Kirlia vs Arcanine battle math

Kirlia Lv. 50
HP 98 - 145 (121.5)
Atk 36 - 95 (65.5)
Def 36 - 95 (65.5)
Sp.Atk 63 - 128 (95.5)
Sp.Def 54 - 117 (85.5)
Spd 49 - 112 (80.5)

Arcanine Lv. 50
HP 150 - 197 (173.5)
Atk 103 - 178 (140.5)
Def 76 - 145 (110.5)
Sp.Atk 94 - 167 (130.5)
Sp.Def 76 - 145 (110.5)
Spd 90 - 161 (125.5)

Both are fighting at Lvl 50 for an even match. Moves over lvl 50 are used, but they are all available by TM anyways, so moves related to level are beside the point.

Minimum Stats are 0 EVs, IVs of 0, and Hindering Nature if applicable.
Maximum Stats are 252 EVs, IVs of 31, and Helpful Nature if applicable.

Min/Max versions below assume impossible stats (all 6 are 0 or 252 EVs; all are IVs of 0 or 31)

Average is listed above, exact middle between stats. The games always round down, so just truncating the .5 on each.

Kirlia's strongest moves it can learn are Psychic with 90 power, Dream Eater with 100 power (requires sleep, hypnosis is 60%), and Future Sight with 100 power (delayed).

Arcanine's strongest moves it can learn are Flamethrower with 95 power, Fire Blast with 120 power (85%), and Overheat with 140 power (90%).
All five moves are special attacks.
Arcanine can also use Fire Fang with 65 power (95%), as a physical attack.
Fire Fang is noticeably weaker, but is included for strongest physical move.
Growlithe can learn Flame Burst, a stronger physical move, before lvl 50; it has 70 power (100%)
Damage formula is:

((((2 * Lvl) +10) / 250) * (Atk / Def) * STAB * Weakness * Items * OtherBuffs) * Random(0.85 - 100%)

Excluding the random, assuming each attack is 100% damage, results follow:

Kirlia wins in Strongest Kirlia vs Weakest Arcanine (1) (speed) (2:2)
Arcanine wins in Strongest Kirlia vs Average Arcanine (2) (3:2)
Arcanine wins in Strongest Kirlia vs Strongest Arcanine (3) (4:2)
Arcanine wins in Average Kirlia vs Weakest Arcanine (4) (speed) (2:2)
Arcanine wins in Average Kirlia vs Average Arcanine (5) (one-shot) (5:1)
Arcanine wins in Average Kirlia vs Strongest Arcanine (6) (guaranteed one-shot) (5:1)
Arcanine wins in Weakest Kirlia vs Weakest Arcanine (7) (guaranteed one-shot) (3:1)
Arcanine wins in Weakest Kirlia vs Average Arcanine (8) (guaranteed one-shot) (5:1)
Arcanine wins in Weakest Kirlia vs Strongest Arcanine (9) (guarnateed one-shot) (8:1)

Kirlia wins 1/9 fights.
Arcanine wins 8/9 fights.
Arcanine has the advantage.

The strongest Kirlia is on par with the weakest Arcanine.
If Arcanine is any bit stronger than impossibly low stats, Arcanine wins.
