Part of the Tower Duo, this Legendary Pokémon has multiple roles. As Ho-Oh's polar opposite, Lugia is the Guardian of the Seas. It is also the Master of the Legendary Birds of the Kanto Region, Articuno, Zapdos, and Moltres. Lugia can control the weather, both raising and calming storms, and is the only Pokémon capable of keeping the Legendary birds of Kanto from fighting. It has been said that its wings are powerful enough to create storms that last for more than a month. Because it is so powerful, Lugia isolates itself and lives deep beneath the ocean waves.
