Trainers are looking to evolve their Hisuian Growlithe into its evolved form, Arcanine.

What’s better than Hisuian Growlithe? Well, yes, a pair of them is better than one—for us and them, of course. The answer we were looking for was Hisuian Arcanine.

Hisuian Arcanine may not inspire the same devotion on sight, but this demi-legendary dog certainly packs a punch in battle. Bearing it’s new stony exterior, trainers will be hard-pressed to keep this good boy down for long—as long as they don’t take a trip too close to the ocean.

Additionally, this Pokemon takes on several roles in Pokemon Legends: Arceus, making it one of the most notable and dangerous creatures in the region.

How to Evolve Growlithe in Pokemon Legends: Arceus

Trainers can evolve Hisuian Growlithe into Hisuian Arcanine in the same way as its Kanton variant: by using a Fire Stone.

There is no level or friendship requirement needed to evolve Hisuian Growlithe, either. Trainers could theoretically evolve their Pokemon into Arcanine the instant they catch it. Of course, that decision is up to them. Just remember that trainers can’t devolve it back into its adorable, fluffy puppy form after evolution.

This similarity isn’t unusual for regional variants. Typically, aside from Eevee, a Pokémon’s regional form will keep several aspects of its originally released form. This includes its PokeDex number, evolutionary method, and, rarely, its base-type.

Those who are still looking to add Hisuian Growlithe to their team can find more information on its spawn locations in our companion article about the subject.
