You could argue that being a roaming pokemon was actually a boost to it because more people would find it that way. Where as pokemon that are only found in certain locations such as Zapdos, you can miss entirely unless you explore areas you're not forced to explore. So you'll be more aware of it.

So every fan that likes Darkrai, knows of Cresselia. Heatran on the other hand is absolutely irrelevant.

It makes more sense when you consider Cresselia is themed after the crescent moon, and while Darkrai is associated with nightmares and darkness, you catch it on New Moon Island, which contrasts with Cresselia's home location of Full Moon Island.

I feel like it's Heatran. Here's my reasoning: Cresselia is one of the mainstays in VGC competitions, and just got a new signature move in Legends Arceus, along with being in the Pokémon Masters 2.5 year celebration. Raikou had a special/movie around it, a special shiny distribution of it because of a movie that it's in, and has had its origin story told several times in (fantastic) animation. Heatran, meanwhile, hasn't really gotten anything special after its release. It doesn't have any special story in the games, it hasn't really seen any updates since it was released, and it was distributed for the year of Legendaries with... Regigigas. I guess Regigigas needed a friend too?

While Cresselia doesn't get any love in the main line series (being a somewhat obscure roaming Pokemon), if you look to the world of spin-off games, Cresselia has some rather special treatment in the Explorers arc of the Mystery Dungeon franchise. She joins you in the post-game quest to take the down the overarching big bad Darkrai. Lots of legendary Pokemon get cool and fun content in the Mystery Dungeon games. Raikou even serves a role in a few of them too. No love for Heatran though. In the MD games he does show up in, he's kind of just there. No real quest other than a Wonder Mail tie in gimmick in Explorers.

Let's not forget that even in the one game where Cresselia had a significant role (PMD2), she... wasn't exactly loved by the fanbase. Spoilers for that game: The first few times you see her, it's just Darkrai disguised as her. And when the real Cresselia finally does show up, you have to take her on an escort mission through the hardest story mode dungeon in the game. Her AI is terrible, she constantly levitates over the lava in the dungeon which inflicts burn on herself, and if that wasn't bad enough, you have to put up with that poor AI even longer during the final battle against Darkrai. Scratch that, Darkrai and the 6 allies he just calls to assist him. And because Cresselia's a story-essential party member, the same rules apply to her as they do to the player and partner. Meaning that if she faints and you don't have any Reviver Seeds, it counts as a loss and you need to do the whole dungeon all over again.

Cresselia appears in Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Explores of Time/Darkness and their reboot game Explorers of the Sky. In it, she is a main character for the post game dungeon where she will recruit your main character's team to guide her through a dungeon to face Darkria at the end and close out the story. As a physic type, she is vulnerable to Dark, Ghost, and Bug, dark featuring heavily in the dungeon meaning she has lots of chances to die... causing a game over for you. When you get to the final boss there's an ambush, no surprise there. Her starting position has her against Mismagius and Argon. One has shadow ball for super effective damage, the other crunch. 10 year old me spent several hours grinding through this dungeon to get to the end, only to have Cresselia die immediately and I don't want to sound petty. But I'm happy she is the least represented because I don't forgive her.

I can let the mispronunciation of Arceus go, because not only was that a major debate within the pokémon community for the longest time, it also took Pokémon as a franchise a while to decide on an official pronunciation themselves (I hear they actually changed it a time or two), but the mispronunciation of Giratina hurts my soul.

I’d argue Raikou is more forgotten. It’s my favorite of the Legendary Beasts, but it really hasn’t gotten any time in the limelight since it’s debut. Both Cresselia and Heatran showed up on the Gen 5 games (Cress even had a minor story arc revolving around a ghost girl), Cresselia had a major role in the postgame of Explorers of Time/Darkness/Sky, and Heatran got a little spotlight in that one Generations episode.

In original Gen 2 it was easy-ish to catch Raikou, Entei, Suicine; use the cloning "feature" to get multiple Master Balls and then you get a bunch of Repels and find a grassy area that doesn't have other trainers nearby. Use the Repels and keep running around the grass eventually all 3 will appear and can capture them with the Master Balls. Additionally can do that without the cloning feature, but requires a strong Wobbabuffet with Shadow Tag to keep them in place. Same method works in Hoenn games & LeafGreen/FireRed for the roaming legendaries.

Heatran gets notable game locations in quite a few cases with Stark Mountain, Reversal Mountain, and that one place in ORAS. Cresselia gets a random haunted mansion quest in Unova postgame and a nightmaring child in Sinnoh, but both of those only present it as the solution to a problem caused by Darkrai. Overall, though, Raikou doesn't get any of that so I dunno which one has truly been the most ignored.

