Blackjack Gabbiani: They have more of a legendary feel to them than the "legendary birds" who are just Big.

"Lugia wasn't even supposed to be in Gen 2" and yet it's still cooler than everything else around it Hmmmm

I'll also just readily admit every time I hear "but the new ones are relevant to the Plot" I roll my eyes hard because Ah yes the riveting Plot of a Pokemon game Environmental storytelling in these titles is far better imo

Also, for as much as I adore Koraidon It and Miraidon aren’t really “legendaries” or at least they don’t feel like it. They’re just paradox forms of a common pokemon (Cyclizar). The likes of Lugia and Ho-Oh have actual legends around them, haha

Gotta disagree there, feels like the 5 birds have a lot of setup, ESPECIALLY the Johto birds. They both get their own dungeons and plenty of NPC dialogue.
