Your thoughts and opinions on Hisuian Arcanine? Personally I adore its looks, Typing, moveset, and Rock Head. Goddamned thing is a beast.

I like it even more than regular Arcanine. Also enjoy the Noble for both the look, that sick ass intro, and the fight.

What's the deal with its fur? Are the poofy gray mane parts actual rock, like the skin of a Geodude?

Either rock or colored to look like rock, most likely the former because of Rock Head.

>>54738288
Why?

Too bad its stats and weaknesses suck ass
Seriously, 4x to Ground AND Water? Might as well start signing its death warrant

Looking them up, though the names are used interchangeably they're different creatures.

It looks awful because they chose the exact shade of thirty four year old woman pregnant with an autistic flipper baby hospital bathroom shit for the rock parts. Why not a nice sandy ecru for better contrast with the dark red and black stripes

H-Growlithe was on the right track, but Arcanine looks way too similar to the original.

I'm not a fan but don't hate it.
I vastly prefer the original.

>>54738494
Hisuian Arcanine is one of the best VGC Pokemon in this generation and one of the most used in latest tournaments.
Stop looking at Pokemon stats on bulbapedia and coming up with conclusions without ever using or facing them.

The horn is made of stone but I imagine the rest is just coarse, sandpapery fur.

150BP STAB with only accuracy as a drawback, and 120BP no-drawback STAB to hit most things that resist the stronger STAB

It has like base 90 speed with head smash and Flare Blitz. Its weaknesses don't really matter for what it wants to do. You just slap a scarf on it and get your kill

I love it, the fact that it was leaked next to my birthday made it special.

>>54738288
Arcanine is never a mistake. The mistake is TPC not treating it like they did with Alolan Ninetales.
