'''Arcanine''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ウインディ''' ''Windie'') is a {{type|Fire}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation I]].


=Biology=
It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Growlithe}} when exposed to a [[Fire Stone]].
==Physiology==
Arcanine is a canine-like Pokémon that resemble the mythical Chinese Shisa (a cross between a lion and a dog). Its head is covered in a cream colored hair, except for the region around its eyes and ears, which is orange. Its body is covered with a combination of orange fur with black stripes, and the aforementioned cream colored hair. The cream colored hair is on its chest and well as the back of its front legs, along with a portion around its hind legs, and on it's tail. It's paws each have three claws as well as a round pink paw underneath of them.
===Gender differences===
None.


===Special abilities===
In [[Hisui]], Arcanine has a dual-type {{2t|Fire|Rock}} [[regional form]]. It evolves from Hisuian {{p|Growlithe}} when exposed to a Fire Stone.
Arcanine can spit large trails of flame, as well as run with {{m2|ExtremeSpeed|extreme speed}}.


==Behavior==
==Biology==
Wise and loyal, Arcanine are prized Pokémon.
Arcanine is a quadrupedal, {{wp|canidae|canine}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} with an orange pelt marked by jagged black stripes. It has diamond-shaped ears with beige insides, black eyes, a round, black nose, and two pointed teeth protruding from its upper jaw. Its head, muzzle, and chest are covered in shaggy, beige fur, except for two oval sections around each eye and ear. Long tufts of fur grow behind its elbows and around its ankles. Its underside is black, and it has a billowing, beige tail that is bent in the middle. Each paw has three toes and a round, pink pad.
==Habitat==
[[Image:Grassland.gif|left|frame|[[List of Pokémon by habitat#Grassland Pokémon|Grassland Pokémon]]]]
Arcanine live in active volcanoes, grassy plains, and scorched fields heated by geothermal energy.


==Diet==
Arcanine is a fiercely brave and loyal Pokémon. It is capable of running {{tt|6,200 miles|10,000 kilometers}} in 24 hours with a speed and grace reminiscent of flight. In [[Generation II]], {{m|Extreme Speed}} was its [[signature move]]. Arcanine has long been admired for its beauty and speed, and anyone who hears its bark will grovel before it. The source of its power is a flame blazing wildly inside its body. Being the result of an evolution via [[Evolution stone]], Arcanine is rarely found in the wild, but when found, it is usually seen living in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Grassland Pokémon|prairies}}, and [[Pokémon Snap]] has also shown it living in active volcanoes. In the ''[[Pokémon the Series]]'' episode ''[[AG139|On Cloud Arcanine]]'', it was shown that it stashes food in its mane and carries it to its nest for its young. As shown in [[Pokémon Sleep]], Arcanine is known to sleep at supremely comfortable sleeping spot.<ref>[[Sleep style|Sleep Style Dex]]</ref> Arcanine when it sleeps is said to be similar to how an innocent child sleeps.
''Main article: [[Pokémon food]]''


=In the anime=
In some locations, such as [[Pokémon world in relation to the real world#Real-world locations mentioned|China]], Arcanine is seen as a [[Legendary Pokémon]], where it's revered for its speed and power; it is also categorized as Legendary in [[An Illustrated Book of POCKET MONSTERS]].
[[Image:GaryRidingArcanine.jpg|thumb|right|[[Gary]] and [[Gary's Arcanine|his Arcanine]]]]
[[Gary Oak]] has an [[Gary's Arcanine|Arcanine]]. The first time it was seen was in ''[[EP063|The Battle of the Badge]]''.


Arcanine and its pre-evolution, {{p|Growlithe}}, have often been seen being used as [[Officer Jenny's Growlithe|police dogs]].
===Forms===
Arcanine has a [[regional form]]: {{rf|Hisuian}} Arcanine.


[[Ash]] battled an Arcanine in ''[[EP076|Fire and Ice]]''. This Arcanine was under the ownership of [[Pete Pebbleman]] and was his final Pokémon. Despite the type disadvantage, Pete's Arcanine easily defeated [[Ash's Kingler]] by dodging its {{m|Bubble}} attack and using {{m|Dragon Rage}}. [[Ash's Pikachu|Pikachu]] managed to defeat the Arcanine with a {{m|Thunderbolt}} attack after the Ice Field melted due to Arcanine's {{m|Fire Blast}}.
In [[Hisui]], Arcanine has a different look due to the volcanic activity of the environment it lives in. Its body fur is red-orange while its muzzle, mane, tail, eyebrows, and tufts of fur behind its elbows and around its ankles are gray, and the insides of its ears are light gray. The gray fur is made out of igneous rock components. Its cheek mane, ankle fur, and tail form into curls. Its elbow fur resemble wings. It has a large horn in the center of its head and three small horns between its head and ears. Its mane form into curled clumps at the back of its neck and large rectangular clumps on the sides and bottom of its neck. The rectangular clumps have light red-orange markings on them.


