'''Gary's Arcanine''' (Japanese: '''シゲルのウインディ''' ''Shigeru's Windie'') is one of [[Gary Oak|Gary]]'s strongest Pokémon.  It is voiced by 三木眞一郎 ''[[Shin'ichirō Miki]]'' in both English and Japanese.


Its first appearance was in the [[Viridian City]] Gym, in the episode ''[[EP063|The Battle of the Badge]]'' where it lost to [[Giovanni]] and [[Mewtwo (anime)|Mewtwo]]. It also appeared in ''[[EP228|Extreme Pokémon!]]'', in that episode [[Ash Ketchum|Ash]] challenges Gary and Arcanine to a race.
'''Gary's Arcanine''' (Japanese: '''シゲルのウインディ''' ''Shigeru's Windie'') was a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} obtained by {{Gary}} during his {{pkmn|journey}} in the [[Kanto]] [[region]].


It lost against [[Ash's Snorlax]] in ''[[EP270|Can't Beat the Heat!]]'', in the longest battle shown so far.
==In the anime==
===History===
====[[Original series]]====
[[File:Gary Arcanine OS.png|thumb|left|220px|Arcanine in the [[original series]]]]
=====Kanto=====
Arcanine debuted in ''[[EP063|The Battle Of The Badge]]''. Gary sent it out to battle {{an|Giovanni}}'s {{p|Kingler}} at the [[Viridian City]] [[Viridian Gym|Gym]]. Despite having a type disadvantage, Arcanine came out on top and defeated the {{type|Water}} opponent. However, both his Arcanine and {{p|Nidoking}} were then easily defeated by {{OBP|Mewtwo|M01}}, leaving Gary confused as to both why he lost and what kind of Pokémon he had just battled.


==Move used==
This battle was seen again briefly from Mewtwo's perspective in ''[[M01|Mewtwo Strikes Back]]'' and its remake ''[[M22|Mewtwo Strikes Back—Evolution]]''.
*{{m|Take Down}}
 
*{{m|Fire Spin}}
[[File:EP228.png|thumb|220px|Arcanine in the Extreme Pokémon Race]]
*{{m|Fire Blast}}
 
*{{m|Flame Wheel}}
=====Johto=====
In ''[[EP228|Extreme Pokémon!]]'', Gary used Arcanine to compete in the [[Extreme Pokémon Race]]. {{Ash}} initially thought Gary was mistreating the Pokémon, but after learning that it wasn't hurt, he competed as well. Ash decided to compete with his {{AP|Bayleef}}, which proved to be a good choice. During the competition, {{TRT}} tried to catch Arcanine. They failed, however, thanks to Ash's intervention and after defeating the trio with the help of Gary, both decided to continue the competition where Ash ultimately defeated Gary with great effort in his first victory over his great rival.
 
In ''[[EP270|Can't Beat the Heat!]]'', Gary used Arcanine during the second half of his [[Silver Conference]] battle against Ash, where it was pitted against [[Ash's Snorlax]]. Although it dodged Snorlax's {{m|Body Slam}}, Arcanine's {{m|Take Down}} and {{m|Fire Spin}} had minimal effect on Snorlax, who then knocked it out with {{m|Hyper Beam}}.
 
After he decided to become a Pokémon Researcher, Gary left Arcanine, along with most of his other Pokémon, with his grandfather.
 
====''[[Pokémon Journeys: The Series]]''====
In ''[[JN102|Battling in the Freezing Raid!]]'', Gary was revealed to have recalled Arcanine to his team. He used it as his third Pokémon during his {{OBP|Raid Battle|GO}} against an {{p|Articuno}}, but despite landing some powerful hits, it was eventually defeated by a {{m|Sheer Cold}}.
 
===Personality and characteristics===
[[File:Gary and Arcanine.png|thumb|250px|Arcanine and Gary]]
[[File:Gary Arcanine M22.png|thumb|left|250px|Arcanine in ''[[M22|Pokémon: Mewtwo Strikes Back—Evolution]]'']]
Arcanine is one of the strongest Pokémon on Gary's team. In its first appearance, it was strong enough to beat an opponent with a type advantage in only three blows. Arcanine was fast enough to put Gary in a comfortable position in the Extreme Pokémon Race even with the many unforeseen events that occurred during the race's duration. Gary appears to have enough confidence in Arcanine that he even kissed his Poké Ball before sending it into battle. In addition, in the Japanese version of its debut episode, Gary refers to Arcanine as being "My honey" (ぼくのハニー), strongly suggesting that it was one of his favorite Pokémon.
 
Arcanine is shown to help its teammates in battle, as seen in ''[[JN102|Battling in the Freezing Raid!]]'', where it took a {{m|Sheer Cold}} attack meant for [[Horace]]'s {{p|Bayleef}} and saved it from getting knocked out so it would still be helpful in battle.

===The Electric Tale of Pikachu===
Arcanine appeared in ''[[ET19|Ash vs. Gary]]'', where Gary used it to try to capture a {{pkmn2|giant}} {{p|Slowpoke}}. He also used Arcanine to track down {{TRT}} when they stole the Slowpoke. Later, Arcanine battled against Slowpoke, but with little success, eventually being {{status|frozen}} by its {{m|Ice Beam}}.
 
Arcanine also appeared in ''[[ET20|Epilogue: Wild Type]]'', alongside to {{OBP|Ash's Pikachu|EToP}}.

==Trivia==
[[File:Gary Growlithe.png|thumb|220px|Growlithe and Gary]]
* Apart from {{game|Yellow}}, Gary's [[core series]] [[cross-canon counterpart|counterpart]], {{ga|Blue}}, uses Arcanine in all his core series teams where he does not use a {{p|Charizard}}.
* In the Japanese opening, [[The Rivals]], and its English equivalent, {{so|Pokémon World}}, Gary is shown with a {{p|Growlithe}}. Gary's counterpart in [[Pokémon Puzzle League]] also appears to use the same Pokémon, which evolves in the progress of the game, but it is unknown if it is the same case in the {{pkmn|anime}}.
* During its debut episode, Arcanine was seen using {{m|Fire Spin}}. However, Arcanine was [[Anime move errors|unable to learn Fire Spin]] at the time, only becoming able to learn it from [[Generation II]] onward.
* Before Gary’s first partner Pokémon was revealed, his Arcanine was commonly depicted as his signature Pokémon in other media such as [[Pokémon Puzzle League]] and [[Pokémon Master Trainer (1999)]].
