A Sudden Question About The Pseudo-Legendaries

They could probably handwave that by saying it's the only giant Dragonite in the world. That would cover all the bases.

1. Damn, tropes-lurking is common.
2. Nice line.
3. The the dragons learn STAB OUTRAGE! BASE 180! Others don't.
4. Dragons are wise and magic.
 
But why just them? Why is it that there is a special Dragonite, which is a dragon?

Why did they have a dark tyrannical dinosaur in Pokèmon Forever?

Why can't super machines get special version of them like one that was maybe blacking out a city by draining the power plant and then consuming the nearby computers or something, instead of that special one that was weak, but aggressive?

Why did that jet plane dragon be under the ownership of a champion, which allows her to sweep up effortlessly?

1)You remember when the giant Dragonite happened? That was in Kanto. Please stop pretending that anything that happened in Kanto has any bearing on the anime today(aside from Pokemon captures and recurring characters, for obvious reasons). Kanto was absolutely bizarre as far as anime regions go, and the writers did a lot of out-of-place stuff(relative to the decade of the anime since then) since a)They had just started writing the anime and b)Nobody thought that the anime would last anywhere near as long as it did.
2)Cynthia has a Garchomp because she has a Garchomp in the games, just like how Drake had a Salamence because he had a Salemence in the games. And the anime does allow elite trainers to have powerful Pokemon like that, because...they're powerful trainers! Would you rather see Cynthia using the same Pokemon that regular old, boring trainers use?
 
I wasn't pretending anything, but I see the point about Kanto being the first new region and such.

As for Champions and members of the Elite Four, of course they should have them, and I will agree that they were good when they were shown battling, since they easily took out their opponents.
