HumanLike Trio?

Pokemon-Dratini

Jinx? a legendary?
Nope that would have not been cool.
 
Is there actually any evidence to support this? It's interesting, but seems unlikely.

Again, the trio would be much stronger if legends. Stats weren't finallized back then.

Plus, having three Flying types for legends is ick. Especially when they all follow the same idea.

Warning: Jokes!
It's possible. They do have seemingly legendary qualities, being the only Pokémon in their generation besides Hitmonchan to learn the legendary punches. Also, the fact that Electabuzz appears to be based on an oni, and Magmar appears to also be based on a mythical animal (A fire-breathing salamander mixed with a duck) also supports this somewhat. Jynx is based on something too modern (clearly a ganguro), which may be the reason the idea was ditched.

Viva el Reggaeton!

No Because They Don't Deserve It!!!

Seriously stop, talking in all caps...

Anyways, no I don't think so... they don't seem like Legendary material to me... although I shouldn't be talking (Phione)

Static owns you.
Anything you hear from elementary school kids should never be taken with seriousness.

Really, I dunno where you heard this, but I really don't think it's likely. Just because they're a trio doesn't mean they are intended to be legendaries. Do you think the Eeveelutions were intended to be legendaries as well just because they were in a trio originally?

And please, for the love of all things good, Why Do You Type Like This? xP

But if they were picked Lugia wouldn't have been made.

I've heard this rumor as well, but it's like saying Ho-oh was originally going to be a first generation Pokémon. (Though, honestly, I have the weirdest feeling that while making the first episode, they were in the making of creating the Johto Pokémon, and slapped Ho-oh in at the last minute. How else would you explain Togepi, and later Marill, Snubbull, and Donphan?) Though I've heard also that Ho-oh was Moltres drawn differently.

What about Dragonite, though? It's considered a pseudo-legendary. So weren't they concerning about making Dragonite a Legendary alongside the Legendary Birds, plus Arcanine? In which case, according to Bulbapedia, Arcanine, had it become an actual Legendary, would've been the Trio Master instead of Lugia (I think someone hinted at that).

The second movie would have been wack if it was human-like legendaries. I can't really imagine Jynx, Magmar, and Electabuzz going at it while Lugia flys around.

Oh wait.
The Second Movie Would Have Been Wack If It Was Human-Like Legendaries. I Can't Really Imagine Jynx, Magmar, And Electabuzz Going At It While Lugia Flys Around.

Am I doing it right?
 

JIMMAH!!!!

Pickin' a winner

That would've been cool. I don't really like Lugia.
Anyway, the Humanlikes as a trio? That would, suck. Besides, then we wouldn't have Magmonkey and the Abominable Zap-yeti.

EDIT: Hey hey! There's mah rank up!

Thats pretty interesting, but I am glad that never happened. However, I never heard of this. Could you show us a link or something?

I remember hearing about this a long time ago, and I'm glad they chose the birds over M/E/J. Tho even though now we say it would be weird, thats because we have a schema for the birds being the legendaries. If Magmar, Electabuzz and Jynx where the legends back in G/R/B/Y We would think the birds would be a bad idea.
