Growlithe (Japanese: ガーディ, Hepburn: Gaadi) (GROWL-ith[1]) is a Fire-type Pokémon introduced in Generation I.
It has a Fire/Rock-type Hisuian form introduced in Generation VIII.
Biology[]
Physiology[]
Kanto[]
Growlithe is a puppy like Pokémon. It has bright orange fur with black stripes. Its belly, tail, and fluff on top of its head are a cream color. There are no gender differences.
Hisui[]
Its Hisuian form has dark orange fur. The tuft on Hisuian Growlithe's head grows into curls long enough to cover its eyes. It has a small horn on top of its head. The igneous rock components in its fur are believed to be the result of volcanic activity in its habitat.
Behavior[]
Kanto[]
Growlithe are naturally loyal, obedient and protective to their Trainers, and will fearlessly confront any formidable opponents. Nonetheless, if one is improperly trained, it often bites without warning or unprovoked. They can also be territorial, easily attacking ones that they deem as invaders to their turfs.
Hisui[]
Hisuian Growlithe have lived apart from humans for a long time, thus they are unused to being around people. They are highly vigilant and tend to be seen watching over their territory in pairs. They are known to live near volcanoes.
Natural abilities[]
Growlithe have a keen sense of smell, allowing them to never forget what they have smelt. However as seen in The Case of the K-9 Caper, certain substances such as gases can affect their olfactory senses which can make them uncertain.
Evolution[]
Growlithe evolves into Arcanine by use of a Fire Stone.

Trivia[]
- Growlithe shares its species name with Lillipup, Rockruff, Yamper, and Fidough. They are all known as the Puppy Pokémon.
- Strangely, Growlithe does not learn Growl in the games.
- Its name in Pokémon Red and Blue's beta version was Flamie.
- A Build A Bear plush of Growlithe was released in March 2023.
Origin[]
Due to being a canine with a slightly lion-like appearance, Growlithe is likely based on the Shisa, a traditional Ryukyuan decoration from Okinawan mythology that resembles a cross between a lion and a dog. It may also be inspired by the xiezhi/kaichi, a fire-eating dog in East Asian mythology that has the appearance of a lion and/or tiger. It's stripes and overall coloration are based on tigers.
Hisuian Growlithe appears to be based on a komainu, which is also a cross between a lion and a dog. Its curly hair is reminiscent of the curled mains present on the statues. The statues are also commonly made of stone, hence the added Rock type and grayer color added to Growlithe's mane and tail. Growlithe's horn is reminiscent of the horns komainu sometimes have. The connection of the two may be a play on Growlithe's Japanese name, which is derived from the word "guardian".
Etymology[]
Growlithe's name is derived from the words "growl", because it will growl at its enemies, and "lithe", which refers to its readily bent posture before it attacks.
Growlithe's Japanese name, Gaadi, comes from "guard" or "guardian".
