![]() Kappa 13:39, 8 February 2006 (UTC) Reply In light of your comment I've created a disambiguation page which should be less confusing to non-pokemon fans.(as far as that goes, maybe the site for the chinese phoenix could use a sentence or two describing any possible differences between the chinese and the japanese bird) it was a minor quibble anyway, i was just slightly surprised to come to this site looking for mythology info and find a rabid fan site centered on a cartoon character and totaly oblivious to the actual mythological origins of it. I don't think the Japanese Ho-oh needs a separate article from Fenghuang, and it's mentioned in the first paragraph.maybe at least some mention of this would be in order, don't you think? 213.172.234.103 13:40, 7 January 2006 (UTC) Reply it's not like the pokemon people invented it. guys? the Hōō is also a major mythical beast in the japanese mythology, based on the chinese Fenghuang. Arcanine was also supposed to be a legendary (Episode 2 has a picture of Arcanine with the Legendary Birds)Įr. 68.47.234.131 00:11, 12 January 2006 (UTC) Reply Certain people say that Ho-oh was supposed to be in the original games, planned from the beginning, but was edited out. The anime introduced double battles long before Ruby and Sapphire too, so the transfer of ideas between the games & anime isn't entirely one way. Then Nintendo decided to incorporate it into the new games. It was probably just a Pokémon based on the Fenghuang. ![]() Even if Nintendo was already working on them in early '97, the anime producers probably didn't know about them. MasterXiam 22:53, 13 December 2005 (UTC) Reply It probably had nothing to do with the Gold and Silver games. And, as mentioned in the article, it shadows Feng-Huang in showing itself to those who are supposed to become great heroes or sages. It's basically to show that there are still Pokémon to be discovered. Why did Ho-oh appear in the first episode? Is it foreshadowing the Gold and Silver games? The 100 new pokemon? Every time I see that scene I get so confused on why they showed Ho-oh?
