Suicune, Raikou or Entei
 
Which do you prefer among of this three legendary dogs?

Raging Umbreon July 30th, 2014 8:49 PM

Suicune is my favorite of the legendary trio.

Pepperton August 1st, 2014 8:33 PM

Raikou, but Suicune is not far behind. Something about Raikou's color scheme has always intrigued me, and it's one of the few electric type pokemon I actually consider using, and having an electric type is pretty well valued ahha.

I prefer Suicune, though Raikou's pretty cool, too. I really love Suicune's design, stats, movepool, and shiny color palette, and its cry is so pretty ;; As for Raikou, I like its design and movepool; its stats and cry are all right as well. It's also the beast I have the most trouble acquiring in GSC (without using the Master Ball, that is), but hey, I love a challenge nowadays!

Suicune and Raikou are really close, but Suicune has such an elegant design that I just have to go with it. Raikou is pretty awesome though... but sorry Entei.

Mirri August 5th, 2014 10:00 PM

I will always be biased towards Raikou, followed by Suicune if you had to ask. He's so ridiculously awesome. I mean, who can't love a big 'ol saber-tooth thunder cat? Not to mention he has a big fluffy cloud on his butt! I also imagine petting him would be wonderful due to extremely soft and fluffy fur, but would probably make all the hair on your body stand on end. :p

I love him so much, I have him tattooed on my arm. Possibly obsessed? Hmm...

Raikou because he's the first Legendary Beast I bumped into & his sprite from Gold was awesome & much superior to his redesigned one... I also liked that it had a consistent color scheme (shades of orange & yellow) to represent thunder & the extra fluffiness perfectly represented clouds.

Here's fluffy Raikou before the redesign:

And here's the new, more edgy Raikou:

Suicune by far the best pokemon out of the three. The other two are awesome though.

Also why no love for Entei? =(

Pendraflare August 15th, 2014 6:01 PM

My favorite of the three would have to be Raikou, I think it looks more badass than either of the two and it's an Electric-type, my favorite typing of them. Very cool stuff.

Because he already got his movie and some tv stuff. The real question is why has Raikou been so under loved by nintendo given how awesome his design is and how many people love him?

Bounsweet August 16th, 2014 3:16 PM

Damn, I was about to be the odd-ball to pick Entei but I fell for Suicune at last second in the poll lol.

I like them all equally, but in different ways. If I had to be honest with myself though, I probably do like Entei more than Suicune. I'm really digging Suicune lately though because of the success its given me battling online with my Crocune set. Raikou is pretty cool too, but it just doesn't have as much appeal as the other two have for me.

Hiatus August 17th, 2014 3:29 PM

Suicune would have to be my most favorite of all, surely. Not only does it look good in-design, in my opinion, but it also performs pretty beautifully when it comes to battling. Have used it plenty of times previously, and enjoyed each and every of my experience. Second is most likely Raikou, with third being Entei.

Limey-chan August 19th, 2014 3:17 AM

Eh, i'm honestly not a huge fan of the Legendary Dogs. I think I once tried for about 20 minutes to catch them then gave up because I wasn't really too bothered about not owning them. Ho-Oh and Lugia were both awesome; the dogs? Ehh.

Out of the three though, Raikou was probably the least 'meh'.

Tame August 19th, 2014 8:07 AM

All of em are pretty cool but I'd say Raikou.

Synerjee August 19th, 2014 9:32 AM

Suicune wins my vote hands down. It is the most elegant and most beautiful of the three dogs, plus Water-types are cool. I would've voted for Entei because of its appearance in the Unown movie or Raikou for its awesomeness, but after looking at all three of them from a non-subjective viewpoint, Suicune still has my vote.

pyx August 25th, 2014 11:58 PM

Suicune because he just looks cool. yes I judge my favorites just on how they look XD

Codename Peace August 27th, 2014 1:58 AM

I always love Suicune!
Yes, Suicune looks cool, but I sometimes liked Water type Pokemon, like Suicune.

Charizard :P September 9th, 2014 2:33 PM

Suicune forever! With its great design, great stats, and a lovely cry to boot, Suicune has to be my second favourite Legendary. :) As for the other ones, I favor Raikou over Entei.

ShinyUmbreon189 September 19th, 2014 11:28 AM

Suicune. My first Pokemon game was Crystal so Suicune by default is my favorite. Also has the most appealing physical appearance than the other 2. and it's stats and story line are great. I'm not too fond of Raikou and I like Entei as well.

KeyRogue September 19th, 2014 8:19 PM

I think almost every one of them but Suicune is the best for me, Entei is second, and third is Raikou of course. :)

Humble Hook September 24th, 2014 2:34 PM

Entei all the way. Love using fire types, and i love the design.

I have a 1 inch tall Entei figurine i keep with me always.
It's name is Memphis.

HollyYoshi September 27th, 2014 1:29 PM

Suicune all the way. I find its design to be quite good and the best out of the three. I also remember it being quite good in battling when I used it in Pokemon Crystal.

Dedenne1 September 27th, 2014 1:53 PM

Suicune can learn ice beam and purify water and hydro pump and the sheer speed theres also a reason why they made a pokemon crystal and why suicune is the leading pokemon although the other 2 are good suicune in my opinion is the best

Sheep October 27th, 2014 1:33 PM

A little longer and this thread will die! Noo!

Anyways, I prefer Suicune for its story and involvement within Pokemon Crystal. I find it to be very elegant and mysterious - the perfect legendary Pokemon. Even though it was a bit weak for me in Crystal, I still enjoyed having it on my team to tank things when I needed to heal. Thank you mr. legendary beast.

pkmin3033 October 27th, 2014 11:23 PM

I'm going with Raikou, for the way he always gets the Thundercats theme playing in my head whenever I see him. I know, most people say he's a dog, but he looks like a sabre-toothed tiger to me and I'm rolling with that. Plus I just prefer his design; he looks so much more dynamic than the other two.

...and there is also the fact that I caught him first time in Silver, whilst Entei and Suicune gave me the run-around for months. I was not a happy eleven year old.
