Let's Learn Pokémon with Professor Oak!

"Today, we will be looking at Pokémon #0059 in the Pokédex, Arcanine!"

"Since before our recorded history, Arcanine has been man's best friend. In Prehistory, when human knowledge about evolution and evolutionary stones were limited, it was rare to see an Arcanine. This, in combination with its luscious appearance, extreme speed and strength, and tendency to help humans when they were in need, lead the people of old to believe that Arcanine was some sort of deity. This led to Arcanine mistakenly being classified as a Legendary Pokémon for many generations."

"From what we've gathered from cave paintings, we can deduce that it was Arcanine itself that sought the first contact with humans, helping tribes when an accident happened, protecting them from predators, and even helping the first farmers on the fields. Since it was viewed as some rare being, the people would in exchange offer Arcanine their cultivated food, which Arcanine then carried back to its young in their nest by stashing it in their fur. Over time, Arcanine and the humans bonded so much, that Arcanine trusted them with its young, resulting in the human and Pokémon bond we still see today."

"Though it has a tough appearance and is very powerful, Arcanine is one of the most docile and gentle Pokémon to be domesticated. It is loyal, calm and quite jolly. Children love to sleep in its warm fur, and Arcanine loves getting their attention, wether through play or petting. The eternal flame residing in its body is said to be ar enough to even sustain nature in cold, extreme winters, making it a beloved pet for farmers aside from being a good guard Pokémon."

"Its legendary status was only revoked when scientists discovered that it was indeed the evolution of Growlithe, and Fire Stones became more widely available. Though no longer classified as such, it still falls in the Legendary Pokémon category within the Pokédex. This due to the fact that Arcanine appears the most in stories of old out of any given Pokémon native to the Kanto region, and is thus a Pokémon from many legends."

"Arcanine has excellent hearing and smell, and has been known to rescue humans that were lost at night, in the forest or even in caves. It rarely goes astray, too - as long as it has an item with the smell of its home on it hidden in its fur, it will always find the way back. One of my pupils wrote the following about their Arcanine:"

"Arcanine is not only a good helper to people, but to Pokémon alike. When I brushed its fur, bird Pokémon kept swooping to the ground to gather up the fallen fluffs to build their nest with. Arcanine watched them with glee, and even started to offer them branches by picking them up and holding them in the air. It is a smart Pokémon, albeit at times a little silly."

"That is all!"

February 08 - Celestial Blues - King Woman

Bandcamp / Youtube

King Woman seems cool. I heard them first in I Saw The TV Glow, so I figured I'd go with the album that had Psychic Wound on, and it's a good'n.

Screamy, riffy, grungey. Nice.

Pokemon: Shiny vs. Default, 0058-0059

Alright, today we’re tackling a favourite of many, Growlithe and Arcanine.

I’ll be honest, I’m not as wild about this line as others. Growlithe really suffered from the Stone Evolutions Don’t Get New Moves rule from Gen I-VII. No Flamethrower until Lv.50 in the first few generations? Fixing that in Gen V but making its more desirable physical moves like Flare Blitz and Outrage take until the mid 40s? Thank fuck for Gen VIII upending that and massively buffing Arcanine as a result, I finally got to use one without it dying in the late 30s when its stats fall off too much for it to last.

Meanwhile Vulpix gets everything it needs by the mid 30s.

Griping aside, here’s Growlithe itself.

I don’t dislike the yellow, but that mucus-green colour is back, and looking as awful as ever. Default wins.

Now, Hisuian Growlithe’s turn.

That’s better. The green tinge is gone from its muzzle, and the floof on the head and tail stay the same as the default. That said, I still find myself preferring the default, as the red-orange looks great. No shade, I wouldn’t say no to the shiny, but I overall say that default wins.

Next up, Arcanine.

Unfortunately, this is the same as the base form. The yellow’s decent, but the tinge of green in the floof just looks terrible. Default wins.

Finally, Hisuian Arcanine.

Once again, the Hisuian form is a massive improvement via removing the green from the equation. I also think the yellow works even better, thanks to the contrast with the dark grey mane and smoky bits. Overall I’m going to call this one a draw.

Default: 50 Shiny: 24 Draw: 11
