Well, for starters (lolpun) he is the THIRD Firefighter type Starter in a ROW. I'm sick of these, come up with another type damnit!! Second, compared to Blaziken and Infernape, he is awful. He is slow, and very frail, despite having a good HP stat. The first two are fast and furious, while Emboar can't outspeed anything unless he's Jolly with a Choice Scarf, and even when he has those he'll likeley get killed in 1-2 shots from any neutruel to supereffective hit. Third, I hate pigs.
