Raikou

Description
Raikou is the Electric legendary beast of the trio including Entei and Suicune. It was one of the weekly codes for v.3.3. However the dogs were then deleted from everybody's profiles in the next release. The only way to keep Raikou was to win Sam's contest, to be of the first 10 to complete Vermillion Gym and send him proof.

Sam launched a poll to see if the users of PTD wanted the 3 Legendary Beasts to put officially and permanently put into the game. Sam did so, but their spawn rate is even less than the shiny spawn rate. He also added that they would never be shiny until the game got a sequel.

Raikou is a yellow tiger-like creature with black stripes that resemble lightning bolts and a white under-side. Raikou has a skinny, light-blue tail with a star-shaped formation at the end. Raikou appears to have a grayish-purple cape that is supposedly made of thunderclouds. Most of Raikou's face is white with a light-blue "X" on its face and a gray crest on its forehead. Raikou has red eyes and long fangs in its upper jaws that make its appearance similar to the sabre-tooth cat.
