I have noticed myself becoming an Arcanine a lot during my TF moods. He is one of my favorite original Pokémon and still is. Since this seems to happen a lot, I thought having a Pokémon alter ego of my character wasn't a half bad idea, and then I remembered that I technically already created such an Arcanine character.
So now I am formally introducing my first and only Pokésona so far, or rather an alternate version of my existing main character, Lukos. Nicknamed "Lukanine" for being myself, Lukos, as an Arcanine. However, in the World of Pokémon, he is still known to others as simply "Lukos." While he can be seen as an alternate dimension version of Lukos in a Pokémon world, or perhaps even an avatar of Malek Lukos himself, no one is aware of their relation to each other, not even Lukanine. For all intents and purposes, he is his own self with his own personality, perspectives, and experiences.
Lukanine comes from the Pokémon Mystery Dungeon (PMD) universe, and is a member of the Expedition Society, a team of Pokémon with the diverse goals of exploration, investigation, and rescue. Lukanine is kind-hearted, gentle, helpful, and loyal. Being a large Arcanine, he is quite a formidable fighter when he needs to be. However, at times he can also be foolhardy, gullible, absent-minded, and a little clumsy. Back at headquarters, he also has a reputation for being a bit of a glutton and lazy, but that's only because he expends so much energy out on his adventures, really~
Lukanine is a powerful Pokémon, but his abilities aren't all that different from your standard Arcanine, so you can expect power, speed, and a lot of flame. Lukanine wears a bandanna on his neck with the Expedition Society emblem in plain view on the front tie, signifying to all Pokémon who he is and what his purpose is when adventuring in any given area. Lukanine will generally accept all types of missions from the Expedition Society, though for investigations he is usually partner to someone else, since he isn't all that great at putting the pieces of a puzzle together. One unusual thing about him is that rather than spend his time in fiery lands and volcanoes, Lukanine loves being sent to cold arctic environments; He has fun in the snow, and his thick fur coat & internal fire greatly protect him against the elements. He also enjoys a natural advantage against any hostile ice type Pokémon that populate these kinds of areas - Easy missions!
Though loyal and dutiful, Lukanine prefers situations that are not dire; Nothing kills a happy mood like worldwide calamities. However, when needed, there are few Pokémon you can depend on more than a good fire dog~

He is pretty big, but that's also standard for Arcanine. I'm not interested in determining official height, and I'm not sure how consistent Pokémon has kept his size throughout the series, but they've certainly been large enough that a human could ride on their back.
For me, it's enough to just say he's as large as an average Arcanine.
