Suicune (Suikun)
Suicune is a Pocket Monster from the Pokémon series that first appeared in the Generation II games (Gold, Silver and Crystal). Suicune is also the mascot for the Crystal version, as seen on the boxset, and has a slightly larger role in Crystal.

Because of its legendary status and genderless species, Suicune can't reproduce, so it's also not part of an egg group.
As one of the legendary beasts, Suicune races across the land. In Crystal this holds true, but eventually you can find Suicune in the Tin Tower.
