'''Pseudo-legendary Pokémon''' is a fan term commonly used to refer to any Pokémon that has a three-stage [[evolution]] line, two [[type]]s, [[Experience#Slow|1,250,000 experience at level 100]], and a [[base stats|base stat]] total of exactly {{cat|Pokémon with a base stat total of 600|600}}. The term originates from the prefix ''pseudo-'', which means "false". Pseudo-legendary Pokémon are often more powerful than other non-[[legendary Pokémon]], possibly due to their high base stats.

'''Pseudo-legendary Pokémon''' is a [[Appendix:Fan terminology|fan term]] referring to a group of [[Pokémon (species)|Pokémon]] that meet the following criteria:
*The Pokémon is the final stage of a three-stage [[evolution]]ary line.
*The Pokémon has a [[base stats|base stat]] total of exactly {{cat|Pokémon with a base stat total of 600|600}} (before [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolving]]).
*The Pokémon [[level]]s up at a [[Experience#Slow|slow rate]] (requiring 1,250,000 [[Experience|experience points]] to reach level 100).
 
Pseudo-legendary Pokémon are often more powerful than most other non-{{pkmn2|Legendary}} or [[Mythical Pokémon]] due to their high base stats. Due to their slow leveling rates and their relatively high [[List of Pokémon that evolve at or above a certain level|evolutionary levels]], they also tend to be difficult to raise.
 
The pseudo-legendary Pokémon were featured in the "[https://www.facebook.com/Pokemon.official.Singapore/posts/2430759250584323 Late Bloomers]" (Japanese: '''大器晩成''' ''[https://web.archive.org/web/20191208020557/https://www.pokemon.co.jp/info/2019/10/191011_p02.html Taiki-Bansei]'') and "[https://www.pokemoncenter.com/search/powerhouse Powerhouse Pokémon]" collections of {{OBP|Pokémon Center|store}} merchandise.
 
In Japanese fan communities, especially in the competitive scene, the similar term {{ja|600族|'''600{{ruby|族|ぞく}}''' ''600 club''}} refers to all Pokémon that have a base stat total of 600 that are not Legendary Pokémon, Mythical Pokémon, or Mega Evolutions. This classification includes all pseudo-legendary Pokémon, but it also includes {{p|Archaludon}}, which is excluded from the definition of pseudo-legendary Pokémon among western fans.

==Characteristics==
==In the games==
With the exception of the {{p|Garchomp}} and {{p|Hydreigon}} evolutionary lines, pseudo-legendary Pokémon are usually situated adjacent to the [[legendary trio]]s in the [[Pokédex]]es of their respective [[generation]]s. In both the [[National Pokédex]] and [[List of Pokémon by Johto Pokédex number|Johto Pokédex]], the evolutionary lines of {{p|Dragonite}} and {{p|Tyranitar}} are located just after the [[legendary trio]] of their respective Generation (they are located next to each other in the Johto Pokédex). Similarly, the {{p|Salamence}} and {{p|Metagross}} lines are located next to each other right before the [[legendary golems]] in both the National Pokédex and [[List of Pokémon by Hoenn Pokédex number|Hoenn Pokédex]]. Oddly, this tradition was not upheld in [[Generation IV]], as the Garchomp [[evolution]] line is situated next to no notable Pokémon. In [[Generation V]], the Hydreigon line is located next to the {{p|Volcarona}} line, which is adjacent to the legendary Pokémon.

Pseudo-legendary Pokémon usually have {{stat|Attack}} as their highest stat. This is not the case with Hydreigon, which has {{stat|Special Attack}} as its highest stat. Their respective base evolutions' base stat total are {{cat|Pokémon with a base stat total of 300|300}}, while their second stage' base stat total are {{cat|Pokémon with a base stat total of 420|420}}, excluding {{p|Pupitar}} and {{p|Gabite}}, which have {{cat|Pokémon with a base stat total of 410|410}}.

