I’m definitely getting this growlithe because this version is based on the Okinawa’s mythical island guardian, the Shisa dogs, like there were statues of them everywhere on the island and I even have a set of them (still looking for them TnT)
Apple Bloom: Good morning, ev'rypony. We look forward to having more visitors at the Sanctuary of Harmony.
Sweetie Belle: I can't believe how fast 3 years had passed for us. That's how long we've been statues of stone.
Scootaloo: We all hope you'll have a great day today.
Les 5 statues du Sanctuaire, et une question que tout le monde se pose : Dans quel camp il joue Atlan, c'est quoi ces cachoteries ? 👑🙏
Hisuian Growlithe is likely inspired by Komainu (狛犬), mythic guardian lions from Buddhist cosmology that often protect the entrances to temples and shrines in the form of statues. Awesome design! I love it!

The Hisuian Growlithe statues, a common protective symbol in the Sinnoh region #PokemonLegendsArceus
repost! Remember the "Who's That Big Man?" FatT zine? I loved drawing an Ashen dressed in fashion based on marble statues for one of the postcard designs. Still one of my favourite things I've ever drawn
Hisuian Growlithe pair based on Shishi, or Fu/foo dogs. I know that they’re really based on Komainu statues but this is a personal project ^^

Alma-Tadema il faisait souvent des statues toutes blanches ok mais il arrive quand même à créer ces très belles ambiances antiques avec des peintures murales colorées
ヒスイのガーディ!ちょっと沖縄の狛犬っぽいね。Hisuian Growlithe! You kinda remind of the Okinawa statues buddy.#PokemonLegendsArceus #PokemonGo
Hisuian Growlithe is such a good design. It takes clear direction from growlithe's original inspiration in both design and typing (Komainu/Shisa; lion-dog statues) It also just fits in really well with the sinnoh Pokedex aesthetic? All around good boy. First regional I'm sold on.
- Hisuian Arcanine 2.0-
Alternate scheme or now that I think about it > Shinny ✨
I simply flipped its colors around for a more Komainu vibe. Traditionally, the statues tend to have red lines for eye lids and lips so yeah…

Strange is it not? Since the toppling of historic statues and all the "What if" conversations in history and alternate timelines. The matter is getting popular now in Magazines, documents and TV series. Some people say this is just too far? Pfft it ain't too far at all.
Caninos a également droit a une forme régionale de Hisui de type Feu/Roche dont le design s'inspire des Komainu (pas sûr du nom) statues gardiennes que l'on retrouve dans les sanctuaires Shintoïstes #PokemonLegendsArceus
My thought no one asked for:
Komainu and Shishi are legendary dogs (Arcanine) often depicted as statues (rock type) with circular fur (growlithe's chest) and Komainu even has a HORN sometimes!!
I can already picture Arcanine always sitting in that same pose every game ever
