Moltres is a duel type Fire/Flying Legendary Pokemon. Along with Articuno and Zapdos, it is one of the three legendary birds of Kanto. Moltres sheds embers with every flap of its wings, creating a brilliant flash of flames. By dipping itself into the magma of an active volcano, this Pokemon can heal itself. It migrates to the south with the coming of spring, and is said to bring an early springtime to cold lands. Galarian Moltres is a Dark/Flying regional variant of the Legendary Pokemon. The Pokemon's anger takes form of the flames which its typing lost.
