Height: 1.9 m (6′03″)
Weight: 178.0 kg (392.4 lbs.)
Interesting Facts: It is, along with Entei and Suicune, one of the legendary beasts created by Ho-Oh after the burning of the Brass Tower. Of the three legendary beasts, Raikou is said to represent the lightning strike which ignited the burning Brass Tower. It is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon.

THE PAPER MODEL

Pages: 7
Pieces: 76

NOTES: Build from head to back, closing at the bottom of the feet. Be sure to add the 'thunderclouds' before advancing too far, as you'll need internal pressure for them to set right. When making the tail, you have the option to build it either 2D or 3D. Both ends just glue onto the main piece.

@Leaf: Glue gun? Glue stick?!
No, we use plain white glue... Elmer's or Aleene's.

I love this model so much! I just finished mine last night. He looks even cooler than I thought he would! And he was surprisingly easy, other than getting the clouds attached. lol I had to use a haidryer to help with that. XD
