Minos is right, there are in fact multiples of the dogs/ho-oh. However there is only one of each in a region, possibly showing they are territorial animals

No no, I know you all know it is fiction. I'm just saying the in-game myths are mostly just that to the in-game people. I mean, everyone just seems so dumb except for a slight few characters, so most in the game would believe almost everything. o.o

"We don't know how this egg got here, but your Pokemon had it." That is gold, there.

Yeah the game charactors are pretty dumb, but legendwise i can sorta see why. If there was a 20ft tall behemoth living in the icy tower behind you, would you really wanna think about it?
Using snowpoint as a second example, there are various obstacles/organisations that stop you reaching these beasts. Perhaps they are just ignorant of their slumbering existance?

My theory with the Regis is that they were sealed away by ancient people. To make it harder for people to awaken these dangerous creatures they imprisoned them in different regions. They were kept so secret that eventually everyone forgot about them (except for the myth in pacifilog).

(Bet you were a bit upset to find out most of it was the alphabet...hehe)

So what did Regigigas do to deserve being sealed away forever? (My theory is in the intro to my fanfic)

I think it was humans being humans; we are scared of what we do not understand
Caveman#1: "Look at that huge beast! It is capable of crushing our mud-huts with its feet! Should we ask it politely not to squish us?"
Caveman#2: "Na, lets wait for it to go to sleep and imprison it in a giant tower!"

The phrase that i think of is "Out of sight, out of mind" Perhaps Snowpoint city have been in on it all along

I'm not going to bother reading the multiple pages this thread gained while I was away. It looks like the current topic is Regigigas, so I'll give you my theory on that.

Regigigas probably sealed itself away once its work was done. We can't be sure until the 11th movie, though.

I would agree, but i thought it would seal itself in a cave. It can literally drag continents apart, I dont see why it would bother to build a tower around itself

Perhaps people in ancient times built the Snowpoint Temple as homage to Regigigas?

Na, the story in the regi cave (RSE) just indicates to me it was forced into confinement. The fact that regirock is made of multiple kinds of stone shows that they could have been taken from shinnoh to segregate them from the big fella.

I think its a hint of greek mythology, for instance - Zeus ~ perhaps thats Arceus, perhaps Lugia is Poseidon and the list goes on.

I think its really creative of gamefreak to do these legendarys, but I really do wish they would make it seem like these arn't just words, like perhaps the pokemon moving, roaring and stuff and like seeing it surf on the waves, make a earthquake and perhaps something fall in your way and you have to find out how to get passed it. Like letting the pokemon being more almost active in the game, as normally its just a pokemon sprite standing their, waiting for you to come to it.

By god, you have it my friend! You have found the answer! Zeus had many sons and ones that betrayed him and ones that were other gods! Budgie, you are a genius! Unless someone suggested this before him. xD

Oh it's all as confusing as the Zelda games' story lines! D:

all i am going to say is that Arceus is genuinly the creator of everything, including palkia and dialga. if you're still questioning his mighty power, than just read my signature

I don't know. Those things can move really fast. Perhaps they can run across water, and therefore there is only one of each?

Nope, there are multiples. In either colleceum or XD multiple Ho-ohs are seen, inmplying they all guard different pokes. Besides, the dogs seem territorial to me, which is kinda backed up by the fact that they never leave the map to another region.

You're stating the obvious, arceus was established as the creator in the first hour of this thread

If you can show me a scene where there are multiple Ho-Ohs, not counting a battle, then I'll believe you. Otherwise, how do we know it's not just the same Ho-Oh all the time?

Like unlimited NIGHTS, I won't read all these pages either so I'll get straight to my point. So Kyogre created the seas right? Shouldn't that mean that he is the king? Also, Manaphy is the prince of the sea right? So if Kyogre passes away wouldn't his son "evolve" and take over(XD)Lugia is guardian of the sea right?Does that mean he's the god of the sea or the knight (as in he guards Kyogre). And, Giratina is in a "cemetery" called Turnback Cave which links this world to the world of beings that passed away. Since that is a form of space, does that mean Palkia created Giratina to manage the "UnderWorld"

I think I have more to say but I forgot it so I will try to remember.

Yes he is

Yep

Possibly, but kyogre's been around since the creation of the planet and his fued with groudon has ended. Lugia wont wanna kill him so i dont see any way of him dying (For the moment....)
Lugia is guardian of the sea right?
Yep
Does that mean he's the god of the sea or the knight (as in he guards Kyogre).
Not really, he guards the see not kyogre
And, Giratina is in a "cemetery" called Turnback Cave which links this world to the world of beings that passed away. Since that is a form of space, does that mean Palkia created Giratina to manage the "UnderWorld"
Thats the aceepted theory, but there's no real evidence. I personally think otherwise
I think I have more to say but I forgot it so I will try to remember.
Ok

Something else to think about.

Celebi is the Guardian of Time, yet Dialga is the Ruler of time. Who is higher, and does this mean the two are connected in some way?

Here's an old arguament that i love starting up: Is celebi really a guardian of time???? It is never specified. He's a time traveller, thats a given, but i don't think he's a guardian. This is backed up by the 4th gen Dex entry:
Quote:
It has the power to travel across time, but it is said to appear only in peaceful times
How is it meant to protect time, when it will not appear anywhere that isnt peaceful?

My theory is backed up by the LG dex entry and the RSE entry:
Quote:
This Pokémon wanders across time. Grass and trees flourish in the forests in which it has appeared
Quote:
This Pokémon came from the future by crossing over time. It is thought that so long as Celebi appears, a bright and shining future awaits us
I see it more as a super-evolved pokemon from the future. As an example, in a way similar to Hiro in the TV show Heroes. I think people overlook the fact that celebi can travel anywhere, not just anytime. Being able to master time and space shows he's connected to both the entities if anything.

The short answer: Dialga reins supreme. If it wasnt for dialga celebi would have no time to travel through (If that makes sense)

I remember watching the fist ever episode of Pokémon to go in air on TV and the sec end i seen it i loved it but i always wondered why they never showed ho-oh until like YEARS after it first appeared the first few episodes where basically about ash becoming a Pokémon trainer to later find the legendary Pokémon ho-oh then all of a sudden they quit talking about it and the story went into a complete different direction meaning that thy are probley making every episode and game as they go and the people who make Pokémon them self don't know what/when the ending will be so maybe them ended messing something up there are till lots of secrets in Pokémon we don't know about yet maybe Pokémon will never end
