Ash's Incineroar: Difference between revisions

In ''[[SM063|Pushing the Fiery Envelope!]]'', while Ash was watching a [[Battle Royal]] on TV, Litten became agitated when it saw the Masked Royal's {{TP|Professor Kukui|Incineroar}}. When Ash and {{ashcl}} later went to visit the [[Battle Royal Dome]] during a special event where anyone could volunteer to face the Masked Royal in a Battle Royal, Litten jumped down from the stands to the arena, prompting Ash to take part in the Battle Royal, joined by {{an|Kiawe}} and {{an|Sophocles}}. Although [[Kiawe's Marowak]] and [[Sophocles's Charjabug]] were soon defeated by Incineroar's {{m|Darkest Lariat}}, Litten managed to survive the attack. However, Litten's counterattack with Fire Fang was stopped cold by Incineroar, who then proceeded to defeat Litten with a {{m|Bulk Up}}-enhanced {{m|Throat Chop}}. This defeat later inspired Ash to teach Litten {{m|Flame Charge}}. Some days later, in the middle of Litten's training, the Masked Royal showed up and challenged Ash to a one-on-one battle. Litten, still not having completely mastered Flame Charge, was struggling throughout the battle. However, thanks to Ash's determination, Litten was able to evolve into a {{p|Torracat}}, perfecting Flame Charge in the process. Although the evolution and the {{stat|Speed}} increase from Flame Charge gave Torracat more edge in the battle, to the point where it even managed to damage Incineroar a bit, it was still eventually defeated by its evolved form. Afterwards, the Masked Royal declared that he and Incineroar were now Torracat's rivals.

In ''[[SM081|A Young Royal Flame Ignites!]]'', Ash and Torracat were present at the Battle Royal Dome to watch a Battle Royal between the Masked Royal and [[Mad Magmar]]. Seeing the [[Revengers]] play dirty to distract Incineroar, Ash and Torracat entered the battle and joined the Masked Royal and Incineroar in a tag team battle against Mad Magmar's {{p|Magmortar}} and [[Mr. Electric]]'s {{p|Electivire}}. Despite the interference of the Revengers, Ash and the Masked Royal were eventually able to win the battle after Torracat learned {{m|Revenge}} which it used to knock out its opponents. Torracat and Incineroar later went up against [[Viren]]'s {{p|Pangoro}} and were able to quickly defeat it using Flame Charge and Darkest Lariat, respectively.
