should always be factual, preferably with supporting evidence. My problem is that many articles on here now, this trio master stuff specifically, relies far too heavily on assumptions, theories and fan ideas, most of which only make sense if you assume anime rules and lore apply to the games, which is something we can say for 100% certainty is not the case. I can understand the argument that fanon has its place here, but it shouldn't be so prominent in the description for every single legendary. It's misleading, if not completely incorrect.[[User:Five|Five]] ([[User talk:Five|talk]]) 09:32, 22 July 2016 (UTC)

:I'm really not sure you can call this "fanon". In fact, "fandom" really is more accurate. The only thing that's really not canon is the name "trio master", but that's what the unknown name template is for (and look just how many times it's used on this site). Each "master's" status over the respective trio are supported by canon. This relation between one more powerful Pokémon and a trio (or two others, thus creating a trio) isn't exactly disputable. It's mentioned time and time again, in game after game.

:Except the thing here that is truly non-canon is the term itself. Trio Masters are canon that has been made clear on different occasions such as with the weather trio.

:::This article should not be deleted, but the rules should be voted on as to what should be taken into consideration as to what qualifies a Pokémon to have such a title.

The deletion template has been on the page for years. The conversation should probably still continue because having so many of them is quite annoying. I'll say the page and concept should be moved over to fan terminology. Based way too much on speculation and non-specific evidence. The information is however important, but the actual term is complete speculation. I'd suggest a page that describes the relationships between Legendary and Mythical Pokemon, Which would also include some extra information on Pokemon who AREN'T duos/trios such as the Tapu with Solgaleo/Lunala, who have lore with eachother but isn't mentioned very much on their own pages. The legendary titans aren't really a trio anymore either, but all the information relating to them is on their own page, making a "Trio Master" page for them completely redundant unless you want a page with quick summaries (which is what I'm suggesting). But even then it's a bit redundant knowing how there is a page for {{redlink|Myths and legends involving Legendary Pokémon}} also exists and has most of the information people are likely looking for.

== Rather than deleting this page, here's my take... ==
I think this page is necessary, and it already makes it clear that "trio master" is a fan term and not particularly elucidated by the games in every instance. While it can be argued Lugia, Ho-Oh, and Arceus being "trio masters" is fanon due to the fact that they only have very loose, very roundabout in-game associations with their respective trios, it is an established fact that Rayquaza is the master of the weather trio, Regigigas is the master of the titans, and Landorus is the master of the Forces of Nature. Each one of those either keeps the other members of its trio in check or created the members of its trio. Lugia on the other hand was only referenced in the game canon as tied to the legendary birds via Sea Spirit's Den, and otherwise, very much unrelated. Ho-Oh has absolutely nothing to do with the legendary beasts other than reviving them. Correct me if I'm wrong, but the three don't worship it, the three don't follow its commands, nor does anyone make a clear connection between the four. Arceus was the creator of the lake guardians and creation trio, but does that necessarily mean it itself is part of those trios? Like the prior examples, it is otherwise a standalone Pokemon with no common design/type/name themes. I think this page simply needs to be reworked rather than deleting it or considering it in its entirety as fanon.

== The page should stay... ==
I think that the page should stay, but it's only a personal opinion. The page might be mostly fanon, but it still contains a lot of canon information, such as how Arceus created the creation trio. --[[User:AngelicEspeon|AngelicEspeon]] ([[User talk:AngelicEspeon|talk]]) 20:18, 5 February 2017 (UTC)
== Are legendary pokemon mythos not goofy speculations? ==
From the beginning, Legendaries were for fun and challenge. The birds were hard to find, hard to catch. Should these beings not have higher authorities within their worlds? The idea of Mythical Pokémon being seperate from legendaries is mostly fan-founded as well! This page has a place, if only under meta or fandom.

:::::We can't leave it the way it is right now because it's wrong. The new Regis were already added to Regigigas' group in this article, making it a legendary ''quintet'' and thus unfitting for this page. I'd say our options are the following:

:::::b) We remove the whole group for now. If the DLC comes out and it gives us reason to reinstate them (Yeah right! Does anyone honestly believe that will happen?), we can re-add them later.
:::::c) Or we make a separate section called something like "Masters of former legendary trios" like we did with the Legendary trio article and move the Regis there.

