Raikou (ライコウ Raikou)
"It is said to have fallen with lightning. It can fire thunderbolts from the rain clouds on its back."
He was the last legendary beast I discovered. Ironically, he became my favorite. For the longest time he was also my 3rd favorite Pokemon, but, NOT ANY MORE. I still like him a lot though, but he's just too expensive to be a main collection for me 'CAUSE I'M A POOR KID AND CAN'T AFFORD THAT JUNK.

Plush
Raikou Pokedoll(s)
Pokedolls are chibified plush which are usually made with big heads and huge eyes. The precursors to Pokedolls were Plushplush, and had plastic eyes. Unlike the current which are embroidered.
Do I have three? Yes. Yes, I do. c: Two are Japanese releases, and one is an American release.

Takara Tomy Raikou Plush
Released in 2009, these are pretty gorgeous plush~
Man, he was expeeeensive though. (For me at least hehe) but totally worth it. He's the biggest Raikou plush besides the giant Pokemon Center plush :)

Figures
Raikou Kid
Kid figures are little hollow "finger puppets" that started way back in 1996 or so, and have been going ever since! The clear variations were released with the original as a "special chance" prize!
He's hollow, but he doesn't really look like a kid. HOORAY FOR RE-RELEASES
