Entei (Japanese: エンテイ Entei) is a Template:Type2 legendary Pokémon.

It is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon.

It is, along with Raikou and Suicune, one of the Legendary Beasts created by Ho-Oh after the burning of the Brass Tower.

Entei was a major character in the movie Spell of the Unown.

Biology

Physiology

Entei is a lion-like creature covered in brown fur with a long, thick mane covering its neck. It has gray plates surrounding the cape that makes it look as if smoke is coming out of a crater on its back. Entei has white paws and black bands on its legs, It has a red face with a white plate that resembles a handlebar mustache on its face, and a three-pointed yellow crest on its forehead.

It is said that an Entei is born whenever a volcano erupts. It is also said that whenever Entei vocalizes (specifically, barks or roars) a volcano erupts somewhere in the world.

Gender differences

Entei is a genderless species.

Special abilities

Entei can shoot flames that are hotter than volcanic magma. They also sport partial mental powers.

Habitat

Grassland Pokémon

As a member of the legendary beast trio, Entei are constantly on the move with no set place to hang around in. However, it is speculated that Entei (as well as the other legendary beasts) is not a unique species because Pokédex entries state that an Entei is born every time a volcano erupts and, in Pokémon Ranger, Solana or Lunick say "Wow! An Entei!" rather than saying "Wow! Entei!"

Entei in the anime

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 Unown.

A real Entei later appeared in the episode Entei at Your Own Risk.

In the manga

Pokémon Special

Entei was awakened by Yellow along with its two counterparts, and the three raced around Kanto and Johto looking for trainers to help them defeat the Mask of Ice to free Ho-Oh. Entei eventually pairs up with Blaine, and later Silver. In Pokémon Special, Entei's fire has a healing effect, burning away disease and evil auras. Blaine uses this fire to burn away the Mewtwo cells infecting his arm, and DJ Mary's Smeargle copies this power using Sketch.

Game data

NPC appearances

• 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.
