What were Entei, Suicune and Raikou before they were revived?

[Aqueel]

RISE FROM YOUR GRAVE!

Hah, Altered Beast is amazing. I tried to play with my girlfriend a while ago, and she just went "What the hell!?" though =(

[Kuro]

Someone mind explaining the Beast Trio species? I've seen plenty of people say Cats, and others say Dogs. Raikou seems like a Tiger, Entei seems like a Lion, Suicune idk but from what bulbapedia says, a Maned Wolf/Leopard.


While making this post I decided to re check and surprizingly near everything said about them was also listed. http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Legendary_beasts

Including the eeveelution/beast relationship & being cat/dog.

What does everyone else see them as?

I never speculated that they came from the Eeveelutions, but it does make a bit more sense to their origin. I think there needs to be a special on them explaining the events that created them.

Raikou's best stats are Speed and Special Attack. Jolteon is the same way.

Entei's best stats are Attack and HP. Flareon shares the attack attribute. Both are regarded as the worst from their group.

Suicune's best stats are Defense and Special Defense. Vaporeon... shares neither, but has the most HP of all Eeveelutions. Both are regarded as the best from their family.

The fact that Suicune and Vaporeon seem to be the only mono-typed Water Pokemon that can learn Aurora Beam NATURALLY aside from that weirdo Octillery makes things more convincing...

Funny thing is, Ecruteak has a dance house which is filled with Kimono Girls using... Eeveelutions! Could it be? o_O

Yeah, sure... Eevees are miraculously "unable to be found in the wild"... but where are all these people getting them and the starter Pokemon? I guess it's just like that to make the players unhappy >:-[

Off topic but remember how weird Raikou looked in his Gold and Silver sprites? They fixed him in Crystal, but still... can't get over how different he began to look.

They were actually just normal dogs that died in the fire and got reincarnated by ho-oh.

Pokémon has normal animals?

Pokémon has normal animals?

Watch that anime episode when Ash and everyone are trapped inside S.S. Anne... when they look out the window; NORMAL FISHIES! O_O

[Fallen]

Did you think they ate the Pokemon? I mean Magikarp maybe. It just seems weird that people in the Pokemon world would eat Pokemon.

[FLOOTENKERP]

OMG That makes no sense... Pokémon... are animals in the world but there are normal animals and pi = 3.14 / 2 = a bunch of equations... This doesn't compute. Real animals in the anime? Like a pigeon? Not a pidgey? A dog? Cats?

[Mewtwo Ex]

So you noticed too. There are normal animals but really rare, and on the other hand Pokemon are quite common.

[FLOOTENKERP]

Wow. I did not know there were normal animals in Pokémon. What the hell...

LoL... I questioned that too along with the Cerulean Gym's aquarium xD

They could just be 3 Pokémon that haven't been introduced.
Maybe, their original forms weren't given names, and afterward, when they've gained their new forms, they were given their new names. Suicune, Entei, Raikou.

[FLOOTENKERP]

Normal fish... I gotta go sink this in... I always thought they ate Magikarp, like when James tried to and than it evolved and it tried to kill him...

[RockmanEXE]

They could possibly be different Pokemon that haven't been revealed yet.

Let's hope their back story is revealed in HG & SS.

Pokedex data for Ekans: Pidgey and Spearow are its favorite foods.
Pidgeot: hunts for Magikarp.
Farfetch'd: hunted by people for its leek...

Yeah... a lot of Pokemon do get eaten...
