Pignite is a musclebound pig-like Pokémon that was introduced in the fifth generation games. It is the middle stage of Tepig's evolutionary line, with its evolved form being Emboar.

Information

Pignite evolves from Tepig at Level 17. In the transition between forms, Pignite gains muscles (becoming part Fighting-type) and becomes bipedal. Pignite has an internal fire within its stomach that seems to be the source of its flame abilities. This internal fire is fueled by anything that Pignite eats. Its movements become sharper and faster when the fire is flaring up, and it emits smoke when in trouble. The intensity of Pignite's flame increases when it is angry.

It evolves into Emboar at Level 36.

Appearances

Mainstream Games

In the color versions, Pignite can only be obtained by evolving a Tepig.

In Pokémon Rumble Blast, Pignite was found at the meadow area of Trailhead Field and the lava areas of Volcanic Slope and World Axle's first basement floor. In PokéPark 2: Wonders Beyond, it could appear at Cove Town where it had to be defeated by Tepig to be befriended.
