Strategy Using Arcanine
Overall, Arcanine has good stats but has a poor movepool. Since its attack is greater than its special attack, most people use it as a physical sweeper, and it learns more physical moves than Special moves too.
The added move Howl will prove useful to boost the attack strength. For Ability, Intimidate and Flash fire can both be useful here, Flash fire could be used to give Overheat a boost. Intimitate can be used to lower your opponent's pokemon attack strength, so pokemon that would probably try and attack with Arcanine's phsyical weaknesses such as Rock and ground types will have a tougher time in beating this pokemon.
Extremespeed has a high attack power and is 100% accuracy, this will prove useful against pokemon that might be faster than Arcanine. Although Overheat reduces Special attack after use, it is still useful, especially since this is your only attack that is based of Special attack. Overall, this pokemon is good pokemon although it has a poor movepool.
