Tell me, did you permit yourself to use them during the main story in Gold/Silver/Crystal/Remakes? Is it not arguable canon that Gold encountered and caught Raikou at the least?

Actually that they do not have a paradox form is a good news for not ruin any them!

I know I used Raikou before. I genuinely don't use legends but I like that tiger too much.

Why would Raikou be canon? I'd argue that Suicune is the canon encounter with Crystal being the definitive version of the games.

When I was in elementary school, I caught Raikou with a Great Ball early enough to use it to fight Morty. I was leveling my mons for the gym when I got the encounter and I knew it would run because I saw Entei flee from my friend, so I threw a ball and prayed. It was my instant favorite and the Crystal sprite just tightened the bond.

I didn't read the remake part. Yes, of course I used my boy.

Because you only encounter Suicine in Kanto. Raikou and Entei are immediate roams, so you can hunt or run into them and catch early.

I used Entei in SoulSilver. It was terrible and I ended up cutting it from my team since it failed it do good damage with the only Special Fire-type attacks it has.

I honestly never bothered to catch them. I don't like their designs and they were a pain in the ass to actually catch, so I just didn't.

Uh, no? What game did you play, exactly? Suicune has three scripted encounters - one in Cianwood, one on Route 42, and one on Route 36 - all of which are immediately viewable the second you wake the Trio up in the Burned Tower. Then there's the fact that Suicune is the only scripted fight of the three - you can go through the entire game without encountering Entei or Raikou, but you're guaranteed to fight - and therefore, catch - Suicune.

I guess he got Crystal confused with HGSS. In HGSS there are 3 more Suicune encounters that continue into Kanto after the ones you mentioned - Vermillion City, Route 14 and Route 24. You only get the chance to catch it in the final encounter.

Why would that make Raikou canon and not Entei?

Well, that explains it - he played a noncanon game. None of the remakes are canon, but Crystal is the definitive version of the Generation II games, and thus should be considered the canon version of events.

Crystal isn't canon either, Meg. It's Masuda's ROM hack.

It's more canon than any of the remakes, Sue. Unless you WANT the shit that is BDSP to be canon?

My original Crystal team was Raikou and 2 HM slaves, Typhlosion and the red Gyarados.

Had to use Raikou in Crystal because Ampharos isn't available, I already had a water type so no Lanturn, and Magneton/Electrode suck

I replay gold so many times that I plan on using every available pokemon at least once, so yes. I do permit using them but only if I find a creative enough challenge.

First of all, there are no "canon" encounters for the playable characters
Second, what does canon have to do with the way I play?
Also yes I use whatever pokémon I like that I can find, that includes these legendaries (if I happen to catch them)

I used Suicune. I'm glad you don't get them at the end of the game. Any pokemon I get at the end of the game is useless to me since there's nothing left to do with it.

I caught mine in Johto.
