So, turns out using Burn Up doesn't make you a normal-type if you're pure fire. Guess that means no stab E-speed for pic related.
In before hacked Wonder Guard Burn Up users.
So literally no reason to bother with it instead of Overheat, unless you're trying to prevent SE damage with a defensive Arcanine set.

Overheat doesn't have 100% accuracy and it lowers your SpA every time. Burn Up is still strong even without STAB.

Maybe it's a fail-safe type the game goes to so that if you were to somehow lose your type, it won't crash.
Like, the games way of avoiding dividing by zero.

Lest we forget, some of the most common attacking moves are 80BP...which in turn become 120BP after stab.
Burn Out is 130BP....it's a 195BP baby nuke after initial stab with a healthy amount of aftershock.
