The island city of Alto Mare's history is intertwined with the following tale:Ī long time ago on an island called Alto Mare there lived an old man and a woman. 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. When the legend is revisited in For Ho-Oh the Bells Toll!, however, the story more closely parallels the game version, but the war aspect remains. He says that invaders came and tried to steal Ho-Oh, who resisted and fled, and then they burned down the tower. In A Ghost of a Chance, Morty says the two towers are the original Tin Tower, which burned down, and a rebuilt one.
The Brass Tower is left the way it is as a reminder of what can be lost and regained.Ī similar legend is addressed in the anime. While Lugia is said to return to the Ecruteak City only when some pure heart appears before it. According to legend, when the souls of Pokémon and humans commune, upon the emergence of a Trainer who has the ability to touch the souls of Pokémon, Ho-Oh will return from the heavens. Lugia fled due to being overwhelmed by the distress caused by fire damaging the Brass Tower and decided to live in the ocean's depths. Ho-Oh fled due to the violence of the people who feared its power. Ho-Oh and Lugia haven't been seen since the fire. It is believed that the Legendary beasts will return only when the trio is ready to trust humans again. The three Pokémon, knowing their own power, and choosing not to retaliate, fled, running like the wind off into the grassland to avoid being harmed by the townspeople of Ecruteak City. The reason was the people feared Ho-Oh's power to manipulate life and try to use violence on the Legendary beasts. When the Pokémon appeared, they struck awe and terror in those who saw their rise. The Pokémon are said to embody three powers: the lightning that struck the tower, the fire that burned the tower, and the rain that put out the fire. Three nameless Pokémon perished in the fire, but Ho-Oh descended from the sky and resurrected them. So Lugia decided to call upon rain to battle the fire until the blaze was finally extinguished, but it had already burnt to the ground. Lugia at first tried to use the winds to stop the flame, but it threatened to destroy the town in the process. It was engulfed in flames that raged for three days. Lugia's peaceful rest was disturbed by a lightning storm that grew until a powerful lightning bolt struck the Brass Tower. However, about 150 years before the games' events, something terrible happened as the town was bathed in the moonlit night. A friendship of harmony was formed between the people who communicated with the two Legendary birds. Both birds were said to be the guardian of the skies and seas.
Both towers became the roost of powerful flying Pokémon Lugia and Ho-Oh respectively with Lugia residing at Brass Tower while Ho-oh for the Bell. They were the Brass Tower in the west, which was said to awaken Pokémon, and the Bell Tower in the east, where Pokémon were said to rest. But when one burned down, both Pokémon flew away, never to return.ħ00 years before Generation II, the people of Ecruteak built two nine-tier towers with the hopes of fostering friendship and hope between Pokémon and humans.
There's a legend that has been passed down by Ecruteak Gym Leaders for many years: The Brass Tower and Bell Tower in Ecruteak City
Unless an exceptional trainer appears to calm the wrath of the gods.Įnglish dub Disturb not the harmony of Fire, Ice, or Lightning Lest these Titans wreak destruction Upon the world in which they clash Though the Water's Great Guardian shall arise to quell the fighting Alone its song will fail Thus the earth shall turn to ash O Chosen One Into thine hands bring together all three Their treasures combined tame the Beast of The Sea From the trio of islands, ancient spheres shall you take For between life and death, all the difference you'll make Climb to the shrine to right what is wrong And the world shall be healed by the Guardian's song.Ī festival is held on Shamouti Island to honor the Chosen One. The god of the sea will appear to stop the destruction.īut, it will not prevent the world's destruction. The god of fire, god of lightning, and god of ice must not be touched.Įlse, heaven and earth will be angered and the world will face destruction.
