>inb4 anime-only, not canonThe japanese trailer of HGSS shows Lugia leading the birds after showing Ho-Oh leading the beasts and in XY the cave where you find the Kanto birds is called "Sea-Spirit's Den", it's an even more obvious reference to Lugia in japanese where they call it "Den of the Watatsumi" (the watatsumi is the ancient dragon god of the waters known as "ryujin" in other legends, a clear inspiration for Lugia).

Ho-Oh = Sun day, fire phoenix, sky master of the Johto beasts
Lugia = Moon night, water dragon, sea master of the Kanto birds
