'''Growlithe''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ガーディ''' ''Gardie'') is a {{type|Fire}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation I]].

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s into {{p|Arcanine}} when exposed to a [[Fire Stone]].

==Biology==
Growlithe is a quadruped, canine Pokémon. It has orange fur with black stripes along its back and legs. The fur on its muzzle, chest, belly, and tail is beige, as well as an additional tuft of fur on top of its head. Growlithe's coat is noticeably longer on its chest and tail. It has gray eyes, a black nose, and large, round ears with beige interiors. Its forepaws have two visible claws, while its hind paws have three toes each. Each paw has a brown pad.

Growlithe is a friendly and loyal Pokémon that will fearlessly defend its {{pkmn|Trainer}} and territory from harm, even against larger, stronger enemies. In particular, it has been known to fight with {{p|Rockruff}} over territory. It will fiercely bark at, bite, and chase away any perceived threat. Otherwise, this obedient Pokémon will wait motionlessly until given an order. It has a long history with people, as its bones have been found in Stone Age ruins. In the wild, Growlithe can be commonly found in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Grassland Pokémon|grassy plains}}.

Growlithe also has a powerful olfactory sense. If it detects an unknown smell in its territory, it roars to flush out the intruder. It is able to smell the emotions of others, and never forgets a scent. However, strong, unpleasant smells can disable its sense of smell for short periods, as seen in [[EP054|the anime]].

==Trivia==
* The beta {{DL|Pokémon Red and Green beta|Pokémon names}} in {{2v2|Red|Blue}} listed Growlithe as ''Flamie''.
* Growlithe can be seen as a parallel to {{p|Vulpix}}. Both are {{cat|Generation I Pokémon}} that evolve once via a [[Fire Stone]]. Growlithe is exclusive to {{game3|Red and Green|Pokémon Red|s}}, {{pkmn|Blue Version (Japanese)|Blue (Japan)}}, {{game3|Gold and Silver|Gold|s}}, {{game3|FireRed and LeafGreen|FireRed|s}}, and {{game3|HeartGold and SoulSilver|HeartGold|s}} while Vulpix is to Green, Blue, Silver, LeafGreen, and SoulSilver. Growlithe has a 75% chance of being male while Vulpix has a 75% of being female, they are both in the {{egg3|Field}}, can have the Ability {{a|Flash Fire}}, and are yellow when {{Shiny}} from [[Generation III]] on. Furthermore, both are based primarily on canine-like creatures of Japanese folklore: Growlithe on the ''{{wp|shisa}}'', Vulpix on the ''{{wp|kitsune}}''.
* Growlithe shares its {{pkmn|category}} with {{p|Lillipup}}, {{p|Rockruff}}, and {{p|Yamper}}. They are all known as the Puppy Pokémon.
* Growlithe and its {{p|Arcanine|evolutionary relative}} are the only Pokémon with a [[List of Pokémon by gender ratio|male-female ratio of 3:1]] that aren't in the {{egg3|Human-Like}}.
* Despite having 'growl' in its name, Growlithe can't learn the move growl.

===Origin===
Growlithe is most likely based on Japanese dog statues called 獅子 ''{{wp|shisa}}''. They may also originate from Chinese 獅 ''{{wp|Chinese guardian lions|shī}}'' or Japanese 狛犬 ''{{wp|komainu}}'', which are guardian statues that resemble lions, with traits of tigers and dogs. They are incorrectly called "Foo dogs" in the West. Both ''shisa'' and ''shī'' statues alike are often found in pairs, believed to invite good luck, and used as guardians, which may have inspired Growlithe's protective nature.

====Name origin====
Growlithe may be a combination of ''growl'' and ''lithe''.

Gardie may refer to its abilities as a guard dog, as a corruption of ''guard'' or ''guardian''.

'''Growlithe''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ガーディ''' ''Gardie'') is a {{type|Fire}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation I]].

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s into {{p|Arcanine}} when exposed to a [[Fire Stone]].

