Raikou (ライコウ, Raikou) is a fictional creature in the Pokémon media franchise.
In Super Smash Bros. Melee
Raikou appears as a Poké Ball Pokémon and as a Trophy in Melee.
As a Poké Ball Pokémon
Raikou is treated as a "legendary" Poké Ball Pokémon; its chance of appearing is much rarer than most of the others, and in return its effect is more powerful. Raikou uses Spark as its attack. A current of electricity will form around Raikou. Any character (other than the summoner) that makes contact with the ground within the current of electricity will take 20% damage (up to 180% damage is possible, if all possible hits connect) and be thrown a short distance up into the air, similar to Venusaur's Earthquake, though more powerful and in a much larger area.
As a trophy
Raikou features as a collectible trophy, unlocked as one of the trophies that can be collected randomly in the Trophy Lottery, though it only appears once all characters have been unlocked. It reads as follows:
These Thunder Pokémon travel near and far, blasting out electrified whirlwinds. They carry storm clouds on their backs, so they can produce lightning regardless of the local weather; it's even said that they descended to the earth with via lightning bolts. Their extreme quickness lends itself to flight, so they're very hard to capture. (Pokémon Gold & Silver 10/00)
Trivia
- Raikou is the only Legendary Pokémon that debuted in Pokémon Gold Version and Pokémon Silver Version to not make an appearance as a Poké Ball Pokémon in Super Smash Bros. Brawl.
