 If we don't count Phione, I don't count Genesect.  It's a fossil pokemon that got screwed by science.  
And mewtwo, it came from mew, so it doesn't count either.
But a real argument: 
Phione is banned from the Battle Frontier, the Battle Subway and the Pokémon World Tournament, a rule that applies to legendary Pokémon.
It was also featured in Pokémon.com's Pokémon Power Bracket, while all other Pokémon in it were legendary Pokémon.
