What do the attacks on Arcanine G 15 cost, and what do they hit for?
The card prints 1 attack. The strongest asks for 3 Energy and returns 40 damage, which is 13 damage for every Energy card attached.
| Attack | Energy cost | Cards of Energy | Printed damage | Damage per Energy | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Overrun | 1 Fire + 2 Colorless | 3 | 40 | 13 | Does 20 damage to 1 of your opponent's Benched Pokémon. (Don't apply Weakness and Resistance for Benched Pokémon.) |
Retreating costs a further 2 Energy, discarded from this card, and that cost is paid on top of anything in the table.
The Energy this attack asks a deck to attach before it can be used, drawn as the symbols printed on the card.
One Energy card attaches per turn, so the number of symbols is also the number of turns the attack waits.

Each bar below is the whole archive cut by one printed figure, with the band this card falls into marked. A number on its own says nothing about whether it is high or low — the shape of the archive does.

Back to summaryWhat Arcanine G 15 does without attacking
Arcanine G 15 carries 1 printed effect that work outside the attack step, so it can matter on a turn the card never attacks.
Why this sits apart from the attacks
An attack costs Energy and ends your turn. What is printed above does neither — it is available while the card is in play, so it is a different kind of cost to a deck. Attack costs are in the section above.
Is Arcanine G 15 efficient for the Energy it asks for?
Printed damage on its own says nothing — a 40 damage attack that needs 3 Energy and one that needs two are different cards. Dividing one by the other puts every attack on the same scale.
Each bar is what cards asking that much Energy typically print, divided by the Energy they ask for. The number beside the bar is that figure.
Cards whose cheapest attack costs 3 typically return 34.7 damage per Energy card. This card returns 13.

| 5 Energy | 41.8 | 209 damage typical |
| Arcanine G 15 — this card | 13.0 | 40 damage for 3 Energy |
Further right is a costlier attack, further up is a harder-hitting one, so the cheap and heavy corner is top left. The size of a grey dot is how many cards sit at that Energy cost.

Where this sits once the archive is cut by damage instead
The bars above cut the archive by what an attack asks for. Cut the same archive by what an attack prints and the groups come out differently — the damage ranges on record are gathered on one page, which is where a figure like 40 is read as high or low rather than merely large.
Is Arcanine G 15 strong for a SP card?
SP cards are built large to begin with, so measuring this one against the whole archive mixes up what the mechanic gives it with what the card itself gives it. Measured inside its own group, the two come apart.
The group is every SP card in the archive — 105 of them. Each figure is compared with what that group typically prints, not with the archive as a whole.
What does being a Fire card do for Arcanine G 15?
Type decides two things at once — which cards take double damage from this one, and which cards deal double to it. Both are read from the weakness printed on each group, not from a rule of thumb.
17,249 cards carry an energy type. The note under each name is the weakness printed most often on that group.

What being a Fire card is worth
Groups that most often print a Fire weakness: Grass (2,387 cards) and Metal (925 cards). Against those, this card's printed damage counts double. Going the other way, Fire cards are themselves most exposed to Water.
What knocks out Arcanine G 15 in one hit, and what does it knock out?
Weakness doubles the damage a Water attack deals to this card, so the bar it has to clear is 45 printed damage rather than 90.

Arcanine G 1590 HPWhy this card was picked to stand opposite
Of the 1,108 cards in the archive that can remove Arcanine G 15 in a single attack, this one clears the bar by the smallest margin — 50 printed damage against a bar of 45. Anything printed higher removes it just as surely, so this is where the line actually sits, and this print is legal in Standard play today.

Arcanine G 15 in depth — what these figures add up to
Three readings of the same card, side by side: what it costs to get going, where it sits among the cards it will be compared with, and what takes it off the field.
What it asks a deck for
- Its hardest attack, Overrun, needs 3 Energy attached. Energy attaches once a turn, so that attack waits 3 turns from an empty card.
- That works out at 13 damage for every Energy card attached.
- Moving it out of the active spot costs 2 more Energy, discarded from the card itself.
Where its HP stands, cut four ways
What actually removes it
- A Water attack printed at 45 damage removes it in a single turn — that is the bar, not its 90 HP.
- 1,116 cards in the archive clear that bar.
- Going the other way, it removes 1,415 cards in one attack.
