Emboar is the final evolution of Tepig, one of the region's starter Pokémon, evolving from Pignite. As a large, bipedal pig-like Pokémon, Emboar is known for its fiery beard and the flame patterns on its body, embodying strength and passion. In the games, Emboar is a formidable physical attacker with a high Attack stat, often utilizing powerful Fire and Fighting-type moves. Its presence in the anime, particularly as the fully evolved starter of Ash's rival Trip, showcased its battling prowess and strong will. Emboar's design draws inspiration from various cultural elements, including sumo wrestlers and Zhu Bajie from the classic Chinese novel Journey to the West, giving it a unique cultural significance. Its Fire/Fighting typing gives it an advantage against Grass, Ice, Bug, Steel, Dark, and Normal types, but a disadvantage against Water, Ground, Flying, Psychic, and Fairy types. Mega Emboar would logically amplify these characteristics, presenting an even more imposing and powerful version of the already strong Emboar.
