It is a bit sad. I have every games since Ruby and Sapphire, and have always traded between me and myself. Later on i found an apprentice, however i stopped competitive battles after a few PBR losses.
Back to topic. Well i have considered it a majestic legendary since the Bird type legendary Pokemon are made to look this way. In the early days they would not create a creature like Heatran. Looking at Heatran and Ho-oh, i would say Ho-oh is much better and noting that the last legendaryes are a somewhat more mature, looking at Dialga, Palkia, Giratina.
