yogi

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'fictional bear's' is the definition.
'yogi' can be an answer for 'bear's' (Cartoon character). I'm not sure about the 'fictional' bit.

I can't explain the remainder of the clue.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for yogi that I've seen before include "Hindu mystic" , "Someone practising certain Hindu disciplines" , "Hindu spiritual ascetic" , "Cartoon bear (who has mastered Hindu philosophy?)" , "Hindu expert in spiritual discipline" .)
