Growlithe (Hisui) in Polished Crystal

Fire / Rock — where to catch it, what it learns, and how it differs from the official games.

Compared with the official games

Against the base species it is built from:

Stats HP 55 → 60, Attack 70 → 75, Sp. Atk 70 → 65, Speed 60 → 55
Type Fire → Fire / Rock
Abilities gains Rock Head and loses Justified

Compared against present-day official data. The Fairy type and hidden abilities arrived after Pokémon Crystal, so a difference here can belong to the series rather than to this hack.
