The token that a resolving copy of a spell becomes isn’t said to have been “created.”

2021-04-16wotc

If a creature spell is copied, it’s put onto the battlefield as a token as the spell resolves rather than putting the copy of the spell onto the battlefield. The rules that apply to a permanent spell becoming a permanent apply to a copy of a spell becoming a token.
