Lugia is a legendary Psychic/Flying-type Pokémon. In the games Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen, it can be found in the Whirl Islands. The player must first defeat the Team Rocket Grunts blocking the entrance to the island. After defeating them, Lugia can be found at the bottom of the island's central whirlpool. Lugia is also found in the Cave of Origin in Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald. In Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness, it can be snagged from Cipher Peon Dakim at Citadark Isle. Lugia is also a necessity for completion in all main series games it appears in.
