Moltres is a Fire/Flying-type {{iw|Bulbapedia|Legendary Pokémon}} introduced in {{iw|bulbapedia|Generation I}}, and is categorized within the Pokédex at #146 as the "Flame Pokémon". Along with [[Articuno]] and [[Zapdos]], Moltres is part of a trio commonly referred to as the {{iw|bulbapedia|legendary birds}}. Along with the legendary birds, Moltres received a Dark/Flying-type Galarian form in Generation VIII


It is stated that every flap of its wings creates a dazzling flash of flames that can brighten the night sky, and it arrival signals the end of winter and beginning of spring. If Moltres is injured, it is known to dip itself in magma to heal itself. It's Galarian form creates a more sinister, but equally flame-like aura that can consume the soul of anyone who lays their eyes upon it, becoming burned-out shadows of themselves.
It can learn [[Fly]] in every game with {{iw|bulbapedia|HM02}}.

Its bright orange color and fiery aspect lends to its overwhelming appearance. {{iw|bulbapedia|Sky Attack|move}}, the strongest of flying moves, is a perfect fit for this burning phenom, but it obviously also excels at powerful [[bulbapedia:Fire (type)|Fire-type]] moves.
