    After reading some pokemon fanfics there are often the words like orgin energy as Legendary energy or as the required energy to become a top 4 class

    Another one is that the legendary Pokemon is split into class 1-3
    Is there any English equivalent of those?

    would have had read said novels to know for sure, but at least when it comes to legendary pokemon there's pseudo legendary (aka Tyranitar/Salamence/Metagross/Garchomp/etc.) legendary (Legendary Birds, Ho-Oh and Lugia , Weather Trio, Dialga/Palkia/Giaratina, etc.) and mythic legendary (Mew, Celebi, Darkrai, etc.).


    Or maybe it's referring to in each generation there's usually the main protagonist legendary pokemon (who are usually the strongest pokemon), then some other duo or trio that roam around the map.

    In Gen 2 there's Ho-Oh and Lugia duo and Entei/Suicune/Raikou roaming around

    For example in Gen 3 there's Groudon/Kyogre/Rayquaza trio and Latias/Latios duo roaming.

    etc.

    Nope. Western novels also use way less (if at all) numbers, ranks and stats.

    As far as I'm concerned? The Pokemon fanfics I've read aren't concerned on numbers... I've read maybe one or two fanfics that include numbers, and that's mainly for the so-called "Pokemon Level System" similar to what you have in the Pokemon games. I've never seen the Legendaries being classed into their own different categories depending on their power (besides Arceus because Arceus is godlike)

    That's just third-party rulesets for competitive pokemon play though, similarly even in VGC (Video Game Championships) there's certain rules. Like some pokemon are even completely banned from official tournaments
