List of Pseudo-Legendary Pokemon Evolutionary Lines

The table below displays the evolutionary line for all pseudo-legendary Pokemon, including the methods for evolving each Pokemon and whether or not they have a Mega Evolution.

What Make a Pokemon a Pseudo-Legendary?

The term “Pseudo-Legendary”is not an official term, but rather a term created by fans. This may lead to the perception that the requirements for a Pokemon to be classified as such are random. However, these characteristics have remained consistent throughout the various games, with each generation introducing at least one new pseudo-legendary Pokemon. To be considered a pseudo-legendary, a Pokemon must meet the following criteria:

• Be the final evolution in a three-stage evolutionary line,
• Have a base stat total of 600 points,
• To reach Level 100, one must obtain a cumulative total of 1,250,000 experience points.

A Pokemon must meet all of the specified criteria in order to be classified as a pseudo-legendary Pokemon. This includes having a base stat total of 600, a three-stage evolutionary line, and requiring 1,250,000 experience points to reach Level 100. Although Volcarona is a formidable Pokemon, it falls short in one of these requirements with a base stat total of 550 and only two evolutionary stages. As a result, it cannot be considered a pseudo-legendary Pokemon, but it remains a strong and powerful creature in its own right.

Is There an Official Term for Pseudo-Legendary Pokemon?

Although there is no official term for pseudo-legendary Pokemon, it is widely believed that these Pokemon are intentionally designed with certain characteristics in mind. This can be seen in the “Late Bloomers”merchandise set released by the Pokemon Center stores in Japan, which features both pseudo-legendary Pokemon and their pre-evolutions, as seen in the image above. This likely refers to the fact that pseudo-legendary Pokemon evolve at high levels and require more experience to reach those levels due to their experience gain grouping. While “Late Bloomers”is the closest term to an official name used for these Pokemon, it has only been used in reference to the merchandise line and not in any other context.

Moreover, the title of pseudo-legendary is not commonly used among Japanese players. Instead, they refer to these Pokemon as part of the “600 Club”which includes all Pokemon with a base stat total of 600. This group is then divided into legendary Pokemon, Mythical Pokemon, and regular Pokemon. This encompasses pseudo-legendaries, Mega Evolutions, and even Archaludon, who has a base stat total of 600 but does not fulfill the other requirements to be considered a pseudo-legendary.
