Fire Pokemon in Emerald

[Destroyer_of_Worlds]

What's a good Fire type in pokemon Emerald? I'm assembling a type team.;219;
At the time, I'm deciding between Slugma and Numel to evolve into Magcargo and Camerupt, but neither of them have very high hp, which is important to me.

 

[Inazuma]

Torkoal = Awesome.

Well, you can try catching a Vulpix, then evolving it into Ninetales. It has about 220 HP when it has a beneficial nature.

 

[Destroyer_of_Worlds]

220? wow that's alot. By the way, Torkoal is pretty good, but i like evolving pokemon so i have something to look forward to.

 

[Inazuma]

Yeah,but Torkoal has a max of over 400 Def. with a beneficial nature iirc.

 

[Trainer of Legends]

Yeah,but Torkoal has a max of over 500 Def. with a beneficial nature iirc.

Well, Ninetales is pretty high in all the other stats. Torkoal wouldn't be a bad choice, I guess. It's all up to Destroyer, anyway.

i've decided to go with camerupt because he can be used as an anti-fire as well. With his ground moves and all. Feel free to post more replys though.

Ninetales is the best FIRE PKMN in Emerald.

 

[~Nidoking~]

Yeah Id say ninetails.Campurnt is good but big4x weakness to waters bad

 

[Charizard_Millky]

ninetales is pretty good so i would go with that

 

[Seer]

I used Camerupt on my first team through Sapphire. I loved him to pieces. He was an excellent pokemon, ground/fire is a very nice typing (in my mind). Sure he has that 4x weakness... but you can always switch ya?

Umm, let's start by saying HP isn't the most important factor of a pokemon. If you chose Torchic as your starter, then go with Blaziken. It's the best Fire-type you can get in Emerald. Or else, just go with Ninetales.

 

[squirrel boy]

ninetails or macargo

Haha, I did the same when I had Ruby ages ago. Camerupt was great but then I started with Torchic in Emerald...

 

[Twilit Dragoon]

Camerupt is a great Pokemon if you didn't choose Trochic as a starter. I have one at Lvl 100 and love it.

 

[Ashen]

Before the E4, Camerupt is a pretty good Pkmn to use, since you can use its Ground-type moves as well (though, it doesn't learn many good Fire moves on its own, save Ember). After the E4, though, since you're playing Emerald, hit the Safari Zone and get yourself a Houndour (make sure to breed it, though, so you can get all the EV benefits from leveling it from L5).

 

[nubinator]

Blaziken, Ninetales... Houndoom is preety good too.

 

[Mew3]

I say Houndoom, it pwns.

 

[Lord Scalgon]

^ What he said. Also makes a great counter to water-types, despite the fact it's a fire-type, but only with this moveset:

Flamethrower
Crunch
Sunny Day
Solarbeam <= teh pwnage. (did a typo on purpose.)

 

[Yuna]

Go with Torkoal, Ninetales or Houndoom. I would say that Houndoom is very good if you use clear moveset. I would go with this:
-Crunch
-Flamethrower
-Pursuit
-Will-o-Wisp
or
- Sunny Day
- Solarbeam
- Crunch
- Flamethrower
Torkoal is kinda fine because Defence, but his Speed sucks and his Attacks aren`t that special too, so if you want something really strong, don`t pick Torkoal as your leader.
Ninetales is fine, here is a moveset:
- Fire Blast/Overheat - she needs something really strong
- Will-o-wisp
- Grudge
- Substitute
