    Well I ran into a bit of a problem with my heartgold team... I can't decide between Umbreon/Espeon or Growlithe/Arcanine...

    I guess it would help you to know my team;

    It currently is:

    Alakazam
    Croconaw
    Larvitar (Special Moveset Bred)
    Zubat (Going for Crobat)
    Flaafy (Missed getting an Electric type in Soulsilver)


    As you can see I need to fill in that last spot, but I can't decide between Growlithe or one of the Eevee Friendship Evos

    If I should go with the friendship evos which one or if I go with the growlithe should I evolve to get extreme speed or should I wait until it learns Flare Blitz.

    Thanks for readin this, and please reply to help me.
     
    If I were you, I'd go for extreme speed Growlithe. Just cause it's awesome, and I don't get to use him that often. =)
     
    id say Growlithe because u do not have a fire type yet and depending on the nature (if it is adamant or something with an attack based nature) wait for flare blitz
     
    I suggest that you get an Arcanine, since there is already a Psychic-type Pokemon in your slot. You can also evolve that Larvitar into a Tyranitar, thus making it part Dark-type.
     
    Okay so it is Growlithe... One more problem though, should I get extreme speed Arcanine at level 39 or should I wait until level 48 to get Flare Blitz.

    That would depend on the other moves your Growlithe/Arcanine would have. If you plan on it having a Fire type attack like Flamethrower/Fire Blast then I don't see a need to have another one like Flare Blitz so I'd go for Extreme Speed
     
    Rule of thumb for in-game teams, you can use whatever you like because all Pokémon will work fine, even duplicate types. :) However, go with Arcanine, evolve it to learn Extreme Speed and substitute Flare Blitz for Flamethrower. You'll be better off that way.

    Anyway, again no questions on in-game teams, you can use whatever you like and still beat the game.
