Okay i often hear about raikou entei and suicune and that they are dogs. I respectfully disagree. First i beleive Nintendo calls them beasts and I beleive they are more feline than canine. Here is why.

Raikou: hmm where to begin. Okay raikou has three defining features that make me say cat. Ill explain one on entei since it supports him more than raikou. First his teeth. Those are sabertooth fangs and that was a cat. Dogs do not have teeth that big at all. The second is the design on raikou's legs. They look kinda like stripes and tigers have stripes not dogs. Hence I feel that raikou was based off a tiger.

Entei: Okay first off look at his head. He has a sort of mane which is a lion's look. Second is his build and his stance which both resemble a lions (raikous also resemble a tiger). Next his legs (this also is a point for raikou). They are bulky and designed to hurt not run (the same can be said for raikou and his legs). Dogs in particular run a lot and those are not running legs they are fighting legs or feline legs.

Suicune: Sigh i do not have a good debate for suicune since it has sort of a dogs build and is posed running on serebii. The most I can say is leopard, since its pose sort of resembles the way a leopard runs and in the anime it was shown to run like a cat not a dog. That and its face says cat not dog. The only other thing i can think of is that why two cats and one dog? Wouldn't three cats make more sense.

Well post whether you think they are dogs or cats.