==Trivia==
* All pseudo-legendary Pokémon share the same base number of [[Egg cycle]]s, 40, which is the highest number of Egg cycles for any Pokémon (excluding Pokémon in the {{egg3|No Eggs Discovered}}).
* [[Generation II]] is the only generation to not introduce a {{type|Dragon}} pseudo-legendary Pokémon.
* [[Generation III]] is the only generation to introduce more than one pseudo-legendary Pokémon, as it introduced both Salamence and Metagross.
** However, in [[Generation VIII]], a new [[regional form]] for Goodra was introduced in [[Pokémon Legends: Arceus]], alongside Dragapult's introduction in {{g|Sword and Shield}}.
* The unevolved forms of all pseudo-legendary Pokémon (that existed at the time) are available in the [[Johto Safari Zone]].
* Among Pokémon commonly mistaken for pseudo-legendary Pokémon are {{p|Slaking}}, {{p|Aggron}}, {{p|Flygon}}, {{p|Haxorus}}, {{p|Volcarona}}, and {{p|Archaludon}}. For one reason or another, these Pokémon do not fit the criteria to be classified as pseudo-legendary Pokémon.


===Individual characteristics===
===Individual characteristics===
====Dragonite====
====Dragonite====
Aside from being the first pseudo-legendary Pokémon in [[National Pokédex]] order, Dragonite has the highest Special Defense tied with Tyranitar.
* Dragonite was the first pseudo-legendary Pokémon.


====Tyranitar====
====Tyranitar====
Tyranitar is the only pseudo-legendary Pokémon that can neither fly nor levitate, as well as the slowest of the pseudo-legendary Pokémon. When a {{weather|sandstorm}} is raging, Tyranitar's {{stat|Special Defense}} becomes the highest of all pseudo-legendary Pokémon.
* Mega Tyranitar has the highest base {{stat|Defense}} of all pseudo-legendary Pokémon, with 150.
* During a sandstorm, Mega Tyranitar's Special Defense becomes the highest of all pseudo-legendary Pokémon.
* Tyranitar is the only pseudo-legendary Pokémon that has a [[List of Pokémon with unique type combinations|unique type combination]], and is also the only pseudo-legendary Pokémon weak to both {{t|Ground}} and {{t|Fairy}}


====Salamence====
====Salamence====
Physically, Salamence is the shortest pseudo-legendary Pokémon. Salamence has the lowest defenses of all pseudo-legendary Pokémon. However, it has the highest Attack (tied with Metagross).
* Salamence is the [[List of Pokémon by height|shortest]] pseudo-legendary Pokémon, at 4'11" (1.5 m).


====Metagross====
====Metagross====
Metagross has a large number of characteristics which are different from the other pseudo-legendary Pokémon. This is likely due to how it is the only pseudo-legendary Pokémon that does not appear to be based on a reptile; rather, it is a robotic life form. This is likely why Metagross is the only pseudo-legendary Pokémon not to be used by [[Lance]] in any game, as he prefers {{type|Dragon}} and draconic Pokémon.
* Metagross is the [[List of Pokémon by weight|heaviest]] pseudo-legendary Pokémon, at 1212.5 lbs. (550.0 kg).
 
* Metagross has the highest base Defense of all non-Mega Evolved pseudo-legendary Pokémon, at 130.
Metagross is the only genderless pseudo-legendary Pokémon, and the only pseudo-legendary Pokémon whose first stage of evolution, {{p|Beldum}}, cannot be caught in the wild in its debut generation (one is received from [[Steven Stone]] instead). Metagross and its pre-evolutions have a [[catch rate]] of 3 (all the other pseudo-legendary Pokémon families have a catch rate of 45), and it has the highest base Defense of all the pseudo-legendary Pokémon. Metagross is also the only pseudo-legendary in the super-heavyweight class.
* Metagross is the only [[gender unknown]] pseudo-legendary Pokémon.
* Metagross is the only pseudo-legendary Pokémon whose first evolutionary stage, {{p|Beldum}}, cannot be caught in the [[Wild Pokémon|wild]] in its debut [[generation]] (one is [[Gift Pokémon|received]] from [[Steven Stone]] instead).
* Metagross is the only pseudo-legendary Pokémon whose English and Japanese names are the same.
* Metagross is the only pseudo-legendary Pokémon that cannot learn any {{type|Dragon}} [[move]]s.


====Garchomp====
====Garchomp====
Garchomp is the only pseudo-legendary Pokémon to have [[List of Pokémon with gender differences|gender differences]], as well as having the fewest resistances. It is the fastest with a base {{stat|Speed}} stat of 102 and has the highest base {{stat|HP}}, with 108. It is also the lightest pseudo-legendary Pokémon.
* Mega Garchomp has the highest base Attack of all pseudo-legendary Pokémon, with 170.
* Garchomp is the only pseudo-legendary Pokémon to have [[List of Pokémon with gender differences|gender differences]].


