After watching the second movie I noticed that although Lugia is supposed to be a bird, it's only referred to as the 'Beast of the Sea', and the only true bird-like characterstic are the wings. Otherwise, it has a long tail, long neck and fang-like teeth, displayed on dragons. It also bears somewhat of a resemblance to Latias/Latios, which are also dragons.
So what do you think? Do you think Lugia closer to a bird, or a dragon? -------------------- Click above to go to the Party!

I think it looks more like a Dragon, because of the tail, the face and most of the body. Only the wings make it looks like a bird.
