Just because dex entries tend to spout BS doesn't mean you can conveniently assume that they all do - so-called "BS" dex entries make outlandish claims, like Combusken and its ten kicks per second... Latias travelling in herds is perfectly feasible and not an example of this "BS". Anyway, your point that because there's only one obtainable in the wild to a player there must only be one in existence is undermined by several in-game instances - by your logic, there were only two Snorlax to exist in Generation I. Moreover, stating that trainers having legendary Pokémon is "just a case of being what it is" is vague and doesn't hold much weight. Yes, trainers with these Pokémon are typically within battle facilities and appear randomly in the case of trainers who aren't Frontier Brains... but what about Benga in BW2? Your battle with him, in which he uses a Legendary Pokémon, is acknowledged outside the facility in which it takes place. Therefore the battle happened and his Pokémon team wasn't just "what it was" (i.e. for the purpose of providing the player with the challenge). But the bottom line is that the way the trivia is written suggests that the speculation on the author's part is fact, when there is insufficient evidence and no confirmation for this being the case. Like Slimey01 said, Bulbapedia's policy is to be based on information that has been confirmed. Anyway, have a nice day. Here is an Eevee. --[[User:Da real dat boi|Da real dat boi]] ([[User talk:Da real dat boi|talk]]) 18:19, 21 July 2016 (UTC)

I agree that we should remove the trivia for whatever my opinion's worth (which doesn't seem to be much). [[User:Nutter Butter|Nutter Butter]] ([[User talk:Nutter Butter|talk]]) 18:45, 21 July 2016 (UTC)
