ARM's use of "pseudo instruction" is something which looks like an instruction for assembler purposes, but which cannot be represented as a real machine code instruction.
The common example from "normal ARM" instructions is the arbitrary load:
LDR, r0, =0x12345678
This will compile down to a MOV if the immediate fits in the MOV instruction, or a LDR from literal pool if it doesn't.
