Arcanine
Species/Classification - Legendary Pokémon
PokéDex Entry - A legendary Pokémon in China. Many people are charmed by its grace and beauty while running.
Ever wonder why they always referred to Arcanine as a Legendary, despite not being a Legend?
Well, that's because, originally, Arcanine was suppose to be a Legendary. Part of the Legendary Trio, from Gen I, to be exact. When the concept of the Legendary Trio was first concocted, it was planned that Articuno, Zapdos and Arcanine would be the three Pokémon to represent ice, electric and fire, respectively. The people at Nintendo thought it looked odd and would confuse gamers having two birds and one dog as part of a trio, so they decided to replace Arcanine with another bird. Thus, Moltres became the final member to join and form the first Legendary Trio, whilst, Arcanine became one of the strongest non-legendary Pokémon from the first generation.
If you didn't know this before, well, now you know.^^