====Hydreigon====
====Hydreigon====
Due to being the only pseudo-legendary Pokémon to have a higher {{stat|Special Attack}} stat than {{stat|Attack}}, Hydreigon's stats give it a number of unique characteristics from the other pseudo-legendary Pokémon. Consequently, it has the highest base Special Attack of all the pseudo-legendary Pokémon, and likewise, the lowest base Attack of all the pseudo-legendary Pokémon. Similarly, it is the only pseudo-legendary Pokémon that does not have a base stat over 125, but it is also the only pseudo-legendary Pokémon that does not have a base stat under 90.
* Hydreigon has the highest base Special Attack of all pseudo-legendary Pokémon, with 125.
* Hydreigon is the only pseudo-legendary Pokémon that does not have a base stat lower than 90.
* Hydreigon and its evolutionary relatives are the only pseudo-legendary family that do not have a [[Hidden Ability]] in any of their forms.
* Hydreigon evolves from its pre-evolved form starting at the highest [[level]] of all pseudo-legendary Pokémon, at level 64.


Hydreigon is the only pseudo-legendary Pokémon with multiple elemental immunities (however its immunity to {{t|Ground}} is due to its Ability, {{a|Levitate}}). Of the {{type|Dragon}} pseudo-legendary Pokémon, it is the only one not to have a 4× weaknesses to {{type|Ice}} attacks.
====Goodra====
* Goodra is the only pseudo-legendary Pokémon that is not dual-type.
* Tied with its [[regional form]], Goodra has both the highest base Special Defense of all pseudo-legendary Pokémon, with 150, and the lowest base Attack of all pseudo-legendary Pokémon, with 100.
* Goodra has the lowest base Defense of all pseudo-legendary Pokémon, with 70.
* Goodra and its Hisuian form are the only pseudo-legendary Pokémon to have an [[Methods of Evolution|evolutionary method]] requiring more than just leveling up.


====Other====
=====Hisuian Goodra=====
* Tyranitar and Hydreigon are the only pseudo-legendary Pokémon that have a [[List of Pokémon with unique type combinations|unique type combination]].
* Tied with its original form, Hisuian Goodra has both the highest base Special Defense of all pseudo-legendary Pokémon, with 150, and the lowest base Attack of all pseudo-legendary Pokémon, with 100.
* {{p|Metagross}} and Hydreigon are the only pseudo-legendary Pokémon that do not have any 4× weaknesses.
* Hisuian Goodra has the lowest base Speed of all pseudo-legendary Pokémon, with 60.
* Salamence and Metagross have the highest {{stat|Attack}} of all pseudo-legendary Pokémon with a base 135 stat.
* Tyranitar and Metagross are the only pseudo-legendary Pokémon that are not Dragon-type.


==In the games==
====Kommo-o====
These Pokémon are used in-game often by the members of the [[Elite Four]] and {{pkmn|Champion}}s. {{p|Dragonite}} is used by [[Lance]], the final Elite Four member in [[Generation I]] and {{v2|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}; it is used again by Lance as the Champion in [[Generation II]] and {{v2|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}. In HeartGold and SoulSilver, Lance uses a {{p|Dragonite}}, but when he is [[rematch|battled again]], he replaces two of his three Dragonite with the two other {{type|Dragon}} pseudo-legendary Pokémon, {{p|Salamence}} and {{p|Garchomp}}. {{p|Tyranitar}} is also used by Lance in [[Pokémon Stadium 2]] (both Round 1 and 2), as well as by {{ga|Blue}}, the Champion, but only in the second round of the Elite Four in FireRed and LeafGreen. {{p|Salamence}} is used by {{EF|Drake}}, the final Elite Four member in {{3v2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}}. {{p|Metagross}} is used by [[Steven Stone]], the Champion in Ruby and Sapphire, and ex-Champion in {{v2|Emerald}}. It is also used by [[Caitlin]] during her rematch. {{p|Garchomp}} is used by [[Cynthia]], the Champion in {{3v2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}. {{p|Hydreigon}} is used by [[Ghetsis]], who serves as the final boss in {{2v2|Black|White}}, as well as [[Iris]], the Champion in {{2v2|Black 2|White 2}}
* Kommo-o has the lowest base HP of all pseudo-legendary Pokémon, with 75.
* Kommo-o is the only pseudo-legendary Pokémon with an [[Signature move|exclusive]] [[Z-Move]], {{m|Clangorous Soulblaze}}.


