Talk:Legendary artifacts

Move

The current title is incorrect, as an artifact is, from Wikipedia: "something made or given shape by man, such as a tool or a work of art, esp an object of archaeological interest".

With the exception of the GS Ball, the Bells, and possibly the Orbs, a lot of these items are made by Pokémon, not people, and the GS Ball would never be considered an artifact. Vuvuzela2010⚡ 20:17, 18 September 2011 (UTC)

Following that definition, you are correct; however, there is not just one definition of artifact. The fundamental problem with that definition is that Pokémon are sentient too, so the definition usually applied in a non-fiction environment does not apply in a fictional universe such as this. The fifth definition is relevant here. I was originally going to go with "legendary items" for the title of this page, but someone suggested this title instead. --SnorlaxMonster 09:18, 19 September 2011 (UTC)
