What if Pokemon Had a 4th Legendary?

For anyone wondering why Moltres is Spring and Zapdos is Summer, in many cultures summer is characterized as the season of thunderstorms, including in Japan where the stormy season is May-July. Moltres being spring is the phoenix rising like how spring brings new life

For the Loyal three, I'm surprised that no one else noticed that they all could have specifically been from Unova. Okidogi could have been an evolution from the stoutland line, Munkidori could have been an elemental monkey, specifically panpour or pansear, and Fezandipiti could've been an unfezant. All of these pokemon are both from Unova and not in Scarlet and Violet or the dlcs. If the pokemon were all in the same region, it would make sense that they would become a trio under the toxic chain, and would come to kitakami to steal the masks.

He seriously missed the Taoism inspiration for the TAO Trio. It's literally in the name

Couple corrections. Suicune is a leopard not a cheetah, all the beast are a species of panther. And the TAO trio are based on TAOISM, not alchemy. The similarity between the dragons and alchemy is a popular yet unconfirmed fan theory.

I noticed you missed the Yin and Yang theme Reshiram and Zekrom had, with Reshiram representing Yang, Zekrom representing Yin, and Kyurem representing Wuji(The absence of both). Kind of their most important theme, and very suprised you missed it.

These are pretty interesting and well-researched, although you missed a decent detail for the creation trio: Palkia having two legs, Dialga having four, and Giratina having six. The new one having four breaks that mold a fair bit.

I'm surprised you missed the Momotaro theme for the loyal 3 trio would be cool to see a pokemon based on momotaro himself

darkest day trio? sad zacian noises sad zamazenta noises sad eternatus noises

Personally I actually made a 4th Legendary beast a while ago that was a grass type and it fit into the cycle of life as it's the flourishing of new life from the tower after the fact (as flowers can regrow in those types of places and bring about new life and rebirth)

Adding a fourth member to the Loyal Three doesn't work because the animals in the Momotaro myth are a dog, monkey and pheasant. Adding a capybara would just make the reference not work anymore. 💀

Hey Dobbs, you actually missed a detail about the Loyal Three, and its that they're actually based on the three animals from the story of Momotaro, a hero who fights onis/ogres, which also explains their rivalry with Ogrepon, though of course with the roles reversed.

Bro forgot the dark day trio 💀

Loved the video! My only suggestion would be calling it Tornaquatro (to make the Spanish number stick out) and maybe make a Galarian form of said Tornado bird. Perhaps a Ghost or Steel type, as I would consider those similar to Psychic, Dark, and Fighting in terrifying strength and/or cruelty.

The fourth member of the Creation Trio here reminds me of Heatran. I wonder if he was initially going to have more of a presence in the games but eventually got scrapped in favor of focusing on the main three. Heatran even has that weird circular spot on it's forehead where a gemstone easily could have gone. This would also make sense as Heatran is also the Pokedex number directly after Palkia. The order is Dialga - Palkia - Heatran - Regigigas - Giratina

I like how Legends Arceus gave us a canon 4th member of the Forces of Nature with Enamorus

A lot I like, but I feel you missed a bunch of details. I loved a lot of the designs, the bird is a really great take in the concept (I'd love to know you'd handle the Galarian), the beast representing the night it happened is super observant and I love it, a Fire big bang pokemon is super cool and fits in awesome, a being if Imagination is super imaginative and also fits in amazingly, playing off the 4th dimension for gen 6 is a clever idea I just wouldn't have thought of, the idea of a gravity monkey with a planet tail and based off a space animal is super clever and funny, and the name "Cappygolucky" gives me life. For the not so great, you missed a looooot of inspirations for a lot of groups. You didn't cover the earth/sea/sky dynamic, you missed the Shinto/Christianity influences in gen 4, "Omni" isn't a pronoun, the Tao trio are based on the Chinese legends of the Three Wise Ones, Kyurem doesn't represent unity but the absence thereof (which is why it looks so misshapen when it absorbs only one. The message of the story is that realism and idealism are both imperfect in their own), you didn't go over the cycle of life, death and rebirth in gen 6, the alchemy inspiration in gen 7, the relation to Cosmog, or the fact that the Loyal Three are based off the tale of Momotaro.

Fun fact about the bird trio. Articuno represents the absence of energy, Moltres the presence of energy, and Zappos the transferring of energy

The "Creation" legendaries already has a fourth: Arceus

Fun fact: it’s now recently proven Suicune is ACTUALLY BASED OFF A KURIN A BEAST that’s a combination of the dragon and a UNICORN

It is also theorised that the Lake Trio of Sinnoh draw parallels with the 3 monkeys Uxie with its eyes closed "sees no evil" Mesprit who roams the Sinnoh region before catching it "touches no evil" (some variations use touch instead of hear) Azelf who is associated with knowledge and wisdom "speaks no evil"
