🧸 Little Cup
Hisuian Growlithe is a phenomenal Pokémon for the Little Cup, using its great moveset and excellent offensive coverage to beat more than half of the meta.
Aside from the expected targets of Fire and Rock attacks (along with Crunch), Hisuian Growlithe also takes down Chansey, Igglybuff, and Wigglytuff. However, it also loses quite a lot, notably because of its double weakness to Ground and especially Water, a prominent type in PvP. Additionally, it also loses to Deino, Dratini, Bronzor, Skorupi, and Wynaut.
🔵 Great League
Even though Hisuian Growlithe maxes out at 1495 CP, it is still quite good in the Great League due to the same reasons it succeeds in the Little Cup: moveset and coverage.
Its main victims are Bug, Fire, and Flying types but it has to be quite wary of Water types, which are often present in a Great League team. Ultimately, Hisuian Growlithe is a fun pick for this format but there's way better options in both the Fire and Rock typing.
Hisuian Growlithe is too weak for the Ultra and Master League.
