Pluto STILL EXISTS, still is part of the solar system, and still is the same body it has always been. It just isn't called a planet anymore because the IAU refined the definition of a planet, and Pluto simply didn't make the cut. But, neither did Ceres in 1802, when Ceres had been thought to be a planet upon discovery in 1801.
nope but used to be a former planet, now is better known as small planet is between an asteroid and planet at the same time I don't have an idea of how to explain it.

YESSIREE!
YOU BETTER BELIEVE PLUTO IS A PLANET!
Pluto is one of the finest planets in the solar system.
Those bilious buzzards from the IAU know about as much about astronomy as they do about fornicating.
It's as much a a planet as Ceres, Makemake, and Haumea, and almost as much of a planet as Eris.
But no, seriously. It's a dwarf planet, since it doesn't gravitationally dominate and order its orbit.
It is now classified as a "dwarf planet:"
