Shiny Movie Beasts' Natures Revealed

I apologize if this has been posted already, but I haven't seen a new thread or an updated post on the old one.

I was messing around on the Official Japanese Pokemon site:
http://www.pokemon-sp.jp/news-sp/20100515_02.html?SP-A-001=main

There are screen shots that reveal the natures for the shiny Raikou, Entei and Suicune you can get at the new movie. If they are fixed natures, they will be the following:

Raikou: RASH
Entei: ADAMANT
Suicune: RELAXED

Entei is good news and not unexpected. Raikou's nature puts you behind if you plan on using a calm mind set. Suicune's doesn't make any sense considering you can't make anyone flinch with Air Slash if you're slower than them!
 
Well, Adamant is fine for Entei. Rash makes Raikou a lot more balanced than before, as outspeeding most of the metagame and then hitting them with ghost-fighting-electric coverage would be scary. Suicune.... doesn't care much because 70 BP air slash wasnt doing much for it anyway and offensive CM is doing just fine already.
 
Just as I expected, the only one that got a 100% useful ability was the shittiest one... Good job GF
EDIT: Oh and Relaxed + Air Slash = epic fail
 
I think they were trying to make Extremespeed viable on Suicune and Raikou while still boosting the most important stats... and yeah, I think they were making a point of upgrading the beasts to be more equal, not so Suicune > Raikou >>> Entei like it is now. It's just annoying that these are event-only and the Pokemon themselves haven't really been upgraded...
 
Ugh, preset natures >_>

At least Raikou still outspeeds +Nature 100s, although getting the jump on Latias and Gengar would've been more desirable...

I thought this was supposed to be a WiFi event..
 
It probably will be in the States and Europe, Japan works a little differently.

I believe Arceus was originally a movie giveaway too.
 
I can live with Rash Kou and Adamant Entei. Scarf/Specs still works for Kou with that Nature. Entei needed Adamant or Jolly so thats all swell, Arcanine still outclasses it lol. Suicune didn't get that many good moves so "oh well". They didn't completely troll us this time.
 
Seeing as Suicune wasn't the one who needed to be upgraded, I'm still quite pleased with this. Maybe now I can use Entei in UU effectively! :P
 
No, leadCune is never going to work... (needed Modest really.) That was the only way extremespeed was ever going to be useful. Why are you even mentioning Air Slash - its useless.

Edit: Cantab:

Raikou: Zap Cannon, Aura Sphere, Weather Ball, Extremespeed (?)
Entei: Flare Blitz, Howl, Crush Claw, Extremespeed (?)
Suicune: Sheer Cold, Air Slash, Aqua Ring, Extremespeed (?)

Dumb question: What were the moves again? I can't seem to find the old thread.

Entei was Crush claw, Howl, and Flare bitz

Suicune was Aqua ring, Air slash, and sheer cold

Raikou was Zap cannon, Aura sphere, and Weather ball

they all have extreme speed
 
Adamant Entei is good news.

Probably we're all going to see Extremespeed/Flare Blitz/Stone Edge/Toxic or Iron Head on Entei.

Raikou at least got a + sp.atk nature, so it's not all lost.

Suicune... well, it's a Shiny one.
 
Actually Entei did, surprisingly. Entei will be Adamant, which will help it out a lot.

Aside from Stone Edge though, I don't see Entei moving up too much. Arcanine still has a reliable recovery move...

Wow they actually put an proper natured entei. Can't say much about the other two.

Agree.
 
Thats too bad about Raikou; Entei got the best of it for once. Suicune didn't really need the boost so I don't really care.

Too bad Entei's backsprite is fugly, otherwise I would actually consider it over Arcanine. Yes, I'm actually serious.
 
I prefer Arcanine anyway. Morning sun intimidate and flash fire put it just above stone edge and slightly higher attack for me.

I'm disappointed Raikou wasn't at least hasty but eh... what can you do. Gamefreak just loves to troll us (giving Flareon Lava Plume in Platinum...)
 
Darn, I really wanted a Modest/Timid 'kou. I thought Mild would work, but Rash decreases his somewhat decent Sp. Def. Guess my Raikou's gonna use a Mixed set.

Adamant Entei's fine with me, that's the only nature GF didn't f**k up.

Relaxed 'Cune...Trick Room anyone?

Considering they're shiny, doesn't that mean the natures would have to be fixed?

The issue isn't their shininess so much as it is the way they're distributed...kinda like that Heatran with Eruption from a Pokemon Ranger game, who was always Quiet.
