In [[Adventure Mode: World of Light]], Raikou, Entei, and Suicune are presumably three of the countless spirits captured by [[Galeem]] during his takeover of the universe. After Galeem's defeat, [[Dharkon]] takes control of Galeem's spirits, including Raikou, Entei, and Suicune.

Raikou, Entei, & Suicune's spirit is located in the southwestern area of [[The Dark Realm]].


Raikou uses a {{SSBU|Pikachu}} puppet fighter and is fought on the [[Suzaku Castle]] stage. He is fought along the {{SSBU|Incineroar}} and {{SSBU|Greninja}} puppet fighters representing Entei and Suicune respectively. During the battle, the floor is made of lava, referencing how Raikou, Entei, and Suicune were initially three unknown Pokémon who perished at the fire of the Brass Tower.