:::Just because you have the most recent  post, it doesn't mean no one disagrees with you. There are thousands of pages on the wiki, you aren't always going to get a response right away. As I already stated, there have already been objections to removing from the article. We don't know the full relationship with Regieleki and Regidrago yet and irregardless of it, the original relationship is still there and should be given it's own section on the page vs full removal. --[[User:HoennMaster|<font color="blue">Hoenn</font>]][[User talk:HoennMaster|<font color="green">Master</font>]] 06:25, 15 July 2020 (UTC)
::::Except that none of those comments addressed my point. I pointed out that the article doesn't work the way it is right now, as it contradicts itself. In the starting paragraph it says that a trio master is "a Pokémon that, in some way, oversees a Legendary trio of Pokémon", yet the article clearly treats the Legendary Titans as a quintet, having already added the new Regis to it, rather waiting until the expansion comes out.
::::How much longer do you want me to wait for responses? If I bring up a problem with an article and offer a solution, then ''specifically ask people to speak up if they're against said solution'' and nobody says anything after a week, then I don't think I'm being unreasonable for taking their silence to mean that they have no issues with it. I can't read minds, the only way I can know if people have objections is if they post them.
::::And if you read one of my previous comments, I don't really care whether the Regis are removed or not, ''as long as the article is corrected''. We don't need to wait for the expansion to come out in order to see how self-contradictory the article is. Either remove the new Regis for now, remove the group altogether, or move it to a separate section for former Trio Masters. Either solution works for me. We can update it again once the expansion comes out. [[User:Golden Trainer|Golden Trainer]] ([[User talk:Golden Trainer|talk]]) 07:26, 15 July 2020 (UTC)
:::::This discussion seems to have escalated to a high level of animosity, but we can probably all calm down and not rush into things.
:::::About the topic at hand, all we know so far is that Rigice, Registeel and Regirock are a trio, and that Rigigigas is their master. And now two more regis are to be introduced. We don't know if they make a quintet with the previous trio, or a new trio with Regigigas, or whatever. The sensible thing to do, I think, would be keeping the page as it was before, without the new regis, with maybe a note about them saying their relation with the group is still unknown.
:::::To Golden Trainer, it's not unusual to have to wait for a response in the talk pages here. Some discussions may end up taking months or years, but not having new responses doesn't necessarily mean people agree, specially if there wasn't consensus before. I know it's not exactly pleasant to wait indefinetly, I too have been anoyed from similar situations, so I found that the best you can do is to ask for the intervention of an admin to try to settle things a bit quicker.

== Deletion ==
I am completely against with deleting the trio master page because it can be very interesting information for fans of old and new. ~~[[User: FeeBeePokemon2002]]~~ 10:20am, September 30 2020 (AEST)
I am in favor of deleting [[Legendary group|Trio Master]] and merging the info into [[Legendary group|Legendary trio]]. The current legendary trio page would benefit from a section explaining the connections between the trios and other Pokémon, and it would not require the use of the name "Trio Master" which is fanon.

== Expand/Rename/Merge to cover Legendary Groupings ==
So deleting the Regis from this article broke a number of comments on the article that refer to the Regis, and belies a history of Regigigas' relationship with the Regis as their Trio Master. They may be a Quintet now, but that doesn't mean there shouldn't be a role for discussing assymetrical Legendary relationships. We already saw in Gen VII that GameFreak is willing to break their normal rules and introduce Legendary Quartets instead. The Swords of Justice are another example: within normal gameplay, they're clearly a Legendary Trio but given Keldeo as a normally unobtainable in-game mythical Pokémon (not a Legendary by definition), they are considered a Quartet too. Could we merge Duos, Trios, and Trio Masters into a single article about the relationships of Legendaries & Mythicals and their overseer legendaries & mythicals? I believe that would be the most comprehensive response to the nuance of these matters given that GameFreak clearly documented in the games and anime and other material these overseers and relationships, but they're not necessarily Trios or Duos+Overseer or Trios+Overseer, or Duos without Overseer, etc. There's a lot of nuance. That's not reason for deletion, it IS reason to broaden rather than restrict the scope unnecessarily and cut out key parts of the article. Just like Rayquaza and Landorus oversee Duos, Regigigas oversees a Quintet. That's worth documenting and comparing against other overseers like Ho-oh and Arceus.

