The Mystery of the Mystical Birds
--Fact: The Mystical Birds are 3 legendary bird type Pokemon.
It is said that if a trainer holds all three Mystical Birds,
the world would be thrown into chaos.--
Do you know the secret in the names of the Mystical Birds?
The names let you in on the type of bird as well as the number
they hold in a number sequence up to three. Let me Explain....
Articuno- Articuno is first up. The prefix and sufix to
this bird are Artic-uno. The Arctic is a very cold place on Earth.
Therefore, this is implieing that Articuno is an ice-bird Pokemon.
Uno, being the sufix, is a spanish word meaning one.
Zapdos- Zapdos is next. It is an electric bird type Pokemon...
hence the Zap. The dos at the end of it's name is also Spanish. It means two.
Moltres- Moltres is the final legendary bird Pokemon. The molt in it's name is like the molt in
molten lava, telling us that it's a fire bird Pokemon. Tres is also another
Spanish term. As you might've guessed, it means three.
