Strategy Overview
Arcanine is one of those Pokemon that had a lot of potential but sadly wasn't able to take full advantage of it. Despite its nice spread of stats, its lack of a real usable movepool and the disadvantages of being a pure Fire-type leave it in the shadow of UU. Arcanine is a hit and run sort of Pokemon, and unlike most Fire-types, it can actually afford to take a hit.
