Flavor Info

Pokédex Entries

The roar of an Arcanine that has undergone Mega Evolution is said to be so mighty that it literally shakes the soul. Rulers in ancient times used statues of this Pokémon to ward off evil and intimidate everyone else.

A cleansing, purifying flame is said to burn within the orb it carries. When this Pokémon roars, the flame surges out and anything it deems unworthy is burned to ash.
