Pokemon SoulSilver Version

Are you able to skip the sequence with Lugia? I don't really see the point of going after a legendary that i won't personally use for anything. Ordinarily i'd just encounter it and kill it, but I really just want to get to the Elite Four and such.

In the world there is nothing more submissive and weak than water. Yet for attacking that which is hard and strong nothing can surpass it.

Encountering the Legendary Pokemon in your Version is a must and cannot be avoided in any way other than hacking.

You can just go ahead and faint it, it will respawn once you defeat the E4.