In ''[[EP190|The Stolen Stones]]'', two trainers named [[Ramona]] and [[Keagan]] each had an Arcanine.
Hisuian Arcanine uses its fangs while engulfed in flames to snap at foes. Despite how deceivingly bulky Hisuian Arcanine is, it moves around nimbly like a dancer. This allows it to lead opponents in a merry chase while avoiding them at the same time. It lives in coastal mountainsides.
[[Image:Arcanine anime.jpg|left|thumb|The Arcanine from ''[[AG139|On Cloud Arcanine]]'']]
In ''[[AG139|On Cloud Arcanine]]'', [[Drew]] and [[May (anime)|May]] wanted to capture an Arcanine for a [[Pokémon Contest]]. When it was discovered that the Legendary Pokémon had a litter of Growlithe puppies to take of, the two rivals decided to leave Arcanine alone.


In ''[[AG153|Tactics Theatrics]]'', [[Dome Ace Tucker]] used Arcanine and {{p|Swampert}} to battle against [[Ash's Swellow]] and [[Ash's Corphish|Corphish]].
;Noble Pokémon
A special Hisuian Arcanine is worshiped by the Hisui people due to him being descended from one of the 10 ancient Pokémon who received a blessing from {{p|Arceus}}. He is one of the [[noble Pokémon]] who resides in [[Cobalt Coastlands]] watched by a [[Warden]].


=In the manga=
===Evolution===
In [[Pokémon Special]], [[Blaine]] is seen to have an Arcanine from a flashback in {{PSV|3}}, when he recalls a confrontation with [[Team Rocket]].
Arcanine evolves from {{p|Growlithe}}.


{{Special|Crystal}} has an Arcanine, whom she uses for transport at times. It is able to hit targets fast and hard using its {{m|ExtremeSpeed}}. As explained in a flashback in {{PSV|11}}, Arcanine was a [[wild Pokémon]] from [[Mt. Mortar]] whose left eye was injured five years ago. The cause is revealed to be a {{p|Larvitar}} prankster, whom Crystal manages to capture.
{{rf|Hisuian}} Arcanine evolves from Hisuian Growlithe.

==In the anime==
===Main series===
[[File:Gary Arcanine.png|thumb|250px|Arcanine in ''[[Pokémon the Series]]'']]
====Major appearances====
=====[[Gary's Arcanine]]=====
Arcanine debuted in ''[[EP063|The Battle Of The Badge]]'', under the ownership of {{Gary}}, who was first seen using it against {{an|Giovanni}} in a [[Gym]] {{pkmn|battle}}. It defeated Giovanni's {{p|Kingler}}, despite the type disadvantage, but was then completely overwhelmed by {{OBP|Mewtwo|M01}}. It has made multiple reappearances since then as one of Gary's most commonly used Pokémon.
 
=====Other=====
In ''[[EP076|Fire and Ice]]'', [[Pete Pebbleman]] used an Arcanine during his battle against {{Ash}} at the [[Indigo Plateau Conference]]. Despite the type disadvantage, Arcanine easily defeated {{AP|Kingler}} by dodging its {{m|Bubble}} attack and using {{m|Dragon Rage}}. {{AP|Pikachu}} then managed to defeat the Arcanine with {{m|Thunderbolt}} after its {{m|Fire Blast}} melted the Ice Field.
 
In ''[[EP190|The Stolen Stones]]'', [[Keegan]] owned an Arcanine, while [[Ramona]] owned two others. Keegan's Arcanine was [[nickname]]d Arcky. The {{type|Fire}} Pokémon were used to deliver some [[Fire Stone]]s that were meant to be used as prizes for a local Fire Pokémon tournament. Keegan and Ramona later used their Arcanine to save Ash, {{an|Misty}}, and {{an|Brock}} from falling off a cliff.
 
