Honestly, is it even possible to ask a harder question regarding Pokémon? There are hundreds, or maybe even thousands of different theories for how the legendary Pokémon were created and all of them are equally true. I think the origin of the legendary Pokémon is one of those things that were never meant for people to know. It's kinda like the those things fans can come up with their own theories for and feel proud of themselves if their right when the information is revealed, except in this case you can't be right because there isn't any right theory... or something along those lines. O.o
If Kyogre is ruler of the sea then what is Lugia???
Lugia has always been refered to as the
guardian of the sea; not the ruler of the sea.

Kyogre - ruler of the sea
I don't think I have ever heard Kyogre being called the ruler of the sea in the games or the anime. (I don't watch the anime that much anymore, but meh...) I can't say anything about the manga, as I haven't read the R/S/E saga, but I don't think Kyogre was ever called the ruler of the sea in the manga, either. True, Kyogre is the creator of the sea, but that doesn't necessarily mean it's the ruler. And how is Kyogre supposed to rule the world when it's asleep? 'Course I could be wrong, but I haven't heard any other theories about Kyogre that actually make sense, so I'm sticking to mine untill I hear a better one.
Lugia is beast of the sea....
If you watched the movie, it would say heh
Uh... no! Lugia is the guardian of the sea, unless you're saying that the game Pokédexes are wrong. (And the games are much older than the anime, by the way.)
I'm not sure whether they ever mentioned Lugia being the guardian of the sea in the second Pokémon movie because it's a long time since I last saw it and I have only see the Finnish dub of it anyway, but the fact that it appeared when Articuno, Zapdos and Moltres awakened and messed up the underwater torrents or whatnot pretty much proves that Lugia is the guardian of the sea.
