(not meant to attack Ho-oh fans)

*Ho-oh got a cameo in the first episode. Lugia got...an entire movie.
*Lugia can learn various Water attacks, which extinguish Ho-oh's Fire type.
*Lugia is based on the crashing and rough ocean. Ho-oh is based on colorful pretty rainbows. (they make Scout cry)
*Lugia's fuckin' telepathic.
*Lugia's wings are like fingers, meaning he can flip you off at will.

I'd like to see Ho-oh try and flip someone off with those feathers. >:D
