'''Entei''' (Japanese: '''エンテイ''' ''Entei'') is a {{type|Fire}} [[Legendary Pokémon]] introduced in [[Generation II]].
 
It is not known to [[Evolution|evolve]] into or from any other Pokémon.
 
Along with {{p|Raikou}} and {{p|Suicune}}, it is one of the [[Legendary beasts]] said to be resurrected by {{p|Ho-Oh}} after the burning of the [[Burned Tower|Brass Tower]]. Out of the three beasts, Entei is said to represent the flames that burned the Brass Tower.
 
It is said to be a relative of the [[Paradox Pokémon]] {{p|Gouging Fire}}<ref>[[Professor Sada|AI Sada]]{{sup/9|S}}/[[Professor Turo|AI Turo]]{{sup/9|V}}: ''"Through analysis of its genetic makeup, as well as its behavioral patterns...I came to realize that what I had discovered was in fact an ancient{{sup/9|S}}/futuristic{{sup/9|V}} form of {{p|Cyclizar}}, the Pokémon commonly ridden in this region."'' ({{g|Scarlet and Violet}})</ref> or a version of it<ref>[[Professor Sada]]{{sup/9|S}}/[[Professor Turo]]{{sup/9|V}}: ''"I am researching methods to catch Pokémon that live in different timelines, so I might transport them to the present day in my own timeline."'' ({{g|Scarlet and Violet}}: [[The Indigo Disk]])</ref> from a different timeline.
 
==Biology==
Entei is a massive, {{wp|lion|leonine}}, quadrupedal {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} with some {{wp|mastiff}} qualities. It is covered in brown fur and a long, light gray cloud of smoke running along its entire back. It has gray plates on either side of the cloud and a plate beneath the cream belly fur on its chest. Entei has gray paws with brown pads and black cuff-like bands on its legs. Both front paws house three small, white retractable claws, which can be seen in battle or in [[Pokémon Camp]]. Its main faceplate is red and shaped like fins or a six-sided star. A gray plate, resembling a horseshoe mustache, covers its muzzle. It also has a yellow crest with three sloped points on its forehead and red eyes.
 
It is said that an Entei is born whenever a new volcano appears, and that whenever Entei roars, a volcano erupts somewhere in the world. Entei races across {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Grassland Pokémon|grasslands}} at high speeds. It does this due to being unable to contain its extreme power. Entei is believed to represent the passion of magma, and is claimed to be the bringer of the summer's warmth. Entei can unleash massive bursts of fire capable of destroying anything it touches. Its fire is said to be hotter than the magma of a volcano. Entei loves [[Entei Treat]]s made by [[Snacksworth]], who once ran into and chased it in the past. {{p|Gouging Fire}} shares a resemblance to Entei. It is theorized to be an ancient Entei regenerated from a fossil.
 
As mentioned in the [[Sleep style|Sleep Style Dex]], Entei is known to sometimes leak flames from its mouth.<ref>[[Sleep style|Sleep Style Dex entry]]: "This Pokémon embodies the passion of magma. Flames apparently leak a little from Entei's mouth sometimes, even while it sleeps. After it has rested, it sweeps once more across the land, spewing waves of fire like an erupting volcano."</ref> It also leaks flames while it sleeps as well. After taking a good rest, Entei will sweep across the land, expelling waves of fire similar to an erupting volcano. Entei is known to enjoy eating Entei Biscuits. Entei can be lured over to a sleeping spot using the Entei Incense. Entei has three different sleep styles it sleeps in, they are called ''Energy-Storing Sleep'', ''Meditative Sleep'', and ''Volcano Sleep''.


'''Entei''' (Japanese: エンテイ ''Entei'') is a [[Legendary Pokémon|Legendary]] {{t|Fire}}-type Pokémon. First appearing in the [[Generation II]] games, it is one of the three [[Legendary Beasts]] created by {{p|Ho-oh}} when the [[Ecruteak Tower]] burned hundreds of years ago.
==Game data==
===NPC appearances===
{{spoilers}}
* {{vg|Pokémon Ranger}}: [[Gordor]] considers Entei to be the best and most loyal of the Legendary trio. The player captures it when it is first unleashed in the [[Jungle Relic]], but it is still taken by the [[Go-Rock Squad]], using their new [[Super Styler]]. Entei later acts as the final boss of the game.
* {{g|Super Mystery Dungeon}}: {{mdc|Legendary beasts|smd|Entei}} encounters the {{player}} and their {{mdc|Partner Pokémon||partner}} along with {{mdc|Archen|smd}} soon after {{p|Latios}} and {{p|Latias}} are turned to stone. He later battles them on [[Fire Island Volcano]], with the player and partner evolving mid-battle thanks to their [[Harmony Scarf|Harmony Scarves]]. Entei is later turned to stone and helps free the player and partner from the [[Voidlands]].

Entei comes with the [[Abilities|Ability]] Pressure, which causes the foe to use two PP instead of one each time it uses a move.

[[File:Lucius Entei.png|thumb|250px|Entei in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
[[File:Entei M13.png|thumb|250px|{{Shiny}} Entei in the anime]]
====Major appearances====
=====[[Entei (M03)]]=====
Entei debuted in ''[[M03|Spell of the Unown: Entei]]'', where an illusory Entei appeared to [[Molly Hale]] after she made a wish to the {{OBP|Unown|M03}}, and it subsequently served as her guardian.
 
====={{DL|Legendary beasts (M13)|Entei|Entei (M13)}}=====
A {{Shiny}} Entei appeared alongside the other members of its [[Legendary beasts|trio]] in ''[[M13|Zoroark: Master of Illusions]]''.
 
