Are the New Paradox Pokémon Legendary?

Tacolaser

In the Indigo Disk, six new Paradox Pokemon were released (Iron Crown, Iron Leaves, Iron Boulder, Raging Bolt, Walking Wake, and Gouging Fire). They are all based off of Legendary Pokemon. Does this also make them Legendaries? Or in the case of Iron Leaves and Walking Wake, are they Mythicals?

Almost exactly two years later, @Tacolaser returned to give an unnecessary update

I finally realized I should just check ****. No, they are not mythicals or legendaries.

Suicune is a legendary, right?

There's not really a concrete definition of what a legendary is, but I'd be more willing to call them 'special paradox Pokemon' in the same way the Ultra Beasts are special but aren't legendaries.

I presume in a future update (maybe in the epilogue?) they'll add a way to get them all from raid dens, in a similar way to how certain gmax forms were exclusive to raid events until they added max soup in the Isle or Armour. Would be weird to gatekeep them from people playing in the future, especially since they're allowed in competitive play unlike mythicals.

I thought ones based on Legendary Pokémon would be

Also, I realized something a couple nights ago

Kariadon and Miraidon are based off Cyclizar

Cyclizar isn't a Legendary

Therefore, neither are its Paradoxes

I think it's like what @pikayou said. A legendary Pokemon is whatever Nintendo decides is legendary.
