A good number of cards I have, Yugi used in the Anime, as far as the Monsters go, anyway. Dark Magician, Dark Magician Girl and the like. My deck is made up of my favorites pretty much. I think its more fun to use my favorite cards... Weak or strong.
I'll be happy to duel you sometime. Whenever I feel up for it, I'll find ya.
@ I wouldn't really call a lot of Fire-types stronger than Arcanine. In the hands of any trainer, any Arcanine can be devastating. Its just hurt by its movepool selection, namely on the Physical side of things. At least it has a good base Attack of 110 to abuse Flare Blitz with.
I use a Physical attacker, and a Special Attacker. Special Attacking Arcanine is still good even giving up a little bit of power. It can combine Fire Blast + Dragon Pulse for near perfect type coverage.
But yeah, give me an Arcanine over any other Fire-type any day. No Charizards, no Blazikens, and no Infernapes.
There's only one Fire-type I may use over Arcanine depending on a situation, and that is Houndoom. Houndoom is a close second to Arcanine as far as favorites go.
