Grant (Arcanine)
Grant is Sakura's Arcanine and her starter, thus being with her for far more time than any other member of the team.
Appearance
His appearance is that of a regular Arcanine, if a bit bigger, his fur is really smooth, probably because Sakura gives him lots of poffins.
As a human, he looks like a young adult and wears a orange jacket with stripes similar to the ones he had as a Pokémon, he wears a cream colored shirt under it and orange pants with the same stripes as before, he has a somewhat long and a bit messy hair of the same creamy color as his fur was as an Arcanine, his eyes are black and he was wears sneakers of the same style and color as the jacket and also black leather gloves.

History
Grant was given to Sakura as an egg when she was five and since then he was her loyal partner, and the subject of the sister's first big fight. After the accident that separated the sisters and killed their's parents, he always stood by Sakura's side and comforted her, always protecting her before and after Hikari found them.
Relationships
Grant is fiercily loyal to Sakura
Grant is good friends with everybody on the team, even Shade, he frequently helps Dusty with his low-self esteem and is always there to comfort him. He never takes part on Lily and Stella's plots, and often scolds them for that, together with Serenity.
He gets along pretty well with Seth, and likes to play with Dylan, and babysits him when Sakura isn't around. He also got a small fan in Sparkers much to his surprise and the two got along almost immediatelly, Sparkers admiration for him made him quite proud of himself.
Most of Sakura's friends are also Grant's, but he likes Hikari in special and silently ships Sakura and Rawst

- He didn't lose a single battle at the moment, the only battles Sakura lost didn't have him involved in it.
- He was involved in all of Sakura's gym battles, except Pryce's, where only Dylan and Seth participated.