=====[[Six Heroes#Entei|Lucius's Entei]]=====
An Entei appeared in a fantasy in ''[[HZ025|Rivals in the Dark of Night!]]'', where it was revealed to be one of [[Lucius]]'s Pokémon.
 
=====Other=====
Entei made its main series debut in ''[[EP259|Entei at Your Own Risk]]'', where [[Nelson]] tried to catch it. He used his {{p|Misdreavus}}'s {{m|Mean Look}} to [[Escape prevention|stop Entei from escaping]]. However, Entei used {{m|Roar}} to scare Misdreavus back into its Poké Ball, allowing the Volcano Pokémon to escape.
 
In ''[[The Mastermind of Mirage Pokémon]]'', the [[Dr. Yung|Mirage Master]] created a Mirage Entei.
 
====Minor appearances====
An Entei appeared in a flashback in ''[[EP227|For Ho-Oh the Bells Toll!]]''.

Two Entei have appeared in the [[Pokémon anime|anime]]...sort of. The first appearance was in the movie [[Spell of the Unown]], in which an illusionary Entei appeared to [[Molly Hale]] after she made a wish on the {{p|Unown}}. He served as a replacement father for her while her real father, [[Spencer Hale|Spencer]], was trapped in the Unown world. Molly's connection of Entei to her father is driven home by their shared voice actors (''Naoto Takenaka'' in Japanese and ''Dan Green'' in English).
In ''[[M20|I Choose You!]]'', many Trainers attempted to catch an Entei, including {{OBP|Ash Ketchum|M20|Ash}}, [[Verity]], and [[Sorrel]], but it fled. It later took shelter in a cave with a group of Pokémon.

An Entei briefly appeared as a silhouette in [[GOTCHA!]].

Entei appears as a {{sbw|Spirit}} alongside {{p|Raikou}} and {{p|Suicune}}.
 
==Trivia==
* Entei, along with {{p|Raikou}} and {{p|Suicune}}, was designed by [[Muneo Saitō]].<ref>Yoshida, Yuuya (May 1, 2014). [https://kai-you.net/article/5034 伝説ポケモンのイラストを手がける斉藤むねお、キャラデザ講座開講！] Kai-You.</ref><ref>(January 3, 2012). Ken Sugimori ([https://twitter.com/SUPER_32X @SUPER_32X]) [https://twitter.com/SUPER_32X/status/154156622212640768 on Twitter]. ([https://archive.vn/WfQab archive])</ref>
* Entei shares its {{pkmn|category}} name with {{p|Quilava}} and Johtonian {{p|Typhlosion}}. They are all known as the Volcano Pokémon.
* Entei has the highest base [[HP]] stat of all {{type|Fire}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}.
* In {{3v2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}, playing Entei's cry in the Pokédex then switching to {{p|Suicune}} or {{p|Raikou}} before the cry ends {{DL|List of glitches (Generation II)|Legendary beast cry distortion|causes a distortion in the cries of Suicune or Raikou}}.
** The same is true when switching to {{p|Espeon}}, when the Pokédex is sorted alphabetically.
* An [[Pokémon Gold and Silver beta#Events|unused event]] present in the data of {{game|Gold and Silver|s}} (but removed from {{v2|Crystal}}) allows for the player to obtain a level 40 Entei.
* Entei's [[Effort values|effort value]] [[List of Pokémon by effort value yield|yield]] of 1 HP and 2 Attack is unique.
* Entei's numbers in the [[National Pokédex]] and the [[List of Pokémon by Johto Pokédex number|Johto Pokédex]] are identical: 0244 and 244, respectively.
 
===Origin===
When asked if Entei was based on a particular animal, [[Muneo Saitō]] described the creation process behind the Pokémon as "a hairy, rock-like body, volcanic smoke rising from behind its head, a king with a dignified beard... Entei's design was coming together... You could say it was basically like a lion... But I didn't want it to be simply an animal, so I settled on a silhouette that could look like a dog or a cat."<ref>(January 3, 2012). Muneo Saitō ([https://twitter.com/muneondo @muneondo]) [https://twitter.com/muneondo/status/154175027464507392 on Twitter]. ([https://archive.vn/fktq1 archive])</ref>
 
In particular, Entei has characteristics common with lions in traditional East Asian art. These include a human-like face, a crown resembling eyebrows or horns, and the back half of the flowing smoke resembling a fluffy tail. In many countries, the lion is regarded as a symbol of power and strength. Lions are also popularly known as symbols of fire. Entei's lion-like appearance and masses of fur make it appear similar to the Balinese lion spirit {{wp|Barong (mythology)|Barong}}, a guardian spirit who kills the wicked witch {{wp|Rangda}} in order to maintain the balance of good and evil. However, it also resembles large short-muzzled dogs, such as a mastiff. Its brown shaggy fur and white paws and muzzle are similar to a St. Bernard, a large dog known for its strength.
 
Entei visually resembles an erupting volcano. Its red faceplate and yellow crown resemble lava, its neck shape and brown coloration are reminiscent of the base of a volcano, and it has a cloud of flowing smoke. Its face also resembles a {{wp|kabuto}} and the backplates resemble mountains.
 
{{type|Fire}} Entei corresponds to the fire that burned [[Brass Tower]] according to its legend; at the same time {{p|Raikou}} represents the lightning that struck it, and {{p|Suicune}} represents the rain that put it out.
 
====Name origin====
Entei may be derived from 炎 ''en'' (flame) and 帝 ''tei'' (emperor), forming a reference to 炎帝 ''Yándì'' ({{wp|Yan Emperor|Flame Emperor}}, legendary ancient Chinese ruler in pre-dynastic times). It may also involve 炎天 ''enten'' (blazing heat).