In ''[[AG139|On Cloud Arcanine]]'', [[Drew]] and {{an|May}} wanted to catch a female Arcanine for use in a [[Pokémon Contest]]. When it was discovered that she had a litter of {{p|Growlithe}} puppies to take care of, the two decided to leave Arcanine alone.
 
In ''[[AG153|Tactics Theatrics!!]]'', [[Tucker]] owns an Arcanine. Nicknamed the "Fiery Fleet-Footed" Arcanine, it was used along with a {{p|Swampert}} to battle Ash and his {{AP|Swellow}} and {{AP|Corphish}} at the [[Battle Dome]]. Both of Tucker's Pokémon were eventually defeated after a hard-fought battle.
 
In flashbacks in ''[[DP168|Keeping In Top Forme!]]'', [[Marley]] used an Arcanine when she was first attacked by {{TRT}}, in order to send them blasting off. Later, she used Arcanine to escape when she was confronted by them again.
 
An Arcanine appeared during a flashback in ''[[HZ003|For Sure! 'Cause Sprigatito's with Me!]]'', under the ownership of [[Liko]]'s grandmother [[Diana]]. It has since made further appearances in ''[[Pokémon Horizons: The Series]]''.
 
====Minor appearances====
An Arcanine appeared in the Japanese credits of ''[[PK04|Pikachu's Rescue Adventure]]''.
 
An Arcanine appeared in a fantasy in ''[[EP116|The Rivalry Revival]]''.
 
In ''[[EP169|Beauty and the Breeder]]'', an Arcanine participated in [[Pokémon Beauty Contest|a Pokémon breeding competition]].
 
An Arcanine appeared in {{TRT}}'s fantasy in ''[[EP174|Imitation Confrontation]]''.

* Arcanine and its pre-evolved form are the only Pokémon with a [[List of Pokémon by gender ratio|male-female ratio of 3:1]] that aren't in the {{egg3|Human-Like}}.

* Hisuian Arcanine and its pre-evolved form were designed by [[Megumi Mizutani]].<ref>[https://twitter.com/megtany/status/1500305951479324673 Tweet by 水谷恵 (@megtany).] Posted on March 6, 2022.</ref>
* In [[Pokémon Legends: Arceus]]'s internal code, Hisuian Arcanine's Hidden Ability is {{a|Justified}} instead of {{a|Rock Head}}.
===Origin===
Arcanine may be based on the {{wp|Ryukuan people|Ryukyuan}} シーサー ''{{wp|shisa}}'', or 狛犬 ''{{wp|komainu}}'', mythical creatures that resemble a mix between {{wp|lion}}s and {{wp|dog}}s. Given its earliest Pokédex entries state it's from China, however, it may more precisely derive from the 獅 ''{{wp|Chinese guardian lion}}''. Statues of ''komainu'' in pairs are used as guardians that invite good spirits and repel evil ones. Its stripes and coloration are reminiscent of {{wp|tiger}}s. It could also be based on the ''{{wp|xiezhi}}'', a mythical fire-eating dog with similarities to lions and tigers. It may also draw inspiration from dogs with brindle ("tiger-striped") coat patterns, such as the 甲斐犬 {{wp|Kai Ken}}.


=Trivia=
In its Hisuian Form, its {{t|Rock}} typing and appearance may be based on the ''komainu'' statues. Its ankle fur and tail resemble {{wp|Plume (fluid dynamics)|plume}}s of smoke.
*Arcanine originally had the name "Blaze". 
*Arcanine has the highest base stats of any Pokémon that only evolves once.
*Arcanine has the highest base stat average of any non-legendary and non-[[pseudo-legendary]] Pokémon.
*Because of its high stats, its [[species]], and the fact that it was illustrated in an ancient slab along with the [[Legendary Birds]] in the [[EP002|second episode]], it can be assumed that Arcanine was originally planned to be part of the legendary trio in first generation games, though later dropped for {{p|Moltres}}.


==Origin==
====Name origin====
Arcanine is based on Japanese [[wp:Shisa|シーサー ''shisa'']], or ''koma-inu''. They are mythical creatures that take inspiration from lions, tigers, and dogs. Statues of them in pairs are used as guardians and to invite good luck.
Arcanine may be a combination of ''arcane'' and ''{{wp|canine}}''.


