Revered as the guardian of the skies and the bringer of good fortune, Ho-Oh is said to fly across the world on its magnificent seven-colored wings, leaving a rainbow behind its path. Legend states that its feathers glow with seven colors depending on the angle at which they are seen, and that anyone who sees Ho-Oh is promised eternal happiness. Ho-Oh is also famously known for resurrecting three Pokémon from the Burned Tower in Ecruteak City, transforming them into the legendary beasts Raikou, Entei, and Suicune. Its natural habitat is high in the sky, often seen soaring above mountainous regions, and its diet is believed to consist of spiritual energy. In the games, Ho-Oh is a central figure in the Johto region's mythology and is typically the mascot for the Gold version. In the anime, it made an early and impactful appearance in the very first episode, flying over Ash Ketchum, setting a precedent for its mysterious and powerful presence throughout the series. Its cultural significance extends beyond the games and anime, often symbolizing hope, rebirth, and majesty in the Pokémon universe.
