* In Generation I, the legendary birds all had different base [[stats|stat]] totals - Articuno's was 485, Zapdos's was 490, and Moltres's was 495. Since Generation II, when the {{stat|Special}} split occurred, all three legendary birds have had an equal base stat total of 580. | * In Generation I, the legendary birds all had different base [[stats|stat]] totals - Articuno's was 485, Zapdos's was 490, and Moltres's was 495.

* Starting with Platinum, they are the only legendary trio to be both fully stationary and [[Roaming Pokémon|roaming]] as wild Pokémon in the various games they appear in. In comparison, the [[lake guardians]] have one of their trio who roams, while {{p|Suicune}} of the [[legendary beasts]] roams in {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}, but is stationary in {{game|Crystal}}, as well in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}. | * Starting with Platinum, they are the only legendary trio to be both fully stationary and [[Roaming Pokémon|roaming]] as wild Pokémon in the various games they appear in.

* Since there were only four tracks of battle music in the [[Generation I]] games (wild, Trainer, Gym Leader/Elite Four, and Champion), normal wild battle music is played when the legendary birds and {{p|Mewtwo}} are encountered. In {{2v2|FireRed|LeafGreen}}, a special remix of the normal wild battle theme is used for the legendary birds, Mewtwo, and the [[legendary beasts]] when encountered. However, the legendary birds have never had a battle theme composed specifically for them, unlike the other legendary trios before [[Generation V]]. | * Since there were only four tracks of battle music in the [[Generation I]] games (wild, Trainer, Gym Leader/Elite Four, and Champion), normal wild battle music is played when the legendary birds and {{p|Mewtwo}} are encountered.

* The legendary birds can be caught in more games than any other legendary Pokémon, as they can be caught in ten [[main series]] games in Japan. However, they can only be caught in nine games {{game3|Red and Green|worldwide|s}}, tying them with {{p|Lugia}} and {{p|Ho-Oh}}. | * The legendary birds can be caught in more games than any other legendary Pokémon, as they can be caught in ten [[main series]] games in Japan.
