To people picking the pig..Why?
>>58186724He's cute!
>>58186724I haven't chosen Tepig as a starter since I was 12 and I've used the other two starters in Silver & Heartgold within the last few years.
I used to hate the pig but if its mega is cool I might go for it since the other two starter megas aren't looking great
>>58186724I’ll trade it to a friend, but even if I wasn’t they’re a cute guy with a powerful movesetUnfortunately Delphox is getting a mega so…into the trading box you go!
>>58186724if I pick the pig it will because I got a 3 or a 6 on a dice roll
>>58186724>Cute>He's lot little trunks and a little mask and little gloves like a widdle pwo wesswler>Eventually turns into a warthog Snorlax with a flaming beard and giant hammer armsThat's a 10/10 monster, pal.
>>58186724it might not seem that way because Emboar;s famdom has recently ben flooded with secondaries due to it being a shillmon now and Typhlosion's the starter Pedo Freak told them to hate, but Emboar has ALWAY had a small but present fandom who didn't get filtered by stupid shit like a pig being fat, or a starter sharing a type with another starter.
>>58186742Just had a birthday.
>>58186742Yeah, pigs are my favorite animal and I never used Blaziken or Infernape so Fire/Fighting was fresh for me
>>58186724His mega is getting a fire spear and a cool hat. Name another starter that has a fire spear and a cool hat?
He was my pick when playing my first Pokémon game, thirteen years ago, and now Z-A is looking to be my last. Only fitting to go out with the guy that started it all, methinks
>>58186724grass and water types are usually way more common than fire types in any given game
>>58186724I never picked Tepig for BW/BW2 so this is gonna be a first
>>58186724I'm anti muslim and anti jew
>>58186763
>>58186724Tepig is one of my favourite first stage starters, really cute. Emboar is cool, always reminded me of Ganon. idk, I just like the line.
>>58186731also evolves into cool
>>58186752Nice I hope it had lots of good food to eat
You're a giant queer if you don't pick the pig
>>58186724because Chikorita is still the single worst starter ever
>>58186724Totodile is my bro unless I find out how his regional evo is terrible. But Tepig had the best evo in BW compared to the other 2
>>58186724Because he's haram and I wanna piss off Allah
>>58186724Emboar is my nigga, I always use him when replaying the unova games and despite how much I love using it, feraligatr is my OG nigga so I'll have to go with the 'gatr.
>>58187105>regional evoanon, I...
>>58187107Keeping a pig as a pet isn't haram, eating it is.
>>58187105Gatr's mega will probably get mixed reception when it's revealed. Best looking ones will probably be Meganium's or Emboar's.
>>58186724Because Mega Emboar basically being Lu Bu is sick as fuck>But Mega DelphoxWhen XY came out for the first time I had Mega Blaziken, MegaZard Y, Delphox and Bravest Bird on my team and made it work. If I could do it then I can do it again now.
>>58186724It makes me nostalgic for the starter wars of the early BW days
>>58186752Fucking nice, dude. Always gotta love and appreciate your ever faithful bro.
>>58187237im working on getting a shiny emboar to transfer to plza
>>58187214>Mega ZardY might be backBeing able to just flex out a Solar Beam was rad
Gen 5 still the best gen
Infernape should have been mono fireEmboar should have been fire darkIncineroar should have been fire fightingCinderace should have been fire fightingThere, fire starters are officially fixed
I always pick Fire type, unless there's a clear and compelling reason to not do so (which has only happened in Gen 7 and 9 with Popplio and Spritatito) and L: Z-A similarly offers no clear and compelling reason to pick either grass or water starter, when I'm beelining for Fennekin's spawn and attempting to find a female at the earliest possible opportunity to use as my starter.
>>58187518Infernape and Embaor were based off Journey to the West characters, Incineroar's heel persona precludes being honourable fighting type (heels' whole shtick is to piss the fans off, fight dirty and cheat) and football is not a martial art, so the football rabbit SHOULDN'T also get an inherent martial discipline affinity. Fix your own retarded assumptions.
>>58187592BasedI see no reason to pick water when there’s usually an abundance (esp in kanto and hoenn)And grass is always almost also in plenty supplyEspecially in 1-4 where good fire types are rarely found early, It just makes the most sense
>>58186724I'm not picking Tepig as I'm sentimental to Totodile but I will say that Emboar fans have been so chill on this board that I've went from neutral to a fan of its designemboar appreciation video:https://youtu.be/p_AUzi3bUVw?si=Id9rwa9zlXGMd-Tc
>>58186724most faithful starter
>>58187016The coolest!
the fanbase for tepig feel so forced
>>58187787Why?
>>58187787Incineroar and Hawlucha boosted Emboar's fanbase. Before he seemed out of place, but now he's part of a small club of pro wrestlers. There's the heel, the high flyer, and the super heavyweight.