The "legendary" and "sub-legendary" distinctions are fan made, the only place where I've seen it other than this video is Serebii. the distinction seems to be whether or not the legendary appears on a game's box, with two exceptions: Mewtwo is a legendary because of his general importance in gen 1 despite not being a mascot of Red, Green, Blue, or Yellow, probably because of his popularity through the first movie, and Suicune is sub-legendary despite being Crystal's mascot because he is part of the sub-legendary Legendary Beasts trio. I basically think of legendaries as basically the gods of the world, and sub-legendaries as minor deities.

Raikou's not a roaming Pokémon in Pokémon Colosseum. It, along with the other Legendary Beasts, are used by the Cipher Admins, (with the exception of Miror B.,) and they're Shadow Pokémon, so you can catch them

I'd argue it's Heatran, Cresselia gets some love in a mystery dungeon game. And atleast it has story/lore. Heatran is just... there. And is honestly the legendary I forget about all the time.

I've never once heard the term "Sub-legendary" in my life. And I've been playing these games for practically the whole 26 years of my life. They'll all remain Legendary to me.
@lordofninjas12 жыл бұрын
I've heard it said once or twice, and I've been playing since I was like 5 and I'm nearly 30 now. But yeah it's definitely not something that's really talked about a lot, and most are probably the same as you and I counting them all as just Legendary anyways.
@clemente39662 жыл бұрын
I have, and for a long time now. Basically any legendary (trio) that isn't in the group of the game mascots, that isn't mythical, and that often is governed by another legendary, possibly in their group. The elemental birds : Lugia The Johto beasts : Ho-oh The Regis : Regigigas (obviously) Not the Eons, not Heatran nor Cresselia Lake spirits : Arceus (mythical, but Arceus litteraly created the egg they come from) Swords of Justice : Cobalion Forces of nature : Landorus Tapus: Koko Or at least that's what I consider a sub legendary and which ones I count as subs.

Raikou is my favorite legendary and the fact it was the only one in the trio to never get a movie just killed me. I mean, it's an electric sabre toothed cat! How is that not a movie worthy Pokémon??

Everyone who managed to get to the post game of the PMD Explorers games absolutely despise Cresselia. Seriously, even as an adult I still had trouble with that part.
@CursioNeptune2 жыл бұрын
I also feel like Cresselia got short-changed in her typing and backstory. She's supposed to be THE only counter to Darkrai's nightmares. Dark is not effected by pyschic at all. I feel like the team literally did forget Cresselia, because when fairy type was introduced, and some previous pokemon, like the clefairy line and jigglypuff line had the fairy type added or replace their type, I think Cresselia should have at least had it added. This would not only give her the ability to actually live up to her own lore against Darkrai , but it would have turned MOONblast, THE moon themed attack into a same type attack bonus move. Thinking of that missed oppurtunity and how it will never be fixed makes me ridiculously peeved -w-;

I remember when I was in 3rd grade, my friend Jack and I sat on the bus together as we were going on a field trip. He had a pokemon game, and I was watching him play over his shoulder. I really liked the look of Cresselia and he had eight of them, but he said it was a lame pokemon.

3:52 Mythical Pokémon are basically like squares and rectangles, all squares are rectangles but not all rectangles are squares. And therefore all Mythicals are Legendaries but not all Legendaries are Mythicals.

I don’t know if they’re the most forgotten legendary Pokémon, but I do feel like the Swords of Justice are relatively forgotten compared to most other legendaries. They were introduced in Gen 5 which had not only the most legendary and mythical Pokémon introduced up till that point, but the most Pokémon in general. They did get a movie, but since Gen 5 they’ve scarcely shown up in other games in a major way.
@clemente39662 жыл бұрын
Gen 6 : only Kanto birds Gen 7 : every previous legendaries, by Ultra wormhole Gen 8 : every previous legendary by Dynamax adventures, except for a few, the Swords of Justice included in forefront. So sure, there wasn't a lot, but the other previous legendaries also didn't show up in major ways either

@lordofninjas12 жыл бұрын
A least loved Ultra Beast and least loved Mythical video both sound really good. Maybe a least loved form/variant video and a least loved of each type video as well or maybe a least loved of each Gen. What sucks even more for Cresselia is that it's weak to Darkrai because of it's Psychic typing, and when they introduced Fairy type and had the perfect opportunity to give it to Cresselia, which would have made Cresselia have a type advantage over Darkrai, and it just fits with Cresselia's aesthetic and such as well, they didn't do it even though they retyped a bunch of other Pokemon at that time. If you want to count it too, Raikou does have a sort of appearance in the Zoroark movie, granted it's a shiny and granted it's a Zoroark illusion IIRC, but that would still probably count.
