And that's why they're Paradoxes, because they're not supposed to exist. Pokemon from pasts that didn't happen or futures that will never come to pass.“Real” is subjective, I suppose. I’m not sure they previously existed as “real” Pokémon, but if some version of my guess is close to the truth, they “manifested” and now they exist like any “real” Pokémon.
Though that does provide a very easy out as to why we would never see them roaming natively around any future regions.