===Name origin===
Windie may refer to ''wind'' or ''windy'', reflecting its defining nature of being fast like the wind, further emphasized by {{m|Extreme Speed}} being its [[signature move]] in [[Generation II]].
Arcanine's name is a combination of ''arcane'', meaning mysterious, and ''[[wp:canine|canine]]'', meaning dog. Windi may refer to wind, because this Pokémon runs like a wind as if it was flying and at great speed.

Arcanine (Japanese: ウインディ Windie) is a Fire-type Pokémon introduced in Generation I.

It evolves from Growlithe when exposed to a Fire Stone.

In Hisui, Arcanine has a dual-type Fire/Rock regional form. It evolves from Hisuian Growlithe when exposed to a Fire Stone.

Biology

Arcanine is a quadrupedal, canine Pokémon with an orange pelt marked by jagged black stripes. It has diamond-shaped ears with beige insides, black eyes, a round, black nose, and two pointed teeth protruding from its upper jaw. Its head, muzzle, and chest are covered in shaggy, beige fur, except for two oval sections around each eye and ear. Long tufts of fur grow behind its elbows and around its ankles. Its underside is black, and it has a billowing, beige tail that is bent in the middle. Each paw has three toes and a round, pink pad.

Arcanine is a fiercely brave and loyal Pokémon. It is capable of running 6,200 miles in 24 hours with a speed and grace reminiscent of flight. In Generation II, Extreme Speed was its signature move. Arcanine has long been admired for its beauty and speed, and anyone who hears its bark will grovel before it. The source of its power is a flame blazing wildly inside its body. Being the result of an evolution via Evolution stone, Arcanine is rarely found in the wild, but when found, it is usually seen living in prairies, and Pokémon Snap has also shown it living in active volcanoes. In the Pokémon the Series episode On Cloud Arcanine, it was shown that it stashes food in its mane and carries it to its nest for its young. As shown in Pokémon Sleep, Arcanine is known to sleep at supremely comfortable sleeping spot.[1] Arcanine when it sleeps is said to be similar to how an innocent child sleeps.

In some locations, such as China, Arcanine is seen as a Legendary Pokémon, where it's revered for its speed and power; it is also categorized as Legendary in An Illustrated Book of POCKET MONSTERS.

Forms

Arcanine has a regional form: Hisuian Arcanine.

In Hisui, Arcanine has a different look due to the volcanic activity of the environment it lives in. Its body fur is red-orange while its muzzle, mane, tail, eyebrows, and tufts of fur behind its elbows and around its ankles are gray, and the insides of its ears are light gray. The gray fur is made out of igneous rock components. Its cheek mane, ankle fur, and tail form into curls. Its elbow fur resemble wings. It has a large horn in the center of its head and three small horns between its head and ears. Its mane form into curled clumps at the back of its neck and large rectangular clumps on the sides and bottom of its neck. The rectangular clumps have light red-orange markings on them.

Hisuian Arcanine uses its fangs while engulfed in flames to snap at foes. Despite how deceivingly bulky Hisuian Arcanine is, it moves around nimbly like a dancer. This allows it to lead opponents in a merry chase while avoiding them at the same time. It lives in coastal mountainsides.

Noble Pokémon

A special Hisuian Arcanine is worshiped by the Hisui people due to him being descended from one of the 10 ancient Pokémon who received a blessing from Arceus. He is one of the noble Pokémon who resides in Cobalt Coastlands watched by a Warden.

Evolution

Arcanine evolves from Growlithe.

Trivia

Engravings of "Legendary Pokémon" Moltres, Articuno, Zapdos, and Arcanine in Pokémon Emergency!

Origin

Arcanine may be based on the Ryukyuan シーサー shisa, or 狛犬 komainu, mythical creatures that resemble a mix between lions and dogs. Given its earliest Pokédex entries state it's from China, however, it may more precisely derive from the 獅 Chinese guardian lion. Statues of komainu in pairs are used as guardians that invite good spirits and repel evil ones. Its stripes and coloration are reminiscent of tigers. It could also be based on the xiezhi, a mythical fire-eating dog with similarities to lions and tigers. It may also draw inspiration from dogs with brindle ("tiger-striped") coat patterns, such as the 甲斐犬 Kai Ken.

In its Hisuian Form, its Rock typing and appearance may be based on the komainu statues. Its ankle fur and tail resemble plumes of smoke.

Name origin

Arcanine may be a combination of arcane and canine.

Windie may refer to wind or windy, reflecting its defining nature of being fast like the wind, further emphasized by Extreme Speed being its signature move in Generation II.
