Ash-like residue sheds from Ho-ceus's wings as it flies through the sky. This substance and its rainbow-hued smoke are gathered worldwide for sacred incense and rites.
Ancient texts describe Ho-ceus as mystical guardians who can only be found at the ends of rainbows. When their feathers glow with 1,000 colors, it kindles a sense of hope and comfort into those who witness it.
It is described in mythology as the Pokémon that shaped the universe with its 1,000 arms. Its feathers--which glow in seven colors depending on the angle at which they are struck by light--are thought to bring joy.