==Biology==
Growlithe is a quadruped, canine Pokémon. It has orange fur with black stripes along its back and legs. The fur on its muzzle, chest, belly, and tail is beige, as well as an additional tuft of fur on top of its head. Growlithe's coat is noticeably longer on its chest and tail. It has gray eyes, a black nose, and large, round ears with beige interiors. Its forepaws have two visible claws, while its hind paws have three toes each. Each paw has a brown pad.

Growlithe is a friendly and loyal Pokémon that will fearlessly defend its {{pkmn|Trainer}} and territory from harm, even against larger, stronger enemies. In particular, it has been known to fight with {{p|Rockruff}} over territory. It will fiercely bark at, bite, and chase away any perceived threat. Otherwise, this obedient Pokémon will wait motionlessly until given an order. It has a long history with people, as its bones have been found in Stone Age ruins. In the wild, Growlithe can be commonly found in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Grassland Pokémon|grassy plains}}.

Growlithe also has a powerful olfactory sense. If it detects an unknown smell in its territory, it roars to flush out the intruder. It is able to smell the emotions of others, and never forgets a scent. However, strong, unpleasant smells can disable its sense of smell for short periods, as seen in [[EP054|the anime]].

==In the anime==
===In the main series===
[[File:Officer Jenny Growlithe.png|thumb|left|250px|Growlithe in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
====Major appearances====
=====[[Growlie]]=====
[[James]] had a pet Growlithe [[nickname]]d Growlie, which he owned as a child. However, he left it behind when he ran away from home. Despite this, it remains loyal to James.

=====[[Officer Jenny's Growlithe]]=====
Growlithe and {{p|Arcanine|its evolved form}} have been frequently used as police dogs by [[Officer Jenny]] prior to the {{series|Best Wishes}}. A Growlithe also appeared in ''[[M21|The Power of Us]]'', which is set in a timeline different from the main series; it was under the ownership of the Officer Jenny of [[Fula City]].

=====Other=====
A Growlithe appeared in ''[[EP033|The Flame Pokémon-athon!]]'', under the ownership of [[Lara Laramie]]. It battled {{Ash}} while defending a {{p|Tauros}} from a ranch that he mistakenly tried to {{pkmn2|caught|catch}}.

==Trivia==
* The beta {{DL|Pokémon Red and Green beta|Pokémon names}} in {{2v2|Red|Blue}} listed Growlithe as ''Flamie''.
* Growlithe can be seen as a parallel to {{p|Vulpix}}. Both are {{cat|Generation I Pokémon}} that evolve once via a [[Fire Stone]]. Growlithe is exclusive to {{game3|Red and Green|Pokémon Red|s}}, {{pkmn|Blue Version (Japanese)|Blue (Japan)}}, {{game3|Gold and Silver|Gold|s}}, {{game3|FireRed and LeafGreen|FireRed|s}}, and {{game3|HeartGold and SoulSilver|HeartGold|s}} while Vulpix is to Green, Blue, Silver, LeafGreen, and SoulSilver. Growlithe has a 75% chance of being male while Vulpix has a 75% of being female, they are both in the {{egg3|Field}}, can have the Ability {{a|Flash Fire}}, and are yellow when {{Shiny}} from [[Generation III]] on. Furthermore, both are based primarily on canine-like creatures of Japanese folklore: Growlithe on the ''{{wp|shisa}}'', Vulpix on the ''{{wp|kitsune}}''.
* Growlithe shares its {{pkmn|category}} with {{p|Lillipup}}, {{p|Rockruff}}, and {{p|Yamper}}. They are all known as the Puppy Pokémon.
* Growlithe and its {{p|Arcanine|evolutionary relative}} are the only Pokémon with a [[List of Pokémon by gender ratio|male-female ratio of 3:1]] that aren't in the {{egg3|Human-Like}}.
- Despite having 'growl' in its name, Growlithe can't learn the move growl.

