From Bulbapedia Lugia is first legendary Pokémon to appear in three consecutive normal episodes of the anime, with Meloetta being the second. Lugia is the only legendary Pokémon to be part of the Pokémon All-Stars DVD series. Lugia has been the mascot of 3 games, namely: Pokémon Silver, Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness, and Pokémon SoulSilver, making it the record holder of most number of times used as a game mascot. Before the introduction of Pokémon Gold and Silver, Lugia was known as "Pokémon X." In the anime, Dr. Namba also refers to Lugia as "Pokémon X." In Gold and Silver, Lugia, like [garden tool]-Oh, has the same encounter music as normal wild Pokémon. The same was true for the legendary beasts before they received unique encounter music in Crystal. However, Lugia and [garden tool]-Oh got their own unique battle themes in HeartGold and SoulSilver. Despite not being a Water-type, Lugia has occasionally been depicted as a Water-type in the TCG. Lugia is one of two Pokémon that has defenses over 100 at Level 100 in Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team if not given any vitamins or gummis, the other being Deoxys. Though Lugia is officially genderless like most other legendary Pokémon, it has an unmistakably masculine voice when it speaks through telepathy to Ash in thesecond movie. It shares this trait with Mewtwo, as seen primarily in the first movie, Darkrai, as seen in the movie The Rise of Darkrai, and Arceus, as seen inArceus and the Jewel of Life. Incidentally, certain episodes show parent Lugia and a younger Lugia child. This shows that there is likely a breeding population of Lugia. The only other attempt to have another of a legendary Pokémon was in the case of Mewtwo, as it was created as an enhanced clone of Mew. Lugia and Latias are the only legendary Pokémon in the anime to be seen being able to produce offspring. [*]Lugia is tied with [garden tool]-Oh for the highest base Special Defense of all Flying types. This also ties them for the fourth highest Special Defense of all Pokémon. Lugia has the second highest Special Defense of all Psychic types, only being beaten by Deoxys in Defense forme. Lugia is tied with [garden tool]-Oh and Rayquaza for highest base stat total of all Flying-types. Together with Mewtwo it has the highest base stat total of all Psychic-types. [*]In the book adaptation of The Power of One, Lugia is mistakenly referred to as a Water/Flying type Pokémon. [*]Lugia is the only non-Dragon-type Pokémon able to learn Dragon Rush via leveling up. [*]Lugia's Generation IV and V Pokédex entries that mention it being able to cause a 40-day storm may be a biblical reference. [*]When Lugia's Shiny form is shown in Pokémon Stadium 2, it is green rather than pink.
