I really think this question was about more than type match-ups, but a match where two types "seem" on equal ground, but really aren't. | I really think this question was about more than type match-ups, but a match where two types "seem" on equal ground, but really aren't. | ||
Kirlia has rather unremarkable stats, with low HP, Spd, both Atk and Sp.Atk, and both Def and Sp.Def. Arcanine, on the other hand, has notably higher stats in each. While neither has type advantage over the other, Arcanine is clearly correct in that it could deal more damage, resist more damage, and take more damage until being knocked out, as well as attacking first with higher speed. Also to note, Kirlia learns no offensive moves with type advantage over Arcanine (only Rain Dance, a status move); Arcanine learns Bite, a dark move Kirlia is weak to.<br> | Kirlia has rather unremarkable stats, with low HP, Spd, both Atk and Sp.Atk, and both Def and Sp.Def.

If you take the strongest move(s) Kirlia can learn (90 power Psychic and 100 power Dream Eater and Future Sight, STAB 135 and 150), with the strongest Kirlia's stats can be at lvl 50, vs the weakest an Arcanine can be at lvl 50 (95 Flamethrower, 120 Fire Blast, 140 Overheat, 145/180/210 each), Arcanine still does more damage in % than Kirlia can. Regardless of who attacks first, Arcanine has a VERY clear advantage. Proof in math can be provided. (And proof = fact, not opinion)<br> | |||
