raikou the pokemon has nothing to do with this person; the pokemon's name is derived from the word meaning lightning (雷光). Yorimitsu's nickname comes from another reading of the kanji in his name, which does not mean lightning (頼光). there's nothing to indicate that they share any common characteristics whatsoever.

He's introduced in the video game Nioh 2, but depicted as a yokai slaying female. The in-game biography still mirrors the real life Minamoto no Yorimitsu with no question this was who they based the character on, only as a female and yokai slayer. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.110.252.76 (talk) 09:07, 30 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
