gazelles are known for being graceful and majestuous
a tadpole is a tadpole
also arceus does not look at all like a gazelle beyond the fact that it's quadrupedal
"I like girls, but now, it's about justice."Probably a bit of that, but it's largely the serpent.
Yveltal is the Eagle, Xerneas is one of the stags, and Zygarde is the serpent that gnaws at the roots of Yggdrasil.
Which was actually a thing before Xiphos went and grimderped all over it.

MY SOUL IS DARK BUT MY HAIR IS COLORFUL — Brahian Pokémon AlchemistAlso, did you know that RSE's legendaries were based off middle eastern mythology, of all things?
Kyogre is Leviathan, Groudon is Behemoth, and Rayquaza is Ziz. The Regi trio are obviously golems.
And everyone knows about the whole Kyoto towers thing in GSC.

What the fuck did you just fucking say about me, you little bitch? I’ll have you know I graduated top of my class in the Navy Seals, and I’ve been involved in numerous secret raids on Al-Quaeda, and I have over 300 confirmed kills. I am trained in gorilla warfare and I’m the top sniper in the entire US armed forces. You are nothing to me but just another target. I will wipe you the fuck out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the Internet? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of spies across the USA and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You’re fucking dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and that’s just with my bare hands. Not only am I extensively trained in unarmed combat, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the United States Marine Corps and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little “clever” comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue. But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit fury all over you and you will drown in it. You’re fucking dead, kiddo.
"I like girls, but now, it's about justice."In Gen I the legendaries were just kinda there. Apart from Mewtwo, anyway, and even then he was just kinda there too.
Gen II used them for worldbuilding.
Gen III was the first game where they actually became plot relevant about halfway through the game.
And from then on up until Gen VI the whole game revolved around the box legendaries.
Gen VI just had them kinda there, too, but not in a good way. They were mostly just plot batteries.
Then again who gives a shit about plot? It's Pokemon.
Quoted for truth.
@Jam: Yeah actually I am, though there's a serpent at the World Tree too so I guess they just decided to transplant him a little.

MY SOUL IS DARK BUT MY HAIR IS COLORFUL — Brahian Pokémon Alchemistbut symbolism
sure, kyogre trounced groudon
but there is a reason for that
notice how much fucking water there is compared to land
gen IV had mostly balanced trio (yes dialga was neutral dragon compared to weak to dragon, but hey palkia got earth power)
gen V was also balanced
gen IV: xerneas is completely superior to the other legends in every way

which apparently includes looking like a big dumb forest animal
