Incineroar

() is a /-type Pokémon introduced in Generation VII who is the final evolved form of Litten.
==Biology==
===Physiology===
Incineroar is a muscular, bipedal feline Pokémon resembling an anthropomorphic tiger. It is colored mostly red and black, with banded stripes covering its arms, legs, and tail. It has green eyes with yellow schlera, five-fingered hands with sharp claws, and a gray-colored torso resembling a sleeveless muscle shirt with black markings. Around its waist is a flaming red, orange, and yellow belt, out of which Incineroar produces its fire attacks.
===Behavior===
Incineroar is a violent, aggressive Pokémon known for its brutal prowess in battle; this trait allows Incineroar to excel in battles without holding back on its own. It is known to be indifferent and arrogant, even refusing to battle weak or injured foes, though it is said Incineroar deep down loves praise and attention and plays its antagonistic "heel" impression for show.
When battling, Incineroar can get too immersed in participating in the combat, and in worst cases one can drag their innocent Trainer into the fight. This makes Incineroar being spurned by the majority who keep their distance with them. 
When they start to get attached to small Pokémon and children, nonetheless, Incineroar actually feel immense joy even though they usually put up a cool facade towards the former. In fact, they will have their fighting spirit attenuated when they have to battle against a more feeble foe, which can unfortunately let down their guard and being taken advantage of.
Despite its seemingly brutal disposition, Incineroar is actually very friendly towards children and will even help out small Pokémon. 
===Natural abilities===
Incineroar's belt (which is its navel) can create very dangerous flames when its fighting spirit is stoked. The flames themselves can reach up to a sweltering 3,600 degress Fahrenheit. 
==Evolution==
Incineroar evolves from Torracat at level 34. It is also the final evolution of Litten.

==Super Smash Bros. series==
===Super Smash Bros. Ultimate===
Incineroar first appeared in the Super Smash Bros. series in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate as a playable character. It has also been revealed that Unshō Ishizuka had been recording his lines as Incineroar in Japanese, prior to his passing in August 2018.
==Trivia==
*Although the Pokédex entry for Pokémon Moon mentions it has a navel, it technically doesn't actually have one as all Pokémon hatch from eggs.
*Incineroar continues the trend of -type Starters being based on animals from the twelve-year Chinese Zodiac, with Incineroar representing the Year of the Tiger.
*In the in-game animations, Incineroar releases its fire attacks from its belt as opposed to its mouth in its previous evolutions. This also makes it one of the few Pokémon to produce fire in a way other than the mouth.
*Incineroar is the second Pokémon character in the Super Smash Bros. series to not introduce a new type as the type was already used by Charizard and the type was already used by Greninja.
**The first Pokémon character to do this was Pichu, as Pikachu already had the type.
*Incineroar is the only starter evolution that has a base stat lower than its pre-evolution (its Speed is lower than Torracat and Litten).
*Incineroar is the only Pokémon playable in the Super Smash Bros. series to not use any moves corresponding to its primary type. Incineroar has access to Darkest Lariat, Max Malicious Moonsault (), Alolan Whip (an attack exclusive to Super Smash Bros. Ultimate), Cross Chop and Revenge ().
*Despite being a part of it's English Name, Incineroar isn't capable of learning Incinerate.
*On June 4, 2016, Incineroar, along with its fellow final Starter evolutions and Mallow had their artwork leaked. From the said leak, it is shown that its code name was "Tiger 3".
===Origin===
Incineroar is based on a tiger and a wrestler, specifically that of a heel, or a villain role wrestler, possibly being the inspiration for its . Its appearance also draws similarities to the popular manga character Tiger Mask, who was also a heel wrestler. Incineroar may also be based on Zangief, a Russian wrestler from the Street Fighter series nicknamed the "Red Cyclone" who, like Incineroar, has a lariat as one of his signature moves. It also has some characteristics of domestic cats.
Its shiny form maybe based on Lucha Libre heels, or rudos, who are often themed in demonic and skeletal motifs, and possibly a white tiger.
===Etymology===
Incineroar comes from incinerate (to burn) and roar (the sound a tiger makes).
Its Japanese name, Gaogaen, likely comes from ガオー (gaō, a roaring sound) and 火炎 (kaen, fire).
