transfer Legendaries??

alright guys, I'm wondering how many of the same Legendary Pokemon you keep in your box before transferring the less desirable ones. so far I have not parted with any of my Legendaries, and my box is filling up constantly because of it. my initial instinct is to keep around 7 or 8 of each just to be safe. thoughts? does anyone have a good method?

I keep 7. 6 for the hypothetical situation where one raid boss or gym battle requires 6 of the very same legendary, and the final one for trading if required.

I keep up to three, but am only powering up one of each, at least for now.

I keep one of each. Cause they are legendary.

I almost transferred some of mine during the double candy, but couldn't quite get myself to do it. But then I only have 39 total, for all eight types combined, so the extras aren't really wasting that much space for me (1 Mewtwo; 3 Lugia; 5 each Articuno, Moltres, Entei, and Suicune; 7 Zapdos; 8 Raikou). If I had transferred some, though, I figured I would have kept about 3 of each.

I was about to transfer some for the double candy (Raikou is the only one I was able to get more than 2 of anyway), but then I paused and didn't do it when someone suggested they might have trade value in the future so I backed off for now.

I transferred all but my best one during the double candy event. I only had around 30ish candies of each at that point. Wanted to get one of each to level 30 spending the least amount of rare candies

It was wise to get rid of them during halloween event

You should have thought of this last week when transferring was worth 2 candies. But to answer your question I've kept anything above 82% IV unless it was 10 or 11 attack. Which really meant that I transferred 1 Raikou, 1 Lugia, and 5 Entei.

I have kept my top three of each, and one extra of Zapdos, Raikou, and Lugia for potential trading because I know people that missed them. Transfered most of the lowest IVs under 80% soon after catching if I already had a higher one, and transfered several more during Halloween event.

Haven't transfered any Suicune yet--not even my 76% which I previously would have ground up without hesitation. Not sure how to treat Hidden Power.

Haha glad to see someone in this boat as well, I think I'm going to transfer those that I have a duplicate of and a 90+ (provided the other is 80-), it's also a way to dump fast TMs without actually 'wasting' them by TMing back and forth

My suicunes I haven't transferred any yet either (well actually one duplicate ghost one I did, low IV). They kinda suck, but are fun because I am keeping one of each type hidden power and one extrasensory. Now they are my favorite. I have only needed to use like 3 TMs so far to find out what hidden power they had. i have 8 different ones so far. All other legendaries I keep anything above 80 so I have around 7 or 8 of each, anything lower make me sad and are instantly transferred right after catching.

Trying to keep 4 of each but i don't transfer any 90+ iv.
Anyway i want to power up just one of each, the others i keep with me for trading with friends that doesn't have in the future.

6 of each. Only maxed 1 Mewtwo and 1 Raikou and power to lv30 another mewtwo, Raikou, and Zapdos. Waiting for double candy to transfer suicune.

I would not place too much value on the trading part (to someone who does not have one). It is another story if it is a high iv one. My wild guess is that after this month, all birds and beast will be available as 5 star bosses and/or wild catches (to pacify the rural players that do not have enough players to raid).

To answer your question, just have one per moveset and transferred the others during the Halloween event.
