Is it possible for an end portal to not generate in the legacy console (xbox 360) edition of minecraft [duplicate]
Solution 1:
Strongholds don't necessarily have a end portal.
Here are some quotes about it:
There's usually 3 strongholds per world and they don't all necessarily all have a portal
- Stronghold without end portal - Minecraft Forums
After doing some more digging i found out that Java doesn't always have portals and Bedrock occasionally produces strongholds without portals:
There doesn't appear to be a portal at this stronghold. Although Java always has portals, Bedrock occasionally produces strongholds without portals.

Solution 2:
Sometimes strongholds get cut off by other underground structures (eg. ravines, mineshafts, etc.) there will be a stronghold, but sometimes, rarely, it won't even contain one room (eg. library, jail cells, etc.) the chances are really rare but its possible. the stronghold is basically useless. period.
