Pseudo-legendary Pokémon
| The subject of this article has no official name. The name currently in use is a fan designator; see below for more information. |
| It has been suggested that this article be moved to Powerhouse Pokémon. Please discuss whether or not to move it on its talk page. |

Pseudo-legendary Pokémon is a fan term referring to a group of Pokémon that meet the following criteria:
- The Pokémon is the final stage of a three-stage evolutionary line.
- The Pokémon has a base stat total of exactly 600 (before Mega Evolving).
- The Pokémon levels up at a slow rate (requiring 1,250,000 experience points to reach level 100).
Pseudo-legendary Pokémon are often more powerful than most other non-Legendary or Mythical Pokémon due to their high base stats. Because of their slow leveling rates and their relatively high evolutionary levels, they tend to be difficult to raise. The majority of them are also Dragon-type Pokémon.
The pseudo-legendary Pokémon were featured in the "Late Bloomers" (Japanese: 大器晩成 Taiki-Bansei) and "Powerhouse Pokémon" collections of Pokémon Center merchandise. With the exception of Hisuian Goodra, all pseudo-legendary Pokémon were featured in the Pokémon Trainers Figure series.
In Japanese fan communities, especially in the competitive scene, the similar term 600族 600 club refers to all Pokémon that have a base stat total of 600 that are not Legendary Pokémon, Mythical Pokémon, or Mega Evolutions. This classification includes all pseudo-legendary Pokémon, but it also includes Archaludon, which is excluded from the definition of pseudo-legendary Pokémon among Western fans.
List of pseudo-legendary Pokémon
There are ten Pokémon considered to be pseudo-legendary Pokémon, with every generation introducing at least one. The following shows the pseudo-legendary Pokémon by the generation of their introduction, as well as their types and the Pokémon they evolve from.
