I'm going with Ninetales. For the longest time Arcanine was one of my top favorite Pokemon, but over time its design has come to appeal to me less. I don't really know why that is, but at this point I prefer Ninetales by a longshot.

I'm not picking between both. >.>

I feel like they both appeal to me in vastly different ways. I love Arcanine and wouldn't hesitate to use it in a team slot over Ninetales (simply because Ninetales' movepool unfortunately isn't that versatile), but at the same time, I really think Ninetales has Arcanine beat in the design area.

.... I guess if I had to, it'd be Arcanine based on using it in battles more.

Ninetales is a cutie, so that one. Arcanine is cool too though.

Both forms of Ninetales are absolutely stunning, and i met a kindergardener who's favorite pokemon was ninetales and paraded around with a popplio plush.

Arcanine, if we are comparing it to just Kantonian Ninetails. Ninetails is nice and all, but nothing beats Arcanine’s combo of cool tiger-dog and fluffy puppy.

ninetales because of the utility it bring and the fact that it is so easy to evolve from vulpix. just get a fire stone . oh yeah, and the design is better
