Tepig is a nimble Pokémon capable of blowing fire from its snout. It will cloak itself in these flames in order to use its [[signature move]], {{m|Heat Crash}}. However, it will spout thick, black smoke when ill. Tepig will roast berries before eating them, but occasionally gets overexcited and burns them.

====Other====

Tepig debuted in ''[[BW001|In the Shadow of Zekrom!]]'', under the ownership of [[Professor Juniper]]. It was one of the [[starter Pokémon]] presented to [[Trip]] so he could choose his first Pokémon. However, he chose {{TP|Trip|Snivy}} over Tepig.

====Trophy information====
'''NA''': ''Tepig, the Fire Pig Pokémon. Instead of breathing fire from its mouth or ears, Tepig does so from its nostrils. Powerful in battle, Tepig's fire is also great for roasting berries, though it can get carried away and char them. Even as clumsy as it can be, who could possibly resist such a cute Pokémon?''
'''PAL''': ''Tepig is a Fire Pig Pokémon. It blows fire through...its mouth? Nope... Its ears? That's not right either... Oh, of course - its nose! That skill's not just handy in battle - it also lets Tepig roast its favourite food, berries! Sadly, it sometimes gets a little too excited about the idea and accidentally burns them to a crisp. Ahh, Tepig, you're too adorable!''

'''PAL''': ''Tepig is a Fire Pig Pokémon. It blows fire through...its mouth? Nope... Its ears? That's not right either... Oh, of course - its nose! That skill's not just handy in battle - it also lets Tepig roast its favourite food, berries! Sadly, it sometimes gets a little too excited about the idea and accidentally burns them to a crisp. Ahh, Tepig, you're too adorable!''

===Origin===
===Origin===
Tepig is based on a {{wp|British Saddleback}} piglet. [[Ken Sugimori]] has said that Tepig, Pignite, and Emboar were designed in a Chinese style. Because of this, Tepig may be based on {{wp|Zhu Bajie}}, a pig demon from the Chinese tale ''{{wp|Journey to the West}}''.
