>Shadow versions of the Mirage Trio are canon>Shadow Lugia isn'tHow did they fumble this so bad?
>>59657495surely the galarian forms of the birds should have different namesherere we have ARTICuno, the *checks notes* ...psychic type pokemon....
>>59657513They were named as such because of their resemblance to the Kantonian birds, not because of an actual lineage. G-Articuno freezes with a psychic glare, G-Zapdos runs at the speed of a lightning bolt, and G-Moltres burns with shadowy flames.
>>59657525in which case they are convergent species, not regional forms of the same species.they should have their own names and dex numbers.
>>59657543Game Freak is so stupid they don't know the rules of their own universe. But you can't blame them, tney are a small indie company and Pokemon makes no money. They're just little guyz, so don't be meen.
>>59657495>Shadow Lugia isn'tIt's just from a distant land.

>>59657543I agree, but they were made at a point before Game Freak conceived of convergent species and were used to regional forms.
>>59657543In Palworld they handle this by giving them another name.Thus they would be the Noct forms of their name.
>>59657630>Gamefreak are so retarded they accidentally repeated the Nidoran and Nidoran mistakethese are the people the "I'll buy two versions just for you :)" crowd pay
>>59657495Shadow Lugia should have Shadow Shield/Tinted Lens abilities and have its stats be completely offensively oriented to align with it being completely deranged.HP: 106Attk: 130Def: 90S.A: 154S.D: 90Spe: 110BST: 680
>>59657495because you are now realizing that Lugia is an absolute 'nothing' Legendary. The birds were tacked on, it really does just have nothing. Which honestly is fine, but I'm still going to make fun of it because of how much history Ho-oh has. I think it's even funnier that Pokemon Legends Ho-oh was gonna happen. Despite how much fans love Lugia there is definitely people on the inside that hate it
>>59657495who. cares.