== Zygarde? ==
Shouldn't Zygarde also be listed? This one guards the ecosystem by overseeing the cycle of life (Xerneas) and death (Yveltal), and intervenes when the natural order is upset. Its ability and signature moves are also specifically designed to counter Xerneas and Yveltal. [[User:Golden Trainer|Golden Trainer]] ([[User talk:Golden Trainer|talk]]) 14:34, 26 May 2021 (UTC)
== Resolving Trio master Issue ==
Hi there. I made this to hopefully help resolve an issue that has been left unsolved since 2007/2014. I it is regarding this issue. I think of two good options. They will be listed bellow.
1. Keeping the page name by itself. It has its own unique identity and just because name is not official doesn't mean it real. Trio masters has been acknowledged by Game Freak and PIC through gameplay and story mode like for example Regigigas only appear an unlocked in presence for the Legendary titans. Hell Arceus counts given its mention it created two legendary trios.  Also is trio master still a good name, what fi we could renamed into something like Masters of Legendary and Mythical Pokemon Group. In a way, that could allowed Cobalion to be on page and as Pokemon has evolved to the point it is no longer about Trio having masters, even legendary pokemon duos have masters like the case with Calyrex.
2. If merged to the Legendary Trio as suggestion long in past, it needs to be unique or connected. Again, I would say it would have to be given its own separate section to why they are connected to Legendary trio and role. Its not like the page would be called Legendary trio and master. Would be repetitive. What name would work to reference both should merged be approved. Plus the merged page would need one huge expansions.
Hopefully these options I am giving could help resolve this and keep the page around or be reborn. Hope to your your thoughts and suggestion on how to improve and resolve.--[[User:Jacob9594|Jacob9594 ]] ([[User talk:Jacob9594|talk]]) 15:01, 26 October 2022 (UTC)
:There are other Legendary Pokémon that can meet the Masters list that is not a trio or are a trio. One example is Zygarde as its entries mentioned it will show should Xerneas and Yveltal get unbalanced, serving a trio master role. The pacemaker of Life and Destruction. Another one is Cobalion as its the leader and master of the other three Swords of Justice, given he is their leader and they follow it. Third example is Calyrex, as it is the master of Spectrier and Glastrier as its the only one who could tame and calm the legendary duo.
:Would it make more sense if they were also a legendary trio given all three are connected and meet trio requirements given Calyrex is like Necrozma/Kyurem, and the Legendary Steeds are like Solgaleo and Lunala/Rehsiram and Zekrom? Looking back, maybe the Trio master could be renamed into something more fitting like Masters of Legendary and Mythical Pokemon. Maybe after doing that fan terminology to help improve it or make it better?What would be the best option for this?--[[User:Jacob9594|Jacob9594 ]] ([[User talk:Jacob9594|talk]]) 14:22, 29 October 2022 (UTC)
::I have to agree with both this and an older topic by user Satosuke. The concept of a "Master" among a group of legends is somewhere between canon and fanon, and it'd be a waste to completely eliminate it. But Crown Tundra's introduction of Regileki and Regidrago makes it ''really'' hard to justify continuing to use the term "Trio" for all the others. What it may be time to do, in my opinion, is combine all the groupings into one super reference. The trios, the duos (Eon, Tower, Lunar, and the Cyclizar relatives), and now a [[Treasures of ruin|legendary quartet]] that has no "Master". All the mentions of a group of legends, regardless of quantity, generation, or presence of a "Master", could be plausibly covered in one article.

== Addressing Deletion ==
Guys, I don't think we should delete this article. It may not be fact, but it's still Pokémon-related lore, therefore serving as Pokémon-related information, which is the literal reason why Bulbapedia even exists. Do you really think we should delete it? [[User:Lugia+Ho-Oh|Lugia+Ho-Oh]] ([[User talk:Lugia+Ho-Oh|talk]]) 01:29, 20 April 2023 (UTC)
:I actually agree with deletion, since it's based on speculation and the criteria is unclear (what makes Rayquaza a trio master and not, say, Zygarde or Necrozma)? Any actual lore can be added to the respective trios' articles, while this vague term that doesn't even see wide use in the fandom in this day and age can be removed.

