In the games
In Pokémon Gold, Silver, and Pokémon Crystal, it flies to the roof of Tin Tower, causing the central pillar to shake, when the games' hero/heroine enters with a Rainbow Wing, one of its feathers. However, the means of obtaining the Rainbow Wing differs between the three versions.
In Pokémon FireRed, LeafGreen, and Pokémon Emerald, Ho-Oh is encountered in Navel Rock, a barren rock in the center of the Sevii Islands, along with Lugia. To reach Navel Rock via a Seagallop Ferry, one must have the Mysticticket, a promotional item.
Sacred Ash, an item that when used fully restores all party Pokémon's HP and status conditions, is considered closely related to Ho-Oh. In Gold, Silver, and Crystal, it is held by Ho-Oh. In FireRed, LeafGreen, and Emerald, it is found in the spot underneath Ho-Oh after defeating or catching it.
In the anime
According to the anime, Ho-Oh lived in Tin Tower in ancient times. But when war broke out, burning Tin Tower down, it created Raikou, Entei, and Suicune, and all four disappeared. Later, a new Tin Tower was erected, but Ho-Oh since then has never come back for sure. Ash however has currently witnessed Ho-Oh at least twice; indeed, it was the first Generation II Pokémon to appear in the anime. Also, a sacred flame burns in Dragon's Den which came from Ho-Oh in the same ancient war that burned Tin Tower; it still burns today, protected in a shrine. In the anime, Ho-Oh was last seen by Ash flying toward Hoenn.
Name origin
It's English name is simply another way of transcribing 鳳凰 hōō, which is the Japanese word for phoenix, specifically, the Chinese phoenix, or Fènghuáng.
Ho-Oh, like Moltres, is based on the legend of the Fenghuang. Many cultures viewed the phoenix as a symbol of resurrection, which links this Pokémon to the rebirth of itself as it rose from the ashes and had a hand in resurrecting Suicune, Raikou and Entei.
