Pseudo-Legendary Pokémon

Pseudo-Legendary Pokémon, also called Late Bloomers, is a fan term for a group of powerful Pokémon that are not officially classified as a Legendary Pokémon. All Pseudo-Legendary Pokémon are the final form of a three-stage evolution line, have a base stat total of 600 and require 1,250,000 experience points to reach level 100.
==List of Pseudo-Legendary Pokémon==
All generations introduce at least 1 Pseudo-Legendary Pokémon. Generation III, however, introduced two: Salamence and Metagross, and so did Generation VIII: Dragapult in the Sword and Shield games and Hisuian Goodra in Pokémon Legends: Arceus.
