Suicune (Japanese: スイクン Suicune) is a Water-type Legendary Pokémon introduced in Generation II.
It is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon.
Along with Raikou and Entei, it is one of the Legendary beasts called by Ho-Oh after the burning of the Brass Tower. Of the three Legendary beasts, Suicune is said to represent the rains that quenched the flames of the burning Brass Tower.
Suicune is the game mascot of Pokémon Crystal, appearing on the boxart.
Suicune is pursued in the anime, manga, Pokémon Crystal, and Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver by Eusine.
Biology
Suicune is a slim, quadrupedal, blue, mammalian Pokémon with white, diamond-shaped markings. Its face and underside are white as well. Suicune has a thick, purple mane that resembles the aurora borealis and two white, streamer-like tails that wave forward. It has a long, white snout. Suicune has a large, hexagonal, cerulean blue crest on its forehead with two prongs on either side of the base. It has red eyes, a small tuft of fur under its chin, and small paws with white paw pads.
Suicune has the power to walk across water and purify dirty water with one touch. It travels across grasslands in search of water to purify by following the north wind. Northern winds always seem to blow stronger in its presence. In Pokémon Crystal, Suicune is said to be the closest of the Legendary beasts to Ho-Oh. It is also said to have a link to the Unown. In the anime, Suicune is heroic, serious, and calm during dangerous situations. Suicune is believed to be both the embodiment of the north winds and compassion of pure spring waters.

Main series
Major appearances
Shiny Suicune in the anime
Suicune (recurring)
Suicune made its debut in Don't Touch That 'dile, where Ash and his friends first encountered one as they were heading towards New Bark Town. Suicune was seen standing on a small island in a lake, appearing as a mysterious silhouette of blue energy. At first, Ash did not understand what Pokémon it was and wanted to catch it. However, Suicune leaped into the fog and vanished as soon as Ash made an attempt to battle it.
The same Suicune reappeared in For Ho-Oh the Bells Toll!. After Team Rocket had removed the Crystal Bells from Ecruteak's Tin Tower, many Bug-type Pokémon invaded the city. They wrapped Jessie, James and Meowth in a String Shot and blocked off the entry to the Tin Tower. Suicune appeared in a mystical blue light and calmed the wild Pokémon down. Seeing the Legendary Pokémon, Jessie had Arbok launch a Poison Sting, but Suicune evaded the attack and sent Team Rocket blasting off with an Aurora Beam.
Eusine wanted to catch Suicune and sent out his Alakazam to battle it. Alakazam used Disable, but Suicune easily blocked it with a Mirror Coat. It then used Roar to send Alakazam back into its Poké Ball and fled from the area before Eusine could even react. The brief encounter led Eusine to pursue Suicune, in the hopes of seeing it again one day.
Its known moves are Aurora Beam, Mirror Coat, and Roar.

Spoiler warning: this article may contain major plot or ending details.
Suicune first appeared as a beam of light in Slugging It Out With Slugma. Its first proper appearance was in Querulous Qwilfish. It was revealed in Hello, Lickitung that Yellow had unintentionally freed the Legendary beasts from their imprisonment at the Burned Tower, from which they then left to roam Johto and Kanto in search for a Trainer to team up with in the battle against the Masked Man. Despite both Eusine and Crystal pursuing Suicune and attempting to catch it, Suicune eventually chose Misty as its Trainer after battling her at Tohjo Falls. After the Masked Man was defeated, Suicune returned to the wild.

Game data
NPC appearances
- Pokémon Crystal: It is possible to see Suicune multiple times on the overworld (specifically in Cianwood City, outside Mt. Mortar on Route 42, and on Route 36 just beside the gate to National Park) before the actual battle in Bell Tower. In these occasions, it will always hop away on being spotted.
- Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver: As in Crystal, Suicune will roam Johto and Kanto before finally battling the player. After being first seen in the Burned Tower, it runs to Cianwood City, Route 42, Vermilion Harbor, and Route 14 before becoming battleable at the end of Route 25 after defeating Misty. If it is not caught, Suicune can be found in the Burned Tower after entering the Hall of Fame again.

Trivia
- Suicune, along with Raikou and Entei, was designed by Muneo Saitō.[1]
- Suicune's number in the National Pokédex and the Johto Pokédex are the same: 245.
- Suicune is the only member of a Legendary trio to also be a game mascot while its fellow members are not.
- Suicune is the only Shadow Pokémon that can have a varying moveset. Normally knowing Surf if snagged in The Under or Realgam Tower, Suicune instead knows Hydro Pump if it is snagged in Deep Colosseum.
Origin
When asked if Suicune was based on any particular animal, Muneo Saitō described Suicune's made up process to come together easily and fell into a motif that felt "leopard-like".[2][3] This motif may have been a homage from Fūjin, the Shinto fake character of the North Wind, who wears leopard skin. Suicune's mane also looks similar to the northern aurora. Suicune's build, crest, and ability to walk on water bear similarities to the Qilin.
Name origin
Suicune may be a combination of 水 sui (water) and 君 kun (monarch). The game title it is the mascot of suggests that it may derive from 水晶 suishō (crystal).