Although pseudo-legendary Pokémon are used almost exclusively by the final members of the [[Elite Four]] and {{pkmn|Champion}}s, there are three minor exceptions in {{3v|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}: {{tc|Ace Trainer}} Felix on {{rt|229|Sinnoh}} uses {{p|Salamence}}, and {{tc|Ace Trainer}} Jamie on {{rt|224|Sinnoh}} has {{p|Metagross}}, serving as cameo appearances for the movie characters [[Butler]] and {{mov|Rebecca}}, who used these pseudo-legendary Pokémon in their respective {{pkmn|movie}}s. {{tc|Dragon Tamer}} Darien, who is located outside of [[Stark Mountain]], uses a Dragonite, but is not related to any movies.
====Dragapult====
* Dragapult is the tallest pseudo-legendary Pokémon, at 9'10" (3.0 m).
* Dragapult is the lightest pseudo-legendary Pokémon, at 110.2 lbs. (50.0 kg).
* Dragapult has the lowest base Special Defense of all pseudo-legendary Pokémon, with 75.
* Dragapult has the highest base Speed of all pseudo-legendary Pokémon, with 142.


Pseudo-legendary Pokémon are obtainable in the wild strictly in their first form for the first two games of their Generation. However, {{p|Dragonair}} is obtainable in the wild in most games where {{p|Dratini}} is (all but {{3v2|Red|Green|Blue}}). Likewise, {{p|Pupitar}} is available in the wild in {{v2|Crystal}} and {{v2|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}. {{p|Gabite}} is also found in {{si|Victory Road}} in {{v2|Platinum}}. {{p|Metang}} and {{p|Shelgon}} can also be found in the {{safari|Johto}} in {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}. In {{game|Black and White|s}}, {{p|Larvitar}}, {{p|Beldum}}, {{p|Shelgon}}, {{p|Salamence}}, the entire {{p|Garchomp}} line, {{p|Zweilous}} and {{p|Hydreigon}} are the only stages that cannot be caught in the wild. For the first time, final stages of pseudo-legendary Pokémon can be caught in the wild.
====Baxcalibur====
* Baxcalibur has the highest base HP of all pseudo-legendary Pokémon, with 115.
* Baxcalibur has the highest base Attack of all non-Mega Evolved pseudo-legendary Pokémon, with 145.
* Baxcalibur has the lowest base Special Attack of all pseudo-legendary Pokémon, with 75.
* Baxcalibur is the only pseudo-legendary Pokémon whose evolutionary line has different [[catch rate]]s for each Pokémon (excluding {{p|Dragonite}} in {{game|Yellow}}).
* As of [[Generation IX]], Baxcalibur is the only pseudo-legendary Pokémon to have a [[signature Ability]], namely {{a|Thermal Exchange}}. However, {{a|Sand Stream}} and {{a|Gooey}} were formerly the signature Abilities of Tyranitar and Goodra respectively.


===As Shadow Pokémon===
====Other characteristics====
In story mode of [[Pokémon Colosseum]], {{pkmn2|Shadow}} {{p|Metagross}} is used by [[Nascour]] and Shadow {{p|Tyranitar}} is used by [[Evice]]; it is notable that the two [[Cipher]] leaders have positions comparable to those of the final [[Elite Four]] member and {{pkmn|Champion}}, respectively. {{Pokémon XD}} complemented the list of pseudo-legendarary Pokémon as of [[Generation III]] by featuring Shadow {{p|Salamence}} (used by [[Eldes]]) and Shadow {{p|Dragonite}} (used by [[Miror B.]]). Another commonality is that all four pseudo-legendary Pokémon have {{m|Shadow Rush}} as one of their Shadow moves.
* Metagross and Hisuian Goodra resist the most types of all pseudo-legendary Pokémon, with nine.
* Garchomp and Baxcalibur resist the fewest types of all pseudo-legendary Pokémon, with only three.
* Goodra (in its original form), Kommo-o, and Baxcalibur are the only pseudo-legendary Pokémon that do not have a type immunity by default. However, these three all have some immunities via other means:
** Goodra has access to {{a|Sap Sipper}}, which provides an immunity to {{type|Grass}} moves.
** Kommo-o has immunities to [[:Category:Moves by usage method|certain groups of moves]] through all three of its Abilities (specifically [[:Category:Ball and bomb moves|ball and bomb moves]] with {{a|Bulletproof}}, [[:Category:Sound-based moves|sound-based moves]] with {{a|Soundproof}}, and [[:Category:Powder and spore moves|powder and spore moves]] with {{a|Overcoat}}).
** Baxcalibur is immune to {{m|Sheer Cold}} due to being {{type|Ice}}. {{a|Thermal Exchange}} grants it an immunity to being [[Burn (status condition)|burned]].
* Dragapult and Baxcalibur are the only pseudo-legendary Pokémon whose unevolved forms ({{p|Dreepy}} and {{p|Frigibax}}, respectively) do not have a base stat total of 300.
* Metagross and Baxcalibur are the only pseudo-legendary Pokémon to not have a [[catch rate]] of 45, instead having catch rates of 3 and 10 respectively.

