MEh, Ho-Oh does have a pretty good attack stat though.
Still Lugia wins with via spamming Waterfall.
Waterfall alone ain't gonna beat it.

Sacred Fire isnt going to help too much.
And Lugia's no Deoxys, so Psycho Boost won't KO Ho-oh.
Also, Ho-oh resurrected three dead Pokemon in a burnt tower and in doing so, created Raikou, Entei, and Suicune. Lugia hasn't displayed such mystical powaz. At least not on that level.
Overall damage wise Aqua tail and a Crit Aeroblast > Sacred fire. And as Lugia is mentioned to have control of the weather ie keep rain dance on, hydro pump and aqua tail do more damage. (especially aqua tail now) Lugias speed will allow it to get the first/more hits in and evade.
Yeah Ho-oh has the healing powers but Lugia has the destructive ones. A flutter of his wings can blow apart houses, strong flap can make a 40 day storm.

Ho-oh's creation of the three beasts > blowing apart houses and causing 40-day storms
Ho-oh also has much greater control of his powers. Lugia isolates itself deep underwater to hibernate because he has such trouble controlling his.

Even with a critical hit, Aeroblast still isn't very effective against Ho-oh, and not like Sacred Fire is the only decent move its got against Lugia. Although Lugia has a good chance of winning here, it's not guaranteed either, and can still go either way depending on the circumstances. I've beaten plenty of Lugias with a Ho-oh before.

Easily countered by Sunny Day.This is true, although a Ho-oh holding Choice Scarf, Salac Berry, Quick Claw, or some other held item of the sort can fix that problem easily enough.

Ho-oh's powaz go beyond just healing, as he transformed three deceased Pokemon into elemental legendary beasts that race casually across the land. Raikou shoots bolts of lightning from the rain clouds on its back, Entei shoots flames hotter than volcanic magma & can make a volcano erupt on the other side of the world when it roars, and Suicune purifies water & can walk across it, along with having a variety of wind powers; and Ho-oh created all three of them.Ho-oh's creation of the three beasts > blowing apart houses and causing 40-day storms

Reincarnate the beasts to stronger forms, and giving life < destruction in a fight.
