The Rise of Entei!?

If you don't know, the Japan movie event is giving our favourite legendary dogs new movesets. Suicune got the pretty fail Air Slash, Raikou got the ok Aura Sphere, and the almost useless E-Speed, while Entei got Crush Claw, and a move it has been begging for since the D/P... Flare Blitz.

Base 120 power STAB move coming off a base 115 Atk is nothing to laugh at, with a respectable 100 speed backing it up. With An ExtremeSpeed of it's own, a powerful Stone Edge, and even a way to boost it's attack in Howl, Entei may be able to best Arcanine in UU. What are your opinions on this?

The usage will definitely move up, but I doubt it will move up to UU.

Entei is still outclassed by Arcanine. Extremespeed benefited Arcanine a llot more than Entei since Arcanine has lower speed (5 base is a lot when comparing base 95 to base 100), but more importantly, Arcanine has Morning Sun, something that Entei wishes it could have. Really, the new Entei is really the same thing as Pre-HG/SS Arcanine at best, and we all know how "good" Arcanine was before it got Morning Sun. A howl/ES/Stone Edge/Flare Blitz set doesn't even deserve to be called a niche set in UU.

It will be the scum on UU i think, now that bulky defensive arcanine is popular. One thing delta forgot is thunder fang which, if you predict right, is very very useful.
On the other hand

Flare Blitz Entei also has Howl and ESpeed, but he has Stone Edge and bulk that surpasses Arcanine, as well as higher attack power. And higher Speed. Superior Arcanine.

This right here is the reason that Entei has the potential to really shine in UU.

(all quotes from CAL)

Althought Arcanine has an arguably superior effect on offensive terms, Entei may very well take Arcanine's place

I just hope shoddy will implement these moves. I have known about this for quite a while now. Entei's use is definitely gonna rise.