::Recent discussion seems to indicate that this page perhaps should be replaced with a general page about Relationships between Legendary and Mythical Pokémon (or a similar such title) [[User:Landfish7|<span style="font-family:Tahoma;color:#00d1bc">'''Land'''</span>]][[User talk:Landfish7|<span style="font-family:Tahoma;color:#006699"><small>'''fish7'''</small></span>]] 04:48, 14 August 2023 (UTC)
I don't think deleting this article would benefit categorization. The term trio master, even though speculative, is every bit logical, and for the first 2 generations, we see this formula exactly replicated. From generation 3 onwards, the "trio master" might be one of the members of the trio or an external legendary/mythical. We see Arceus as the master of the creation dragon trio(exclusive trio master) , and Rayquaza as the master of weather trio (inclusive trio master). For gen 5's tao trio, there is no trio master so as to say, but there are always such exceptions. In the same gen 5,we see the forces of nature, tornadus and thunderus get subdued by landorus who acts as the master of that group. Also notable is that landorus has a higher base stat total than the other forces of nature. After the inclusion of Pokemon Legends Arceus and the addition of enamorus to the group, Landorus still has the special position, has a higher BST and is seen as the leader of the group, fitting in with the theme of a trio master, so as to speak. Going on to generation 6,we see zygarde as the boss of the Aura trio, and Necrozma as the overpowering entity that dominates the light trio. In sword and shield, the legendaries are more complicated, and don't fit any structure, but if we got shadow lugia, the birds of Galar would finally have their master back... And now on to gen 9, it also doesn't have a designated trio master for the "lousy" Three, but the generation is far from completion.  [[User:Lucifer Lawliet|Lucifer Lawliet]] ([[User talk:Lucifer Lawliet|talk]]) 03:59, 19 September 2023 (UTC)
:Personally, I don't think the concept needs its own article, and could still be covered neatly in an overall article about Legendary groups or Relationships between Legendary and Mythical Pokémon or the like. Also, the term "Trio master" in this context leaves a bad taste in my mouth tbh.

::I support deletion of the article as well as deletion of the category of the same name. I don't believe adding another page is necessary, as each group of legendaries has a separate page, in addition to the Legendary Pokémon page, the Legendary Duo and Trio pages, and the Myths and legends involving Legendary and Mythical Pokémon page. The relevant information ought to be documented on existing pages. --[[User:Apopheniac|Apopheniac]] ([[User talk:Apopheniac|talk]]) 02:19, 23 September 2023 (UTC)
The point of bulbapedia articles is to study trends, analyse information regarding pokemon. This entire website is built by fans for fans, and the trio master concept is one that has been prominent for generations. As I noted earlier, the point of any online internet archive, rather any system of categorization is to clarify classification. The trio masters among the legends are dominant. That, is, therefore a way to classify these unique legendaries, and therefore, definitely scores to deserve an article. Also I'd like to request to not confuse personal feelings with facts for these very important articles. Trio master article deserves to stay, but if thr name feeld odd, we can discuss a name change.  [[User:Lucifer Lawliet|Lucifer Lawliet]] ([[User talk:Lucifer Lawliet|talk]]) 06:00, 19 September 2023 (UTC)
The previous discussion about "resolving the trio master issue" by @Jacob9594 has clearly stated two alternatives to solve this issue. And I, strongly, vehemently oppose the deletion of this article. I do agree with @landfish7 that we need a new page that highlights the relationship among different legendary pokemon groups and mythicals, but deleting this article would not really serve any purpose. We would need articles that link to the parent article about legendary pokemon relationships that describe all the different relationships in detail, unless we decide to put all of the information into one overcomplicated page of gargantuan proportions. By now we have duos, trios, qaurtets, quintets, and who knows, maybe even more such groups will evolve in the future. Instead of deletion, I'd like to propose this article be modified to denote the dominant legendary among groups, and the trio master serve as a category among those who constitute a trio.
Deleting an article about a well established concept is harmful towards classification, and I'd also like everyone to go read up @Jacob9594's discussion on the same topic previous to this conversation.  [[User:Lucifer Lawliet|Lucifer Lawliet]] ([[User talk:Lucifer Lawliet|talk]]) 07:40, 23 September 2023 (UTC)
:The concept is not "well-established", Lugia is only the "trio master" in the anime, which we have decided to stop focusing on, Ho-Oh created the legendary beasts, but has no active involvement in their activities. The "overseeing" part of the definition is violated three times versus being enforced four times. This page has no info that isn't on others and its deletion would do no harm. It's pure fanon.--[[User:MissDelibirda|MissDelibirda]] ([[User talk:MissDelibirda|talk]]) 17:16, 23 September 2023 (UTC)
It is not pure fanon actually. Lugia's case is often looked with little regard, and I understand that. But, a legendary trio, and thier master is a relationship that is often exhibited among Legendaries. Rayquaza, Ho-Oh, Landorus before gen 8,and Regigigas before gen 8 had played these roles. You'd need to go and catch the other members of the group before actually getting to the final "boss" of the group. Deleting this article would be absolutely inapt with regards to classification.  [[User:Lucifer Lawliet|Lucifer Lawliet]] ([[User talk:Lucifer Lawliet|talk]]) 17:25, 23 September 2023 (UTC)
