Trivia

 * The collective term of Legendary Beasts continues to be the only CANON and sensible 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.


 * The common debate of the legendary beasts' origins is skewed in the belief they all either follow the role of being cats or dogs; however the legitimate origins of these beasts is truly a mixture of both creatures along with mystical beings as well. Entei is partially inspired by lions, but also shares a strong resemblance with the Fu Dogs of Chinese lore or even the Shisa of Okinawa legend (Both of which are lion-dog creatures of Asian folklore). He also appears to have a mane and a short muzzle that are resembling of lions or flat-faced dogs. Entei also exhibits many lion like poses in his movie and has been known to roar as such. http://i49.tinypic.com/28bxngn.jpg


 * It is believed that Entei, before it perished in the Burnt Tower, was a Flareon. This is supported by the fact that the Burnt Tower is in Ecruteak City, a city where Eevee and it's evolution forms are very popular. Also, it's behavior is nearly identical to a Flareon, as it is commonly portrayed as an intimidating and near-aggressive Pokemon.


 * According to the Pokédex, Entei is a male.


 * Entei's design is extremely similar to that of a beast from Norse mythology and is often referred to by fans as the dog of Odin.
 * In Pokemon Colosseum, there is a Shadow Entei
