I personally would not consider it legendary. But really most legendaries are only proclaimed legendary by fans, so really who knows?
|
We are fans. The point of the thread is to decide.

You realize the greatest speakers of all time used repetition? Though the 1 a game thing was an accident...
You never rested any case really. Most of what I said wasn't even aimed at you, but at the formula in general. In that sense, you took it out of context. for example, you immediately assume I want Nintendo to shut down pokemon. I, for one, don't really appreciate that. Notice OTHER people were moaning about the stats, assuming this is all aimed at you is pretty bogus. And yes, Regirock would be legendary. After all, you can catch and transfer tons of any legendary pokemon from one game to another. And once again, how is this formula is any way official? the game doesn't even have a definition of legendaries, making a formula up and then declaring something legendary or not legendary proves what? |
Ok you're asking for it now.

Who cares? It's cute, an offspring of a Legendary, not powerful, and has the same base stats of Glalie. I personally think it's a Legendary, but I'd appreciate if you didn't use phrases like "You're going to get it now" or "You're asking for it now." Threats are not cool Minos Yewman. kthanxbai

Sorry, its late and I'm not thinking right.

And you can catch Lapras only once is GSC, it's not a legendary. Just because I think Nintendo has made too many pokemon doesn't mean I want them to shut things down, my point stands. And it's YOUR formula, YOUR opinion. If I disagree with it, don't go "well teh are ask1ng for it nowz0rz!!!" And I think Loquacity's post just kind of ended the argument anyways... |
I said I'm sorry!!! I realise that I have been wrong in certain situations. I also realise that everyone is entitled to their own opinion. I simply want to find out what other people think.
|
okey if you think manaphy is not legendary then you dont think phion is since manaphy is legendary phion is. but people have different opinions about it.
|
ok i am pretty sure that phione IS legendary. my point is that you need a ranger event to get Manaphy and u need him to get phione so thearetically you need an event to get phione, ummmmmmm, does anyone get my point?
|
I disagree with many here...
Phione in my eyes is a legendary Pokemon, yes stats are below mediorce, you can get it countless times...but that doesn't deture it's label from gamefreak as 'legendary'. Though those are fine ways to label a legend. As many of the uber tier, are legendary. Though think about it, Manaphy IS legendary, even in the Pokemon dot com mailbag they confirm that, along with rotom not being legendary, anyways...manaphy is legendary so how can it's offspring not be, for your information, YOU look like your parents, have traits of them and probably are in some cass exactly like them in ways... Phione doesn't have that power, that folk lore story...yet its parent, is legendary, picture this. Manaphy in the sea to it's legendary palace "home". phione is with it, and say we lived in a Pokemon world for a minute. Say you cuaght a phione, as a fisher when are you just going to go "meh, it's a phione". (like a magikarp) no! your going to be excited that you got a phione that would be rare in the pokemon world and comes from a legend. Remember folks, we ARE in a pokemon world, we're in the game... I think all this "oh its stats are low" is a bunch of you know. In the perpective of you playing a video game your looking at it wrong. Take the perpective of it in the world. You think you'll see a bagillion phione in the sea, No. Phione to me, is classified as a legend to it's rarity IN WORLD perpective. I believe if the parent is legend, so is the child, as the child CAME from the parent, thus being it's status. Phione is depicted as an angel in the sea, are angels to you common and normal like everyone else? I dont think so... In the battle real world perpective, phione is banned from the sinnoh battle tower, hmmmm....think of that? But alas, just my opinion...great discussion, thank you for making this thread. I enjoyed it. So you know, we could create an in-between zone, over normal under 'perfect' legendary, idk just a thought.... |

I understand that it's your opinion, I just wanted to point some stuff out. No offense to you, of course. |
nah, i don't count phione as anything even remotely legendary.
i count it as a normal pokemon, i mean, sure you can't catch it in the wild, but you can't do that with riolu's, either, or starters. or a ot of the pre-evolved and evolved forms of older pokemon (like bonsly and magmortar) but i have to stop rambilng. phione doesn't qualify as legendary to me, end of chain. Now, I'm off To Break into The Elder Scrolls Library. |
IMO, Unown, Rotom, and Phione are "Semi-Legendary"
-Unown is obviously not a normal Pokemon, they mabye should even have its own classification. It's Genderless, Cannot Breed nor Evolve, Are exclusive to ancient ruins where no other species can be found, and have mysterious connections to Suicune and Ho-oh (NOT ENTEI. Anime =/= Cannon) -Rotom has no gender and cannot evolve, but can breed with ditto. If it wasn't a Semi-Legendary, it wouls be the only non-sinnoh dex 4th gen Pokemon that was neither a new Evolution nor a Legendery. Not to mention the same song for the likes of Heatran, Regigigas, Girantina, ect. is played. -Phione can only be originally obtained by breeding Manaphy, a Legendary. It has no gender and cannot evolve, but, like Rotom, can breed. These three aren't truley Legendary, but they certainly aren't your average Pokemon. |

-- Genderless -- Only one -- Unbreedable -- Does not evolve, has no preevolution -- #479 is pretty far down the line, sir. Rotom is hell not Legendary, sorry. Edit: Whoops, didn't see second page, sorry about that. For the sake of being more on topic, here's another example: Metagross -- Genderless -- Only one (well, not in D/P) -- Unbreedable -- Evolves from Metang -- Within the last ten of Hoenndex Using your definition of Legendary, this means that some Pokemon which were "legendary" previously became non-legendary, since something in that species changes, such as how you could only catch two Snorlaxes per game, but now you can catch unlimited Munchlaxes and evolve them. I don't think you can put a solid definition on "Legendary". |
Quote:
Of the three I mentioned, Unown has the most legendary qualities. |
Metagross can breed with ditto. I have a Beldum I bred from my Metagross that I am EV training in attack (I don't use EVs much but at the thought of an overpowered Metagross I gave in.)

I said until Emerald because that was the ONLY R/S/E game (not counting the Gen I remakes) to have Ditto being a catchable character. usually people don't attempt to trade with other games unless it is their version's counterpart, and since the National Dex was only created when FR/LG came out (In-game I mean, since, technically, the National Dex was first used in guidebooks from Gen II, but you didn't acquire it in-game until FR/LG.). I think that was what Gymnotide was making his point about in his statement of Metagross being unbreedable, since although it is technically breedable, it was virtually impossible to acquire a ditto before Emerald that it seemed as though it was unbreedable. |
I guess it's not legendarie, but just because you can get many Phiones on the game.
|
Hey, its currently NOT LEGENDARY by 2 votes (so close).
|
well, you know what? i think phione is a legendary pokemon. If you look in your freaking pokedex, you'll see that all the pokemon near manaphy are legendaries. and phione cant evolve or breed. so, yes, it is a legendary.
|
It has been put near Manaphy because you breed to get it. This is the case with all pokemon except for the GSC pre-eveolutions.
