Well, what music does it play when you're battling it? The legendary music or the normal wild pokemon music? That'll tell ya.

Precisely my point, although, Cresselia's battle music is the normal wild Pokémon music, however; that could be to just through you off...
 
Rotom is no legendary. Its level is too low and it's not that rare. and the fact that you can breed it knocks it off the legendary status.

Manaphy can breed, but Phione dont evolve to Manaphy.

Phione doesn't really count as a legend.

pokemon.com actually says that it is (even though logically it shouldn't be)

Let us consider the word "legendary".

Spoken of in legends? Oh no. Myths? Nuh-uh.

Unown? Nope, although it certainly fits some of the criteria (can't breed, no gender, there's a movie about it, some neat powers, can't forget the legends)

Yes, I know that it has been answered, although I am still not convinced that it isn't a legendary.
 
You'd think, it IS the most accurate Pokemon website ever, heck, it's the official one, what more proof does this person need?O_o
 
Yeah, I always find that official sites are usually really inaccurate.

Although I agree with it on this one.
 
Rotom is no legendary. It has pathetic base stats compared to legendaries, no mythology behind it, it can breed, and the biggest thing: It can compete in the Battle Tower. To my knowledge, only Legendary Trios and the Lati are allowed out of all Legendaries. Rotom is not part of a trio or a Lati

Also, Dratini/Dragonair/Dragonite are found right in the middle of the Kanto Legendaries, yet they aren't considered unique legendaries able to evolve
 
Commahappy, did you even bother to read through the rest of the thread?

Actually you are allowed to use Heatran in the Battle Tower.

Rotom is a legendary Pokemon, because there is only one of them, and it appears at the tail end of the Pokedex.

Oh, also, that's like saying Metagross is a legendary because it appears at the end of the Hoenn dex, or Tyranitar or Dragonite.
