Much like how every region has a legendary trio, every region also has a legendary duo. These Pokémon often either share traits or are polar opposites. They are often found after the player gets past the Elite Four but aren't as important in the main storyline as the trios are.
Duos
The Mew duo
Mew and Mewtwo make up Kanto’s legendary duo. They are both psychic type feline-like Pokémon that are very elusive. Mewtwo was cloned from Mew, meaning the two share DNA and abilities. They were the two legendary Pokémon featured in Mewtwo Strikes Back, when they battled and were shown to be equal in power.
The Bird duo
The bird duo is the legendary duo of Johto that consists of Ho-Oh and Lugia. Ho-Oh and Lugia are often regarded as polar opposites. Lugia represents the sea, the color silver and is the mascot of Pokémon Silver while Ho-Oh represents the sky, the colors gold/rainbow, and is the mascot of Pokémon Gold. Both are also trio masters; Lugia is the master of the legendary birds while Ho-Oh is the master of the legendary beasts.
The Eon duo
The eon duo is a legendary duo of Hoenn that consists of Latias and Latios. They are region's roaming Pokémon and they share their typing, four of their base stats and even several moves they learn when they level up. Both were featured in the movie Pokémon Heroes.
The Subconscious duo
The subconscious duo is a legendary duo of Sinnoh that consists of Darkrai and Cresselia. Darkrai and Cresselia are commonly seen as polar opposites, just like the aforementioned Johto bird duo of Ho-Oh and Lugia. Darkrai and Cresselia are known as the subconscious duo because of how Darkrai is said to give people nightmares, while Cresselia does the opposite, and give people pleasant dreams. Furthermore, Cresselia and Darkrai also appear in Pokémon Mystery Dungeon 2 as enemies. They will both make their anime debuts in DP104.
Trivia
- Both Lugia and Ho-Oh were seen in the anime before Generation II was introduced; Ho-Oh was seen in the first episode and Lugia was seen in The Power of One, the second movie.
- Like Lugia and Ho-Oh, Latios and Latias were seen before Generation III was introduced. Both were seen in Pokémon Heroes, the fifth movie.
