    Many Pokemon, when they first came out, were mistaken as a legendary Pokemon. Topping the list are Lucario, because of the decepting 7th movie, and Absol, because of it's powerful stature and ability to predict disasters. Is this all a load of bologna, or am I not the only one who used to think Lucario was a rare legendary and Rotom too?

    I thought Lucario was legendary, too.

    I think, a long, long time ago, I thought Snorlax was at one point. XD

    Arcanine...because it seemed like a Legendary and it's species name thing is "Legendary".

    Oh, and Lucario. Until I saw it's stats.

    The first time I saw Absol in Ruby, I though it was a legendary, simply because it looked like one :P I think it's one of the coolest pokemon from that generation.

    Well, I did think Absol was some sort of special Pokemon, but I didn't think it was legendary.
    Lucario on the other hand, I thought it was going to be legendary due to all the hype about it before it was really known.

    It's still an awesome Pokemon, Legendary or not, though.

    Lucario is really the only Pokemon I can think of where I thought it was Legendary.

    Lucario Deception

    The 7th movie really ticks me off. Lucario is not legendary in any way, and yet in the movie, they treat him as a god. The 7th movie is nothing more then a deception to all Pokemon collectors, but it is a decent movie.

    My brother and I thought Golduck was a legendary. We used our Master Ball on it.

    Blaziken.
    Back when there weren't many 3rd gen Pokemon revealed, it just looked so legendary like to me. I also think one Pokemon site was speculating that it might in fact be a legendary.
