Incineroar (ガオガエン, Gaogaen) is a fictional creature from the Pokémon series. It debuted in the series' seventh generation as Alola's final stage Fire-type starter Pokémon, and represents that generation as a playable character in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.
Creature description
Incineroar is a bipedal, feline Pokémon, and is categorized within the Pokédex as the "Heel Pokémon". Incineroar is a dual Fire/Dark-type Pokémon, and is the final evolved form of Litten, after having evolved from Torracat at level 34 onward. As Litten, it is one of the Alola region's three starter Pokémon.
True to its Pokédex categorization, Incineroar behaves much like a heel in professional wrestling. It is known for being selfish; egotistical to the point of ignoring its own Trainer's commands on a whim; and brutal to the point of even attacking the opposing Pokémon's Trainer. However, Incineroar gets bored of facing off against weaker opponents, and becomes more motivated when fighting challenging ones, similarly to Charizard. In addition to using a mix of punches and kicks within its arsenal, Incineroar can emit streams of flame from its navel. On a related note, it is typically seen with flames ringed around its waist, which fittingly resemble a championship belt.
Incineroar's default Ability is Blaze, which increases its Attack and Special Attack statistics by 50% when it has a third or less of its Hit Points remaining. In comparison, its Hidden Ability is Intimidate, which decreases the Attack stat of an incoming opponent by one stage. Like its fellow fully evolved Alolan starter Pokémon, Decidueye and Primarina, Incineroar has both a signature move and signature Z-Move. In Incineroar's case, it can learn Darkest Lariat, which can be converted into Malicious Moonsault so long as it holds Incinium Z.
In the Pokémon anime, Incineroar appears as the main Pokémon of Professor Kukui in his Masked Royal persona. It developed a rivalry with Ash's Torracat, and is shown to be incredibly powerful in battle. In I Choose You!, an Incineroar appears under the ownership of Cross, the movie's main antagonist.
In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate
Incineroar appears as a newcomer in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. It was revealed during a Nintendo Direct on November 1st, 2018, alongside Ken and Piranha Plant.
