Pluto is tidally locked to Charon. When the Pluto-Charon system first formed Pluto's rotation was probably faster, but was slowed by the effects of Charon's gravity.

Yes it is.

However, its largest moon, Charon, is so large that one can almost think of Pluto and Charon as being a double minor planet system as Charon does not orbit Pluto as much as Pluto and Charon both orbiting a common point near Pluto, because of the effect of both Pluto's gravity on Charon as well as Charon's gravitational pull on Pluto.
