* Many refer to them as '''legendary cats''' or '''legendary dogs''', depending on if they personally see feline or canine features in the individual Pokémon. However, they are more likely based on many different creatures and mythological deities, such as {{wp|Raijū}}, the {{wp|Chinese guardian lions}}, and the {{wp|qilin}}. On top of that, they also seem to have been stylized to fit the classic idea of three '''jungle cats''' or '''jungle beasts'''-- the {{wp|tiger}}, {{wp|lion}}, and {{wp|cheetah}} (or {{wp|leopard}}).

In {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, each legendary beast was given their own remixed version of the original legendary beast music from [[Generation II]]. The three songs are similar, but use different instruments: Suicune's uses bells, Entei's uses an electric guitar, and Raikou's uses synthesized music.
