There's actually a lot we don't know about Pokémon in general, despite having lived with them all our lives. Even the legends about the ones we've captured are ancient and mostly out of human memory, save for the ones that were written down, and a lot of those are vague and don't mention a lot of important details. Some of them don't even mention the Pokémon they're talking about.
Though I suppose I can understand that - at the time they were written, it was likely a case of "What sort of idiot wouldn't know?"
