what is it with new pokemon and making shit needlessly complicated? >legendary and mythical pokemon are two different thingsok that makes sense I guess>But phione isn't either.so it's a normal pokemon?>no it was born from a mythical so it technically is but it isn't but we aren't gonna tell you what it actually is because we don't even know and phione doesn't evolve into manaphy it's it's own species entirelysee it's always shit like that like the ultra beast aren't pokemon debate or the imagination vs time travel thing in scarlet and violet

>>56904367Phione was purposely made to be ambiguous.>see it's always shit like that like the ultra beast aren't pokemon debate or the imagination vs time travel thing in scarlet and violetLike 90% of the debates we have are about already solved shit that has an actual explanation that people choose to ignore in favor of poketuber headcanon.The franchise is way simplier than most think it is.
>>56904367a pokemon is a pokémon as long as it debuted in a true Pokémon game rather than a spinoff. The only people that disagree with that fact are placucks
>>56904367Phione is a semi-mythical.
>>56904367Phione isn't really complicated at all when you stop and think about it from outside your little pre-defined definitions of what a Pokemon should be. it's autists who need everything to fit into neat little boxes that make it more complicated than it should be. mind you, GF does reinforce the autists, but still. legendary/mythical is just terminology, it's not the divine law of the universe.
>>56904367>see it's always shit like that like the ultra beast aren't pokemon debate or the imagination vs time travel thing in scarlet and violetThe problem is that you people like to over complicate things.
>>56904367Phione is the only retarded exception. I have no fucking clue why you brought up paradoxes. They don't have anything to do with that.
>>56904367>gen 4 and 5 legendaries/mythicals were a mistakeYeahNothing complicated about ultra beasts and paradoxmons though, they're basically just a new class of extra pokemon with a shared theme to bridge the divide between premium mons and the riffraff. High but sub-legendary BSTs with potentially unique typings and strong abilities. Obviously they're premium mons in their own right and the best among them are legendaries really but Iron Thorns isn't Kyogre and can be caught roaming around
