Trivia

The Japanese print erroneously has ィ instead of イ in Arcanine's name. This error is also present in the Japanese version of Pokémon Trading Card Game and its sequel Pokémon Card GB2: Here Comes Team GR!

Origin

Flamethrower and Take Down are both moves in the Pokémon games that Arcanine can learn, the former via prior evolution. This card's English Pokédex entry comes from Pokémon Red and Blue, though it is slightly reworded. The Japanese entry comes from Pokémon Red and Green.
