[edit] Trivia
- The collective term of Legendary Beasts continues to be the only CANON and sensical term to describe the trio, as they all have different traits regarding cats, dogs, and other animals. The popular term of "dogs" or "cats" were initiated in unofficial Gold and Silver Guidebooks respectively, and the dubbing company 4kids also made this conclusion; however neither term is truly correct when really taking a look at the origins of the trio.
- Suicune is partially inspired by Fujin (the Japanese God of the Wind, complimenting Suicune's nickname as the "North Wind") who wore a leopard skin. So, Suicune's appearance is also partially based on that of a leopard. However, its also got some wolf-like traits as well, with a longer muzzle and lither body than its more feline brethren. The "horn" on its head and power to purify water also gives the impression it could have some Kirin influence. http://i49.tinypic.com/28bxngn.jpg
- It is believed that Suicune, before it perished in the Burnt Tower, was a Vaporeon. This is supported by the fact that the Burnt Tower is in Ekruteak City, a city where Eevee and it's evolution forms are very popular.
