{{tt|されば、天地怒り世界は破滅に向かう。|sareba, tenchi ikari, sekai wa hametsu ni mukau}}

===The Towers of Ecruteak===

A similar legend is addressed in the {{pkmn|anime}}. In ''[[EP181|A Ghost of a Chance]]'', [[Morty]] says the two towers are the original [[Bell Tower|Tin Tower]], which burned down, and a rebuilt one. He says that invaders came and tried to steal Ho-Oh, who resisted and fled, and then they burned down the tower. When the legend is revisited in ''[[EP227|For Ho-Oh the Bells Toll!]]'', however, the story more closely parallels the game version, but the war aspect remains. [[Ash Ketchum]] seems to fulfill the prophecy as a Trainer who has the ability to touch the souls of Pokémon, as he has encountered both Ho-Oh and Suicune several times.

===Legend of the Regis===

In addition to the Unown, Braille has also been used to tell legends. In {{3v2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}}, the {{player}} can use the Braille to uncover {{p|Regirock}}, {{p|Regice}}, and {{p|Registeel}}.

:''Once after a volcano violently erupted, the Snowpoint Forest, rich in natural resources and beauty, was transformed into a sea of flowing lava.''

:''Later Regigigas transformed itself into a stone of life and fell into a deep sleep, while in order to protect Regigigas, the legend says that Regice, Regirock, and Registeel transformed into three guardian pillars made of the basic elements of rock, ice, and steel.''

===Sinnoh's creation===

==Generation V==

The legends of [[Lacunosa Town]] dictate that when a meteorite crashed outside of the city limits, {{p|Kyurem}} would come out at night and eat both Pokémon and people. To prevent further raids, the people of Lacunosa built walls and forbade night travel. Even during the events of {{4v|Black|White|2}} everyone in Lacunosa Town stays indoors at night.
