Normally I would laugh away any attempt to explain where GameFreak got the basis for a monster without them explicitly stating it, but the simultaneous appearance of a lion (Entei), leopard (Raikou), and she-wolf (Suicune) in "Inferno" seems too conspicuous to ignore. Any thoughts on this? Extended analogies from Dante to prove/disprove?

: Doubtful, considering Entei and Raikou look nothing like a lion or leopard, and you can only make a weak comparison to Suicune as a wolf.[[User:Reign|Reign]] 09:31, 15 November 2009 (UTC) | : Doubtful, considering Entei and Raikou look nothing like a lion or leopard, and you can only make a weak comparison to Suicune as a wolf.[[User:Reign|Reign]] 09:31, 15 November 2009 (UTC) | ||
Actually, Suicune is based off of a snow leopard, leopard, or cheetah as it was inspired by Fuijin, the Japanese god of the wind who wore a leopard skin and was often associated with Raijin, Japanese god of thunder and lightening, who's companion, Raiju, a legendary creature embodied of lightening, who often took the form of a cat and had a roar the sound of crashing thunder, is who Raikou is based off of with similarities to the tiger and sabre-tooth cat. Leaving Entei as being based off of Chinese guardian lions. [[User:Roobaby9154|Roobaby9154]] 23:57, 14 August 2010 (UTC) | |||
