Arcanine is one of the everyone's favorite Pokemon due to its high CP. You may have encountered Arcanine many times in gym battles. Thefore, knoing the ways to beat Arcanine is importanto for winning gym battles.
Vaporen, evolving from Eevee, is well known as the best water-type Pokemon due to its higher CP and HP. When Vaporeron can use water-type moves which Arcanine is weak to while reducing damage of Arcanine's fire-type moves.
Best moveset
The combination of Water Gun and Hydro pump is an optimal moveset for Vaporeon to beat Arcanine based on DPS and EPS.
When Arcanine's fast move is Bite, Poliwrath may be the best, since Poliwrath can decrease damage of Bite ( dark-type moves is not very effective against fighting-type Pokemon ).
If players do not have water-type Pokemon, Golem can work well. Although it cannot cut damage of Arcanine's moves, its ground- and rock-type moves are super effective against Arcanine.
When Arcanine's charge move is Bulldoze, a ground-type move, Gyarados is the best to fight against it. Gyarados can reduce damage of Bulldoze (Bulldoze is not effective against flying-type Pokemon), its Hydro Pump is super effective against Arcanine.
Let us hear your ideas. We keep updating this page based on those posts! Thanks!
