It seems there is no general consensus about the exact definition of "Jovian planets." Depending on the definition used, Neptune is, or is not, a "Jovian planet"; as explained on Wikipedia: "Giant planets are also sometimes called jovian planets, after Jupiter. They are also sometimes known as gas giants. However, many astronomers apply the latter term only to Jupiter and Saturn, classifying Uranus and Neptune, which have different compositions, as ice giants. ..."

Pluto is not considered a Jovian planet because it is much smaller and composed primarily of rock and ice, whereas Jovian planets are large gas giants composed mostly of hydrogen and helium. Additionally, Pluto's orbit is more elliptical and tilted compared to the Jovian planets, which follow more circular orbits in the outer solar system.
No rings have been observed around Pluto.So far rings have only been observed around Jovian Giant planets, like Saturn. Pluto is a dwarf planet, not a Jovian planet.
Pluto is not considered a planet because it has not cleared other objects out of its orbit. It has a composition much like that of a comet, consisting of various ices, and so is not a terrestrial planet.
Pluto is classified as a dwarf planet, not a terrestrial or jovian planet, because it does not meet the criteria to be considered a full planet. It orbits the sun in the Kuiper Belt, a region beyond Neptune, and its size and composition differ from the rocky terrestrial planets and the gas giants of the outer solar system. Additionally, Pluto has not cleared its orbit of other debris, which is one of the characteristics required for a planet status as per the International Astronomical Union's definition.

Neither. It is considered a dwarf planet. It is much larger than a comet.
It's not even a planet, but a dwarf planet. Jovian Planets are big and not solid.Pluto is a solid object with a relatively thin atmosphere.Pluto is small, smaller than any true planet in the solar system.Pluto is not a planet but a dwarf planet.

Yes, it is a Jovian planet.

Mercury is not a jovian planet because all planets after Jupiter and Jupiter are all jovian planets. So Jupiter, Saturn , Uranus , Neptune and the poor old Pluto that was booted from the planets are all jovian.
PLuto is not a planet anymore because they could not find enough information on it and can't really tell things about that you don't already know.
The closest Jovian planet, aka gas giant, is Jupiter. Jovian means relating to Jupiter.
Jupiter is a Jovian planet. The word "Jovian" comes from "Jove," which is another name for Jupiter.
