legendaries

Tales of greatness

Legendaries is gaming slang, particularly in Pokémon and similar games, for legendary creatures or items—the rarest and most powerful ones in the game.

Players use it casually to discuss their collections or strategies: I finally caught all the legendaries.

The term has spread to other games where ultra-rare items or characters exist, always carrying connotations of prestige and difficulty to obtain.
