>>32616091>>when Incineroar has better bulk and a better defensive typing>Objectively wrong.Arcanine has 90/80/80 vs Incineroar's 95/90/90, and Dark gives 1 immunity and 2 resists, in exchange for 1 weakness and losing out on some resists.
>>when Incineroar is immune to Prankster>Prankster is useless, nobody gives a shit about Prankster.Yeah, because who gives a fuck about getting dicked by Sab, Whimsicott, or Klefki, right? Who cares about priority Twave, Hazards, Encore, etc.?
>>when Incineroar beats A-Wak, one of Arcanine's best counters, 1v1>Who gives a fuck.In doubles, the place Incineroar will do best, it beats one of the most used mons 1v1, whereas Arcanine doesn't.
The only thing keeping Intimidate Incineroar from being just a better Arcanine is that Arcanine has more speed, more SpA, and 5 gens of tutors/tms in its movepool.
