Welcome to Smogon! Take a moment to read the Introduction to Smogon for a run-down on everything Smogon, and make sure you take some time to read the global rules.

Definitely.
you get the shiny dogs with their exclusive move when you preorder the next movie ticket in Japan.
I'm not talking about smogon voting though, I'm talking about GF design.
The difference between Palkia and Kingdra is not their typing but their base stats.
So while many Dragon dual types are potentially awesome, if the stats are suitably scaled, they don't have to be overwhelming.
The 600 BST ones are probably going to be quad weak though.
I also await the Grass/Dragon, the only unique option left, to fill that role.
On another note, Entei finally learns Flare Blitz but as a special move.
It's better than nothing but is a bit of a shame still.
OTOH, the moves for Suicune and Raikou are pretty bad so Entei can stick out its tongue for once.
PARDON ME!?
seeing as only 6 types have been paired with Dragon so far, I highly doubt Grass/Dragon is the only unique option left.
He means the only unique option that still is 4x weak to Ice.
The only option with a 4x weakness!
Yeah, and it got a Zap Cannon straight to the face.
This may surprise you, but now I think about it, I'm disappointed there's an event Entei with Flare Blitz. Because I think that means it will never become part of its usual movepool. At least not in Gen 5. If it were going to be a regular move next gen, why put it as an event now? And the event may well end up being a fixed nature that's a poor choice competitively.
Yay! I hope it never appears on Entei's movepool. But it should on Flareon's in the 5th gen.
Well, it's actually a Physical move. I get the feeling that Entei may just make it to UU with this new move.
He means its a special move because it gets it from an event. :P
Haven't most of the 4th gen events been nature free (as in you can SR for whatever nature?).
Yes, but due to the way the Wondercards are programmed, if you have one with variable Nature, the in-game algorithm will make it so the pokémon will never be shiny. Thus, the only way to distribute shiny pokémon is giving them out with set natures.
Which means this Entei will have either a neutral or a +Atk Nature. I'm rooting for Adamant/Naughty/Lonely.
If I were a GF event manager I'd be all like, "You know what? I think Entei is one Sassy cat, let's make them all Sassy!" :P
Well, I guess more like, 「あ、エンテイ、なんて生意気なやつだ。そうだろう？ このポケモンを見ると、深い、生意気さを感じて来る。よっし決めた、このイベントのエンテイらは皆、なまいきにしてやる！」but you know what I mean. それで、クールのスイクンは寂しがりで、ライコーは勇敢にしたらどうだ！？ (then cool entei should be lonely, and how about making Raikou Brave!?)
Just to screw over anyone actually paying attention to how to play the game. Well, I guess the event Milotics were Timid/Modest which aren't horrible natures . . .

I check it every day.
Flareon is DYING for it (Literally).
Too bad GF's dead-set on making Suicune seem more "ice-like" than "water-y" (Though it purifies some lake in the 4th movie... Suicune being the North Wind lends itself to being a very confused typed pokémon).
It doesn't need it, unless by "dying" you mean it will 2HKO itself from using it.
