Classification of Gods of Myth and Legend
The Gods and Goddesses of the Pokemon World are broken down into two main categories, Legendary and Mythical.
Most, if not all you will encounter in your journey in game will be of the Legendary variety, while Mythical Pokemon are usually received through events.
I wish to propose a different way to look at them and their hierarchy.
The way I see them are as follows;
There are those that directly embody a force of nature, like Winter, Time, or Tectonic Activity.
Those that embody something more abstract, like Compassion, Determination, and Bright Futures.
And those who don’t quite embody an aspect of life, but are more complex and specific. These are less easily grouped together.
Regardless of Legendary or Mythical status, each falls under one of those categories. Although there are some exceptions, like with every rule.
With each, outside of their specific aspects of life and/or nature, they have other qualities and characteristics that one can look to each for; whether that be guidance when one is lost, the ability to endure in the face of hardship, change, and pain, or the willingness to be yourself in spite of the judgement of others.
With such a wide pantheon of Gods and Goddesses, I’m sure you could find at least one who would be able to help you in some way.
