1 Rayquaza
Rayquaza (pronounced "ray-quay-zah") is a Dragon/Flying type Legendary Pokémon species in Nintendo and Game Freak's Pokémon franchise. It serves as the mascot in the game Pokémon Emerald. Rayquaza can mega evolve into Mega Rayquaza provided that it does not have a Z-Crystal and it knows the move "Dragon Ascent". According to the Pokédex, it lives in the ozone layer, and frequently stops battles with Kyogre and Groudon, two other Legendaries. Rayquaza, one of the strongest pokemon of all time, is also one of the coolest looking, especially when it comes to colours and design. The green is awesome and the different patterns on the long body look super impressive. I prefer it over the mega version as well, simply because it's more colourful. I mean dude look at this guy, it looks badass
2 Lugia
Lugia, known in Japan as ルギア (Rugia), is a Legendary Pokémon species in Nintendo and Game Freak's Pokémon franchise. First introduced in Generation II, it's the mascot of the game Pokémon Silver. It serves as the master of the legendary birds trio, and is part of the tower tuo along with Ho-Oh. To be honest my favourite Johto pokemon, AKA favourite pokemon from Gen II. The colours of blue and white go fantastic togheter and it's even better with those wings that look like hands, I mean just look at him. Having him not in the top three would be hard considering how awesome he actually looks like. Lugia is a cool name as well so there's that as well to be honest
3 Darkrai
Darkrai, known in Japan as the same name, is a Legendary Pokémon species in Nintendo and Game Freak's Pokémon franchise.
4 Latios
Latios, known in Japan as the same name, is a Legendary Pokémon species in Nintendo and Game Freak's Pokémon franchise. It's my all-time favourite pokemon to be honest, and part of the reason, is because of how cool it looks. I love the blue colour and how majestic it looks. Those wings are certainly awesome and the feet are as well. It's better than Latias in my opinion, for a couple of reasons. It looks more serious than Latias which looks more like she thinks the world is a safe place. Latios is the coolest looking pokemon of the first three generations, and pokemon as whole as well
5 Ho-oh
Ho-Oh, known in Japan as Houou, is a Legendary Pokémon species in Nintendo and Game Freak's Pokémon franchise.
6 Suicune
Suicune is a pure water-type Legendary Pokemon introduced in the games Pokemon Gold and Silver (Generation II). It is the mascot of the video game Pokemon Crystal.

It is part of the Legendary beasts trio revived by Ho-Oh after they were caught up by the fire in the Brass Tower after it being struck by... read more Majestic again. This guy's awesome.
7 Latias
Latias, known in Japan as the same name, is a Legendary Pokémon species in Nintendo and Game Freak's Pokémon franchise. The female counterpart of Latios. The only major difference is that Latias is female, has higher defense and is red instead of blue. Another somewhat notable difference is the eyes. Latios looks concentrated and ready for battle, while Latias looks like "Oh, hello, I want to have peace". I don't like the eyes too much but otherwise the design is nice
8 Lunala
Lunala, known in Japan as the same name, is a Legendary Pokémon species in Nintendo and Game Freak's Pokémon franchise.
9 Kyogre
Kyogre, known in Japan as the same name, is a Legendary Pokémon species in Nintendo and Game Freak's Pokémon franchise. I love how it kinda looks similar to Latios is a way, they're both blue and long. I just love the mix of blue and red on a pokemon because it looks fantastic. Those big white dots make it look like a killer whale as well and I like those. I love his primal version as well. Kyogre is one of the coolest looking pokemon as well

Solgaleo is a dual Psychic/Steel Legendary Pokèmon introduced in Generation VII. It evolves from Cosmoem when leveled up in Pokemon Sun starting at level 53.It is one of Cosmog's final forms,the other being Lunala.

Most boss legendary
The Contenders
11 Groudon
Groudon, known in Japan as the same name, is a Legendary Pokémon species in Nintendo and Game Freak's Pokémon franchise. Of the weather trio, Groudon is my least favourite, but that's not saying much. It's also a super cool looking pokemon. Especially in its primal form. It's a giant red awesome lizard who looks badass. In its normal form it's just a ground type but a fire type as well in its primal form and it's definitely one of my favourite legendary pokemon, both in terms of stats, looks and colours in my opinion
He's not cool, he burns.
12 Dialga
Dialga, known in Japan as the same name, is a Legendary Pokémon species in Nintendo and Game Freak's Pokémon franchise. I prefer him over Palkia, especially in terms of design. While Palkia has an exotic design and beautiful pink colour, Dialga beats it in terms of looks. While the design is a tad worse, the colours are what makes up for that. It looks so shiny and gorgeous with that blue colour and bright blue colour it looks so shiny. I mean I could not resist not having Dialga on my list to be completely honest really
13 Mewtwo
I like that Mewtwo can talk and is purple.
it is a scary but cool design.
Don mess with it.
14 Tornadus
Tornadus, known in Japan as Tornelos, is a Legendary Pokémon species in Nintendo and Game Freak's Pokémon franchise. Of the three forces of nature (who are all cool pokemon), Tornadus is definitely the best one in terms of looks and design. Tornadus is green and based on tornadoes. He has definitely the best therian form as well, which is a giant awesome bird. Overall he is a very cool looking legendary pokemon in my opinion
It has a good form and good design
15 Xerneas
Xerneas is a fictional creature in the Pokemon Franchise. Introduced in Gen 6, it is a legendary Fairy type Pokemon, and the mascot of Pokemon X. Classified as the Life Pokemon, Xerneas has the ability to give eternal life, which occurs when the horns on its head shine in seven lights.

Its signature move, Geomancy, takes a turn to charge, but raises its Special Attack, Special Defense, and Speed. A popular moveset is a Geomancy set with Power Herb as the holding item. It just looks so cool
16 Reshiram
Reshiram, known in Japan as the same name, is a Legendary Pokémon species in Nintendo and Game Freak's Pokémon franchise. Its design is awesome and good enough to be fire type.
17 Zekrom
Zekrom, known in Japan as the same name, is a Legendary Pokémon species in Nintendo and Game Freak's Pokémon franchise. Most badass looking legendary design. Cool. It deserves to be higher.
18 Necrozma

19 Giratina
Giratina is a Pokémon species in Nintendo and Game Freak's Pokémon franchise. Created by Ken Sugimori, Giratina first appeared in the video games Pokémon Diamond and Pearl, but gained prominence in the sister game, Pokémon Platinum, which it was made the mascot of.

According to mythology, Arceus is said to emerge from an egg that existed before the universe.
22 Zapdos
Zapdos, known in Japan as Thunder, is a Legendary Pokémon species in Nintendo and Game Freak's Pokémon franchise. Of the three legendary birds, Zapdos is in my opinion, the best one. No, it's not because I'm team instinct on Pokemon Go and that he is the mascot of that team, no it's not because of that, but because of his design. It's hands down the coolest looking and most original looking of them. Articone is majestic looking but is a bit basic. And Molthree is just a chicken on fire. Zaptwo on the other hand looks like paper and has tons of sharp edges and it looks quite good
Zapdos is a cool lightning pokemon.
You're shocked.
