Pokédex Entry

Volcano Pokémon

This brawny Pokémon courses around the earth, spouting flames hotter than a volcano's magma. Same deal as Raikou - Entei roams Johto after Burned Tower at Level 40. The Soundproof Wigglytuff trick works here too! Entei starts around ~Route 37 if you're trying to track it down. Entei hits with Sacred Fire, which has that nice burn chance. Its more physical than Raikou, so you're looking at Fire attacks + whatever coverage you want. Inner Focus means no flinching, which is nice. Honestly Entei is solid but not as immediately useful as Raikou since Fire types are a bit easier to come by. Still, Sacred Fire is Sacred Fire. Remember, every Legendary will have 3 perfect IVs when caught.
