What does Arcanine do now that Burn Up is gone, or is there no real need to drop the Fire type anymore to dodge those Earthquakes?

Goodra UR -> B/B- Using the same sets from Gen 8 (I haven't even really touched the stats, so smarter people than me can probably cook up some new ones) Goodra can take hits from common powerful attacking threats and KO in return, while offering at least a small chance to take down fairy types...
