Pokémon Legendaries: Use or not to use?

[Corrie]

All legendaries are different as far as skills and strength so for me I tend to use the 'weaker' ones to avoid feeling OP or something lol. But that said, I normally don't use them at all. I box them and genuinely forget they're in there.

I think it's kinda lame, lol. I'm glad that newer games aren't letting you catch them until postgame. I used Lunala in my first playthrough of Moon and replaced the Alolan Raticate I had since the beginning of the game and still feel bad about it to this day.

I'm all for using Pokémon you have, but I just never use them myself. I don't find legendaries interesting.

I don’t normally use them, but in BDSP I loved getting Jirachi early on because it’s one of my favorite mons and it was as if it was just a regular old member of my team.

Otherwise I don’t normally make legendaries a staple member of my team. Zacian has been nice in the SwSh post game though.

As a kid I used them but as I got older I preferred to not use them as they typically make the game easier. So I don’t use them anymore unless it’s postgame or something.

I’m fine with people using whatever they want though. It’s your game so play it how you want and have fun with it. I do remember playing SoulSilver with both a Latias and Latios once as they were among my favourites that was fun.
