Growlithe (Japanese: ガーディ Gaadi) is a Fire-type Pokémon introduced in Generation I.

Biology

Physiology

This Pokémon resembles a puppy. It has bright orange fur with black stripes. It's belly, tail, and fluff on top of its head are a cream color. There are no gender differences. Much like Vulpix its shiny form is a yellow/golden color.

Special abilities

Growlithe can have the abilities Flash Fire and Intimidate. Flash Fire raises Growlithe's Attack if it is hit by a Fire-type move.
