Ho-Oh is considered the guardian of the skies and has a mythical power to resurrect the dead. Prior to [[Generation VI]], Ho-Oh was the [[signature move|only known Pokémon]] capable of learning the move {{m|Sacred Fire}}. It is said that when it flies its huge wings create bright, colorful rainbows. The rare few who bear witness to Ho-Oh are promised eternal happiness. Ho-Oh used to perch at the top of the various towers located across the Johto region: the [[Bell Tower]] until the [[Burned Tower|Brass Tower]] was destroyed by fire and the [[Goldenrod Radio Tower|Goldenrod Tower]] in ancient times. It now presumably flies through the world's skies in search of a Trainer with a pure heart. Ho-Oh loves [[Ho-Oh Treat]]s made by [[Snacksworth]], who once witnessed it flying over him in the past.

==In the anime==
===Main series===
[[File:Ho-Oh anime.png|thumb|250px|Ho-Oh in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
According to the {{pkmn|anime}}, Ho-Oh lived in the [[Bell Tower|Tin Tower]] in ancient times. When a war broke out, burning both the Tin Tower and the Brass Tower down, it created {{p|Raikou}}, {{p|Entei}}, and {{p|Suicune}}, and all four disappeared. Later, a new Tin Tower was erected, but Ho-Oh since then has never come back for sure. A {{m|Sacred Fire|sacred flame}} from Ho-Oh burns in the [[Ho-Oh Shrine]] at [[Mt. Silver]]; it was obtained during the same war.
====Major appearances====
=====[[Ho-Oh (anime)]]=====
On occasion, Ho-Oh would only be seen by {{Ash}}, and always fleetingly. This trend began at the end of ''[[EP001|Pokémon - I Choose You!]]'', where Ash saw it flying alongside a rainbow across the sky after the thunderstorm. In ''[[M20|I Choose You!]]'', which is set in a continuity different from the main series, Ho-Oh played a major role.
====Minor appearances====
A Ho-Oh appeared in the opening sequence of ''[[M06|Jirachi: Wish Maker]]''.
In ''[[M08|Lucario and the Mystery of Mew]]'', a Ho-Oh appeared in the intro, and then as a {{m|transform}}ation of {{OBP|Mew|M08}}.

It was used by the [[Masked Man]] to kidnap children showing remarkable talent in his scheme to capture {{adv|Celebi}}, including {{adv|Green}} and {{adv|Silver}}, six years prior to the start of the entire manga.
Prior to the events of the {{MangaArc|Gold, Silver & Crystal}}, the Masked Man had lost control over Ho-Oh, and thus attacked the [[Bell Tower|Tin Tower]] using [[Neo Team Rocket]] to prompt Ho-Oh to return to [[Ecruteak City]]. Ho-Oh was later seen at [[Indigo Plateau]] under the Masked Man's control, alongside {{p|Lugia}}, wreaking havoc and destruction. It was then lent to [[Karen]] and [[Will]] to fight Green with alongside {{p|Lugia}}, and nearly defeated her {{adv|legendary birds}}, but both of them were eventually brought back to their senses and freed.

When released from a {{i|Poké Ball}}, Ho-Oh unleashes a spiral of {{m|Sacred Fire}} that deals massive amounts of damage to any opponent caught in it. However, it appears very rarely.
====Melee trophy information====
''As it soars around the skies of the world, this Rainbow Pokémon leaves a trail of rainbows and myths in its wake. Its signature move is called Sacred Fire, and it is believed to appear only before trainers who are pure of heart. If you see a trainer with Ho-oh, you can assume that catching it took a lot of work.''
====Brawl trophy information====
''"A Rainbow Pokémon. On sparkling wings of seven colors, Ho-Oh leaves a rainbow behind as it flies. Legend says that Ho-Oh suppressed a war that scorched the land in ancient times. Its attack Sacred Fire can melt ice in an instant and also damage the target with burns. Ho-Oh will show its solemn figure only for the most righteous Trainers."''
===[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS/Wii U|Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]/[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]===
Ho-Oh returns as an occasional stage hazard in the {{DL|Pokémon League (Kalos)|Blazing Chamber}} of the {{st|Kalos Pokémon League}} stage. Rarely appearing, it makes the flames supporting the platforms flare up with higher intensity, likely KOing any characters unfortunate enough to be on the platforms at the time.
====Trophy Information====
''This Pokémon flies through the skies, trailing rainbows from its wings, and is said to promise eternal happiness to all who see it. Supposedly, it appears every once in a while in the Fire-type Elite Four Trainer's room in the Kalos Pokémon League stage. Its screams cause pillars of fire to rise all the way to the ceiling.''
===[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]===
Ho-Oh appears as a {{sbw|Spirit}}.
