I do not know its antithesis, but there are two possibilities. One is the peacock, which symbolizes the same things the phoenix does (the sun and the moon (the cosmos); life, death, and rebirth), but the peacock symbolizes vanity, whereas the phoenix does not, at least not to my knowledge. The other is the dragon, though the dragon represents the emperor and the phoenix represents the empress, representing the yin/yang, even though the dragon is a more sinister symbol in most cases, but despite this, the dragon and phoenix are both blissful lovers and mortal enemies. Now, if you want the inversion, it might possibly be the peacock, not the dragon (since the dragon is mostly the antithesis of the griffin or elephant). Another potentiality might be the vulture, but I do not know,

In China, the Fenghuang is a mythical bird superficially similar to the phoenix. It is the second most-respected legendary creature (second to the dragon), largely used to represent the empress and females, and as such as the counterpart to the Chinese dragon, traditionally seen as masculine or imperial. The phoenix is considered the greatest and the leader of birds.

The mythical phoenix sets fire to itself because that is it's own way of dying.

The phoenix continues this cycle of life for ever.

A good mythical creature could be a phoenix, a majestic bird that is reborn from its own ashes symbolizing renewal and transformation.
The phoenix is a mythical, sacred firebird that can be found in Greek and Roman mythologies, though its roots are of Greek origin. The only other true association to other mythology is that its inspiration may have come from a similar Egyptian mythology creature called the Bennu. There are other firebirds from other mythologies, such as Persian, but that creature is known as the Simurgh, and it is a benevolent, mythical bird.
the world's biggest mythical creature is pretty big
The phoenix is not endangered, it is mythical.
