Strategy & play

How Hisuian Arcanine plays — derived from its stats and the rules of the game, not an opinion.

  • Inflicts Burn — 20 damage between turns, then a coin flip to clear it. Chip damage with a coin-flip tail.
  • Its main attack (Scorching Horn) needs 3 Energy — a turn-3 swing on manual attachment — you’ll want Energy acceleration to power it up on time.
  • Needs Fighting Energy to attack — your line must supply that color.
  • Fighting type, weak to Grass ×2 — a Grass attacker doing ≥75 effectively one-shots it.
  • A single-prize attacker — prize-trade-positive against ex / V decks that give up two at a time.
  • A Stage 1 — one step up from Hisuian Growlithe; doesn’t help your opening hand, but quick to set up.

How to beat Hisuian Arcanine

  • Exploit its Grass weakness — ≥75 damage one-shots it.
  • Gust it before the evolution is set up.
  • On the receiving end of a condition? Retreat, switch, or evolve to wipe it — conditions only stick to the Active.
