Rotom isn't a legendary. Neither is Spiritomb (you can breed them with gengars to make more Spiritombs) speaking of which I have a spare spiritomb egg if anyone wants one.

Rotom would be more fit to be called an uber instead of a Legendary

Melody July 3rd, 2007 9:50 PM

Rotom isnt legendary. It's just rare. Same with Spiritomb. It's rare. It can only be found in the wild in 1 place.

I don't really consider Rotom a legendary. It's just a rare pokemon that has the legendary battle theme and is right next to the other legendaries in the D/P pokédex. His stats and breeding ability just don't fit the legendary criteria.

I told that before, stats don't make the real difference. Check what I said, please

Rotom is pretty much a semi-legend.
Legend Reasons:
1. Legend Music/Screen
2. Elusive
3. Type (No Electric/Ghosts I know of 'sides it.)

Non-Legend Reasons:
1. Breedable
2. More than one
3. Non-Legend Stats

I would say that Rotom is pretty hard to hit for a Lv. 15. Poke.

Well, I would believe legendaries would be spoken about in game. If I remember correctly, no NPC actually said anything about Rotom, if at some did, well then I don't read enough. But that's contradicted because I haven't seen any NPC say anything about Shaymin, if I'm wrong, sorry. Unless Shaymin is only mentioned when we are able to get it. I believe Rotom is just an exclusive Pokemon, that's unlocked by an event. Such as Spiritomb and Lucario. Though, it having the legendary music just throws me off. I wouldn't know why. (From what I read, turned off my music when I was catching it)

Also, PokeWarped, are you stating that legendaries have different types from all Pokemon, if you're not, I probably just interpreted incorrectly. Palkia is a Water/Dragon, correct? Isn't Kingdra the same type as Palkia? Rotom just has a unique type is all.

i think it's just another on of a kind that can breed so it belongs with castform!
