Raikou is a yellow tiger-like creature with black stripes that resemble lightning bolts and a white under-side. Raikou has a skinny, light-blue tail with a star-shaped formation at the end. Raikou appears to have a purple cape that is supposedly made of thunderclouds. Most of Raikou's face is white with a light-blue "X" on its face and a gray crest on its forehead. Raikou has red eyes and long fangs in its upper jaws that make its appearance similar to the sabre-tooth cat. == Raikou is a genderless species. == Raikou has the ability to shoot bolts of lightning from the rain clouds on its back. Raikou can also attack using its fangs and has limited mental powers. Raikou has also shown an ability to create storm clouds from its cape, allowing him to fly, however this has only been seen in the Pokemon Special manga, whilst attacking Falkner. Raikou is normally distrustful of humans due to the fact that humans have tried to capture the Legendary Beast of Thunder for many centuries, though it has shown some friendship with those that just wish to help it. Raikou tends to show up either when there is a thunderstorm or when other Electric-type Pokémon are in danger. As a member of the legendary beast trio, Raikou is constantly on the move and seems to lack any set place where they show up. However, it seems to appear more along the route between Olivine and Ecruteak, at one particular patch of grass northwest to where a berry-bearing tree can be found (Route 38), around a female trainer (Beauty Valerie or Lass Dana) : Main article: Pokémon food Raikou first appeared in Houndoom's Special Delivery. It was spotted by Togepi and a Houndoom before it disappeared. Raikou also appeared in the Pokémon Chronicles episode, The Legend of Thunder!. The Mauville City Gym Leader Wattson owns many Raikou robots which he uses in his Gym. Raikou made a small cameo at the opening of Arceus: To a Conquering Space-Time. Raikou also had a minor appearance in Dawn's Piplup's dream in DP137. === ===
