But first pokemon whose original name consists of two words Asmod96 (talk) 14:04, 30 June 2016 (UTC)

I don't think this kind of first is notable. Maybe if it turns out to be the only one, we can revisit. But there's really nothing terribly special about it overall. Crystal Talian 14:10, 30 June 2016 (UTC)

I think being the only Pokémon that has an interpunct in its Japanese name would be worthwhile trivia, which at present it is. --SnorlaxMonster 14:33, 30 June 2016 (UTC)

Would the first Pokémon which name consists of two fully spelled out words be considered noteworthy? In contrast to Mime Jr. and Mr. Mime in which both Jr. and Mr. is short for Junior and Mister respectively. --Raltseye prata med mej 16:26, 30 June 2016 (UTC)

That's definitely splitting hairs. Not a worthwhile distinction. Tiddlywinks (talk) 16:28, 30 June 2016 (UTC)

Re: Japanese name: It's certainly the only Pokémon so far which has punctuation in its Japanese name (Porygon-Z's has the letter Z in it, so non-kana wouldn't work.), but it's quite possible there'll be other Pokémon with two word names like this in Alola, so it might be best to wait--Abcboy (talk) 16:32, 30 June 2016 (UTC)

The trivia holds until such a Pokémon is revealed, so I think it's fine to add it now. Then, if another Pokémon with an interpunct is revealed, the trivia is no longer true and can be removed. --SnorlaxMonster 16:38, 30 June 2016 (UTC)

Legendary?

Does anyone have any confirmation whether Tapu Koko and the other Alola guardians are legendaries or just normal Pokémon? Ashitic (talk) 19:59, 30 June 2016 (UTC)
