Arcanine for attacking, Ninetales for looks.

Yeah, Ninetales is probably the prettiest Pokémon in Gen 1 and one of the coolest legends in Pokémon lore as well :)

Interesting that Ninetales is mentioned, I have one with 98% IV and the best ms for defense, but for attacking my favorite is Charizard, then Flareon (stronger than Charizard), still dont have an Arcanine with fire ms, they always get bite or bulldoze.. or both :D

Yeah I love using my Charizard!
He has a mixed-type moveset, Wing Attack and Flamethrower, but since I'm pretty much always using him against Exeggutor he still does SE damage.

And don't sell Bite short : against the right opponent, Bite is badass :)

It took me weeks of buddy-walking to finally acquire Arcanine, and weeks more to acquire Charizard.
I felt at the time that Flareon and Ninetales were the mons I was "making-do" with until I got better ones.
Now that I've been using Arcanine and Charizard as my exclusive fire-types for a while, I should bring out the others again, see how I feel about them now that I actually know what I'm comparing them to.

Tnx everybody for your thoughts and input. I have a 87IV Charizard with Ember Fireblast and a 86IV Arcanine with Firefang Fireblast. Setting aside the possibilities with the starter event (156 Charmander candy right now),which one should I power up?

The Arcanine is the better offensive mon. I prefer bite over FF cuz it will charge your FB faster. Ember is a horrible quick move so I would definitely not power that Charizard up. What are the starting CP's? CP is a more important stat than IV for attacking mons and IV means more for Def mons.

You have several things to consider between those two, but don't overlook this :
Fire Blast is a time-consuming charge move, which means you will definitely get hit with something while delivering it. The tankier Pokémon --in this case, Arcanine -- might therefore be preferable.

Arcanine is the best ATK Fire pokemon in the game, not even close -- even after the slight nerf.

Charizard has been my fav fire type since the day I evolved it in Pokémon Red lol, but Arcanine for the purposes of this game. I overuse Arc with bite/FT versus Snorlax. I'm not a FB fan it takes way too long and you could sustain multiple hits from Exegg or Snorlax which could hurt. I use to throw my Charizard in gyms to show off lol piss off other players before this event. I actually really like Magmar too which sucks he's such garbage in this game lol.

I wish i could use any fire type. So sad how we have to stay stuck on Arcanine cause it's the strongest fire type mon.
