Tepig is the pure Fire starter choice you get with the Unova Region. With the design of Tepig, I'd say it's about sub-par, like it looks fine, but it just doesn't really stand out amongst other fire type starter designs I feel. Then it's kind of the same with it's battling capabilities too, it has an alright movepool, but it doesn't have that great of stats or great abilities to really back the movepool up. It's more or less just that other fire type starters tend to be better within their designated regions, whereas Tepig is more or less a disappointment in playthroughs, at least to me, which is ultimately what made me choose to rank Tepig at this spot.
