* TheBusCameBack:
** In the final episode of the original series, after Ash parted ways with Misty and Brock, Ho-Oh makes another cameo appearance and Ash and Pikachu get to see it again, inspiring the young trainer to set off to Hoenn.
** In ''Advance Generation'', after a possessed Ash lost to Pyramid King Brandon, Ash, May, Brock and Max see Ho-Oh flying in the sky, which encourages Ash to do it better next time.
* EarlyBirdCameo: A very literal example, too. Ho-Oh appeared over a year before Pokémon Gold and Silver were released, and in fact its' appearance was the ''very'' first hint that the franchise would continue.
* EverythingsBetterWithRainbows: When it first appears before Ash, it flies past a rainbow. While it's an In-Universe fact Ho-Oh creates rainbows, this was obviously not known at the time it appeared, making it seem like a coincidence as Ho-Oh appeared shortly after a rainstorm.
* {{Foreshadowing}}: A Meta-example, but Ho-Oh's appearance was the first implication that the franchise would go beyond the first 151 Pokémon.
* {{Irony}}: In the present time, Ho-Oh hasn't appeared in the Johto region yet. Instead, it's always seen flying around in the Kanto region.
* OlympusMons: Discounting the opening, Ho-Oh is the ''first'' Legendary Pokémon to appear, long before anything about it was known. Ash didn't knew it was a Legendary Pokémon until he arrived at Ecruteak City.
* GoldAndWhiteAreDivine: In its debut, it was colored completely gold and had white sparkles sorrounding it, presumably because its ''actual'' color scheme hadn't been thought up yet.
* PlayingWithFire: Ho-Oh is part Fire-Type and its flames are tied to Johto's famous legends. In the anime, it is said that Ho-Oh burned the Brass Tower, which also resulted to the births of Suicune, Entei and Raikou. Its sacred flame is also part of the Silver Conference's ceremonial torch.

** As a Mega Steelix, it gets to be on the other end of this trope. Kiawe's Tortunator can't do squat against it, and even [[LimitBreak Inferno]] [[ElementalRockPaperScissors Overdrive]] is met with a NoSell.

* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: Brock takes his shirt and vest off, invoking WalkingShirtlessScene, when he is ready to Mega-Evolve Steelix. This is something the CasanovaWannabe ''never'' did when he was on the series unless it was a HotSpringsEpisode, and he was actually bathing.
