I don't know if anyone else has realised this but I just discovered it and HAD to post about it.
The four 'musketeers' of Black and White have a pattern in their stats, each number goes up diagonally across the four Pokemon. Okay, I'll explain (perhaps copy the stats into a word document so you can compare them for yourselves). Each one of the Pokemon have the same HP and Speed stat, so ingore them.
Now you have four stats left to look at; Attack, Defense, Special Attack and Special Defense. If you've got them all in front of you, you will see that each row has the same stat values just in a different order, the Attack goes 90, 129, 90, 72. The Defense stat has 129, 90, 72, 90 and so on. But that's not the pattern!

Colbalon Terrakion Virizion Keldeo
91 91 91 91
90 129 90 72
129 90 72 90
90 72 90 129
72 90 129 90
108 108 108 108

Look at these numbers, the pattern follows from Cobalon's Attack (90), Terrakion's Special Defense (90), Virizion's Special Attack (90) and Keldeo's Defense (also 90).
So if you follow the stat of one Pokemon, that number repeats in a pattern onto the next Pokemon if you read the stats as Attack, Special Defense, Special Attack, Defense. Defense, Attack, Special Defense, Special Attack. Special Attack, Defense, Attack, Special Defense etc.

Haha, nothing important. Just something that I noticed which I found rather interesting. Looks like they really are linked to each other.
 
Wow thats pretty cool, must have been hard to come up with that idea. (talking about GF) Is there something like this for other pokemon?
 
Actually, all legend trios/duos are like this.
Ex. Groudon and Kyogre have their Atk/Sp Atk and Def/Sp Def stats swapped. (same for reshiram and zekrom)
To show power (or in kyurems case, a lack of) the third has its stats powered up. Rayquaza has its HP and Speed up by 5 points, Defenses down a bit, and 150 in both attacks.
I never noticed this find before.
 
I had already noticed that cobalion and virizion had the same attack and sp. atk and their defense and sp. defense were switched and the opposite was true for terrakion and keldeo. What I didn't notice is that those numbers go up diagonally across them...
 
Yeah, I noticed things like that too, frostwind. But this was a pretty big effort to link four Pokemon, rather than just three or two. Gamefreak is doing well, haha.
I wonder if there are any other groups that do something similar...
