My friend hinks Arcanine is a legendary Pokemon but i tell him he is not now is Arcanine a legendary Pokemon?

Arcanine is not a legendary Pokemon because legendary Pokemon can't be breeded and arcanine can.


Arcanine is it legendary?

Yes and No.Arcanine was originally created as a legendary pokemon, but he was replaced by Moltres. This is why he is still categorized as 'Legendary' in the generation 1 pokedex. Because this was never fixed, Arcanine's species is 'Legendary'. This doesn't mean Arcanine is a legendary species but it's species is. Like Pikachu's species is mouse, Arcanine's species is Legendary.But Arcanine is one of the strongest non legendary pokemon. His base stats are 555, and there is only one pokemon with higher base stats who isn't a legendary pokemon.


Is growlithe a legendary Pokemon?

In the original Pokemon they paired Growlithe/Arcanine up with the legendary birds. But no, Growlithe is not a legendary Pokemon; it's just probably the rarest Pokemon in all of the games. And Arcanine is badass enough to be a legendary :) Hope that helped--Taylor


Is flygon a ledgendary Pokemon?

Nah, Pokemon that you can get more than one of in games without cheating or trading aren't legendary in my book. I have heard someone call the Dragonite family legendary and Arcanine is actually called "The Legendary" Pokemon, but I think that's more for the TV-series.


What is the legendary dog Pokemon?

Raikou, Entei, and Suicune are the legendary dogs. Some consider Arcanine a legendary dog, but he is not part of the trio. the reason for this is that in an early episode, Arcanine was in the middle of a slate surrounded by Moltres, Articuno, and Zapdos. After the episode, it was decided that Arcanine was NOT a legendary dog.
