Entei is one of the roaming legendary beasts of Johto, representing the flames that burned the Brass Tower. Because it’s roaming, it’s quite annoying to catch. Entei is also the only pure Fire type legendary. Entei’s design is alright, but I can’t get over how it has a flat face, and doesn’t have a nose.

It was featured in the 3rd Pokemon movie, but I didn’t really like that movie, nor Entei’s role in it. A shiny Entei was part of the 13th movie.

Stat-wise, it’s fast and has good Attack and HP, but low defenses. It has higher Attack than Sp Attack, though most of the moves it learns by level-up (esp Fire ones) are special. Though it does learn Calm Mind by level-up to boost its Sp Attack.