>>58187787they are unovan fans
>>58186724It’s cute. Pignite and Emboar are cool. I always pick the Fire starter too
>>58187813even they don’t like the pig. Especially when darmanitan does the physical fire type archetype much better
>>58187820>I always pick the fire starterFunny, I almost never pick the fire starter. I go grass or water every time in every Gen except 5 and 7. Yes, it's cause they're wrestlers.
>>58187824Nah I go Emboar because he's cooler.And Unova has ferrothorn and jellicent so there's my water/grass types.
>>58186731>Gay retard wearing a diaper>Evolves into a big fat chinese loserHate this line more than anything in these games.
>>58186752Nice anon.I miss my own TEPIG
>>58187827Based wrestler enjoyer. That’s why I chose Litten
One day I want a team full of pigs, it'll be so comfy
>>58187904
>>58187917Shush
to eat
>>58187930You wouldn't eat such a cute lad, would you?
>>58186724I like Zhang Fei
>>58186724Because he's my favorite pokemon and I share fond memories with him while playing BW. Plus, his shiny is so cool.
>>58186724I like it more than the other twosimple as
>>58187089best*
>>58186724They have bellies
>>58188598Cute boyfriends
Wrestlebros
>>58189219>>58188598so cute
>>58186724I am going to pick Chesnaught as a second starter and I'm not too bother about Chandelure so Emboar is going to be my fire starterAnd just as I type this I realized they are both fighting (and I want to get Barbanacle too) so who the fuck knows
>>58186736Can you trade? There are not two versions of this
>>58186724Gotta love how in the teraleak when they were originally pitching megas they said "we want megas for pokemon that people love, like Charizard, not mega Emboar" (or something like that, but yeah, specifically saying people didn't want mega emboar)
>>58188598Some of the mons with the least amount of tgc cards ever right there. They really need the megas
>>58189394Right? I never got the hate for his line, do people just hate pigs that much?
>>58189591I think it was popular to hate gen 5 when it came out + it became fire fighting which almost everyone didn't want for a third time in a row
>>58188598Painfully adorableI hope there’s a series of comics with these two getting into shenanigans. I’d pay for that
>>58190136Pignite is extraordinarily wholesome!
>>58190136>PMD story with two fighter bros doing jobs I'm all in
>>58189404Going Tepig/Chespin too, I'll work around the double fighting. Maybe chesnaught will change typing when he mega evolves?
Schmoving
>>58190639Look at him go
>>58190164yes plssss
i actually didnt know he was this loved on here based
SHHHHHHHHH!!! BE QUIET! EVERYBODY BE QUIET, HE'S SLEEPING! I SAID TEPIG IS SLEEPING!!! WHAT!? NO, I DIDNT HEAR YOU, WHAT!? NO SERIOUSLY, I ACTUALLY DIDN'T HEAR WHAT YOU SAID. oh, I said TEPIG IS SLEEEEEEEEEPING!!!!! SO BE! REALLY! QUIET! PLEASE! AND! THANK! YOU! SHHHHHHHHHHHHHH-
>>58186742I don't care about pigs being fat, I just think Emboar is a shit design. The colour scheme is bad and I don't like its belt-thing but by far the biggest issue is the head, if it just had an actual piglike head instead of the weird flat cartoon-character face with a pig nose slapped on it could be a decent design.
>>58187518You made them all worse.
>>58187228How old is this comic?
>>58191441I do like pigs and Tepig was actually my favourite in the BW prerelease days before we say the final forms and I went with Samurott. I don't even mind anthro starter designs either, I quite like a lot of the newer ones like Incineroar and Inteleon. But I just can't get over Emboar's stupid ugly head, if it just had an actual boar's head it could be so good.I guess I have to hope the hat on the mega will cover up most of its face.
>>58186724He is cuteHe is strongHe is FaithfulYou can't go wrong with him.
>>58191413stfu let tepig sleep
>>58187126It absolutely it. Pigs are filthy and untouchable.
>>58191533no u
Tepig is cool but Emboar is one of the worstest mons in the series
>>58192375>Tepig is cool but Emboar is one of the bestest mons in the seriesFTFY
>>58191307He's a lil bundle of energy
>>58186724>Tepig is a fire, Sumo/Wrestler pig>Bitches love TepigWhat's not to lke about Tepig.
>>58186724because the other options are shitorita and tardodile.
>>58192375Emboar should've been fire/ghost or fire/dark because he looks demon like.
>>58195074>Demon like He looks cute, anon
>>58195074Unironically an improvement for Totodile.
>>58187904add Mankey/Annihilape and then you only need 1 more to go
>>58196047I love the Anger Pig
>>58191441>colour scheme is badExplain what that means, Euro-kun
>>58186731FPBP
There's a tranny where i work who has a tepig keychain. Tepig is the trans choice.
>>58186724pige
>>58197735I concur