==Trivia==
* [[Generation III]] is the only generation so far to have introduced more than one pseudo-legendary Pokémon.
* All pseudo-legendary Pokémon that existed at the time were available as [[Shadow Pokémon]] in either [[Pokémon Colosseum]] (Tyranitar and Metagross) or {{Pokémon XD}} (Dragonite and Salamence).
* Among Pokémon commonly mistaken for pseudo-legendary Pokémon are {{p|Slaking}}, {{p|Flygon}}, {{p|Aggron}}, {{p|Volcarona}}, and {{p|Haxorus}}. For one reason or another, these Pokémon do not fit the criteria of those above and so are not pseudo-legendary Pokémon.
** Slaking, though not pseudo-legendary, has the highest base stats of all non-legendary Pokémon. However, it lacks a base-stat total of 600 and a secondary type. Slaking's high stats are likely due to being hindered by its Ability, {{a|Truant}}.
* {{Ash}} is the first main character in the anime to own [[Ash's Gible|a member]] of a pseudo-legendary family; however, it could be considered his second if {{AP|Larvitar}} is counted, but he only cared for it temporarily.
* The first stage of five of the six pseudo-legendary Pokémon are available in [[Generation IV]]'s [[Johto Safari Zone]].
* {{p|Tyranitar}} is the only pseudo-legendary Pokémon that is not the main Pokémon of a major boss at the end of the game it was introduced in: {{p|Dragonite}} is used by [[Lance]], {{p|Salamence}} by {{EF|Drake}}, Metagross by [[Steven Stone]], {{p|Garchomp}} by [[Cynthia]], and {{p|Hydreigon}} by [[Ghetsis]] and [[Iris]].
** However, Tyranitar was used by {{ga|Blue}} in [[Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen Versions]], but only in the [[rematch]].
* {{p|Metagross}} is the only pseudo-legendary Pokémon that doesn't share at least one type with another pseudo-legendary Pokémon. It is also the only pseudo-legendary Pokémon that cannot learn any {{type|Dragon}} moves.
* Every pseudo-legendary Pokémon is immune to at least one [[type]]: {{p|Dragonite}} to {{t|Ground}}, {{p|Tyranitar}} to {{t|Psychic}}, {{p|Metagross}} to {{t|Poison}}, {{p|Salamence}} to {{t|Ground}}, {{p|Garchomp}} to {{t|Electric}}, and {{p|Hydreigon}} to {{t|Psychic}} and {{t|Ground}}.
** However, Hydreigon's immunity to Ground-type moves is due to its Ability, {{a|Levitate}} rather than due to its type.


*Garchomp is the only pseudo-legendary pokemon that doesn't apear in the movie, beside Pokemon World intro.

Artwork from the Late Bloomers collection, depicting several pseudo-legendary Pokémon and their pre-evolved forms

Pseudo-legendary Pokémon is a fan term referring to a group of Pokémon that meet the following criteria:

Pseudo-legendary Pokémon are often more powerful than most other non-Legendary or Mythical Pokémon due to their high base stats. Due to their slow leveling rates and their relatively high evolutionary levels, they also tend to be difficult to raise.

The pseudo-legendary Pokémon were featured in the "Late Bloomers" (Japanese: 大器晩成 Taiki-Bansei) and "Powerhouse Pokémon" collections of Pokémon Center merchandise.

In Japanese fan communities, especially in the competitive scene, the similar term 600族(ぞく) 600 club refers to all Pokémon that have a base stat total of 600 that are not Legendary Pokémon, Mythical Pokémon, or Mega Evolutions. This classification includes all pseudo-legendary Pokémon, but it also includes Archaludon, which is excluded from the definition of pseudo-legendary Pokémon among western fans.

List of pseudo-legendary Pokémon

There are ten Pokémon considered to be pseudo-legendary Pokémon, with every generation introducing at least one. The following shows the pseudo-legendary Pokémon by the generation of their introduction, as well as their types and the Pokémon they evolve from.