===Origin===
Growlithe is most likely based on Japanese dog statues called 獅子 ''{{wp|shisa}}''. They may also originate from Chinese 獅 ''{{wp|Chinese guardian lions|shī}}'' or Japanese 狛犬 ''{{wp|komainu}}'', which are guardian statues that resemble lions, with traits of tigers and dogs. They are incorrectly called "Foo dogs" in the West. Both ''shisa'' and ''shī'' statues alike are often found in pairs, believed to invite good luck, and used as guardians, which may have inspired Growlithe's protective nature.

====Name origin====
Growlithe may be a combination of ''growl'' and ''lithe''.

Gardie may refer to its abilities as a guard dog, as a corruption of ''guard'' or ''guardian''.

'''Aurorus''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''アマルルガ''' ''Amaruruga'') is a dual-type {{2t|Rock|Ice}} [[Fossil]] {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation VI]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Amaura}} when [[level]]ed up at [[Time|night]] starting at level 39, after it is revived from a [[Sail Fossil]].

==Biology==
Aurorus is a quadruped, dinosaurian Pokémon that resembles a {{wp|sauropoda|sauropod}}. It is primarily blue with a lighter blue underside. It has bright blue eyes, a long neck, and a long, tapering tail with a teardrop-shaped tip. On its head is a V-shaped white marking with single, light blue crystal in the center. Two large, flowing sails extend from the top of its head and run down the length of its neck. The sails are pale whitish-yellow at the base and fade into a pale bluish-purple at the edges. However, its sails can change color depending on its mood as seen in [[ Pokémon-Amie]]. Running the length of its body on either side is a line of small ice crystals. There are three clawed toes on its hind legs, but one large nail and a single claw on its forelegs.

Aurorus is usually kindly in nature, but has the ability to create ice walls or encase enemies in ice. The crystals on its body produce freezing air as cold as -240 degrees Fahrenheit (-150 degrees Celsius).

==In the anime==
[[File:Aurorus anime.png|thumb|250px|left|Aurorus in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
===Major appearances===
Aurorus debuted in ''[[XY023|Coming Back into the Cold!]]'' alongside its pre-evolved form. Both Pokémon were brought back to life after being found frozen in ice. It reappeared in the newspaper in ''[[XY027|To Find a Fairy Flower!]]''.

===Minor appearances===
A fossil of an Aurorus appeared in ''[[SM001|Alola to New Adventure!]]'', where it was seen in the [[Pokémon School]].

==In the manga==
[[File:Grant Aurorus Adventures.png|thumb|left|150px|Aurorus in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
In ''[[PAXY17|Shooting Frogadier]]'', [[Grant]] was shown with an Aurorus. After several minor appearances, it was used in the attempt to stop the [[ultimate weapon]] from activating.

==Trivia==
* No other Pokémon has the same [[type]] [[List of Pokémon with unique type combinations|combination]] as Aurorus and {{p|Amaura|its pre-evolution}}.
* The Rock/Ice type combination has the highest cumulative score of any other type combo with a score of 26.00
* Aurorus has the highest base {{stat|HP}} of all Rock-type Pokémon.
* Aurorus and its {{p|Amaura|pre-evolution}} were designed by [[Hitoshi Ariga]].<ref>[http://hitoshiariga.deviantart.com/art/Pocket-Monsters-XY-413536751 Pocket Monsters XY by HitoshiAriga on deviantART]</ref>

===Origin===
Aurorus is based on a {{wp|sauropod}} dinosaur, and bears a strong resemblance to the ''{{wp|Amargasaurus}}'', which were speculated to have possible skin sail extensions on their vertebral spines. It also shares traits with various species of {{wp|Diplodocoidea}}. The color-changing sails are also based on {{wp|aurora}}s, most likely aurora borealis due to its partial Ice typing, and the fact it only evolves at night, when the aurora borealis is most often seen. Similar to Tyrantrum, considering its white, V-shaped mark with an ice crystal covering the top of its head and two flowing extended sails running down its neck, it may have also been based upon a {{wp|queen}}, with the mark and the two flowing sails acting as a tiara or a headdress worn by queens from medieval times while its body with small ice crystals resembles a dress.

====Name origin====
Aurorus may be a combination of ''aurora'' and ''Amargasaurus''.

Amaruruga is from ''Amargasaurus''.
