Creature description

Lugia is a legendary Pokémon that first appeared in Pokémon Silver and Pokémon Gold versions, in the depths of the Whirl Islands in the Johto region. Its Pokédex number is #249. Lugia is a large dragon-like creature that is larger than its "counterpart", the phoenix Ho-oh. It has big white wings and most of it's body is covered in the color white. The stomach area of Lugia is blue along with it's eye color. Lugia is a legendary Pokémon and is unique for its species. It is a Psychic and Flying type Pokémon, the first combination of the two.

As a Poké Ball Pokémon

Lugia uses Aero Blast as its attack. Lugia will remain on the screen for a few seconds. Lugia will then fly off the screen and fly to the background of the stage (similar to the movement Ho-oh). Lugia will release it's Aero Blast that will travel around the stage. Any character that makes contact with the blast will take heavy damage and may die at low percentages. Any character that makes contact with Lugia while it's remaining on the stage will take damage. (Similar to Moltres). Lugia is a legendary Pokémon so its appearance out of a Poké Ball is rare. The chance of Lugia appearing out of a Poké Ball is doubled when the event match Legendary Pokémon is played. Lugia's attack does not harm the summoner.

As a trophy

Lugia features as a collectible trophy, unlocked as one of the 100+ trophies that can be collected randomly during normal play, such as in the Trophy Lottery and throughout the various Single-player Regular Matches. It reads as follows:
