Flareon 100% - FS/FT or FS/OH

Luckily I hatched a second 100% Eevee and it evolved into Flareon, which I had hoped for.

Moveset is E/FT. That means a Fast TM is logical I think, but how about Flamethrower?

I like two bar moves for flexibility and speed in this case. The damage would be the same as FB, a bit less than OH.
Can anyone who uses this moveset share his experience?

On Arcanine you have a case but Flareon is much better in everyday use with OH. A %100 Flareon deserves OH.

Edit: Arcanine with dark moves may prove better, but today it's sub-par to tiny Flareon.

Just don't get Fire Blast and you are OK.

Flamethrower is less risky, but Overheat deals more DPS.

If TMs are adding up, use one. If not, ft is great. I have a maxed ft Flareon and a level 30 oh Flareon. Use them both.

If you need raw DPS, Overheat is better.
But Flamethrower has several advantages.
1: Multi bar, can be used with 50 energy, no over-charging energy bar
2: Short duration, can even fit in between Exeggutor's Confusions
3: If Flareon has 60 energy and is about to faint, you can still throw a flamethrower, but not an overheat.

I will TM it to FS, bring it to the same Lvl as my OH and compare. Thanks for the answers.

I have a F/O that I previously powered up for Blissey and a F/Ft that I recently powered up for Articuno. For regular gym fighting, F/O is great against Blissey with Z/Dg, but against most other defenders that I want a fire attacker for (especially after a little motivation loss) I prefer F/Ft for faster energy use, less wasted energy, and less overkill.
