Pyroar (Japanese: カエンジシ Kaenjishi) is a dual-type Fire/Normal Pokémon.

It evolves from Litleo starting at level 35.

Biology

Pyroar is a quadruped, leonine Pokémon. It is mostly dark brown with light brown legs, tail tip, chest, and face. A male Pyroar has a large, dominantly red mane with gold streaks forming pattern resembling the Daimonji symbol 大. The shape also resembles the symbol for fire 火. In contrast, a female has a long, gold and red mane extending from its forehead to the whole length of its body. Pyroar's irises are tinted azure with black pupils.

Pyroar live in prides, led by the male with the largest mane of fire, and the females protect the pride's cubs. Pyroar viciously threatens any challenger with a fiery breath exceeding 10,000 degrees Fahrenheit. It and its pre-evolution Litleo are the only known Pokémon that can learn Noble Roar.

Trivia

  • No other Pokémon has the same type combination as Pyroar and its pre-evolution.
  • Pyroar is the only Pokémon with a base stat total of 507.
  • Pyroar shares its category with Slowking. They are both known as the Royal Pokémon.
  • Though the male Pyroar has a chevron-shaped nose in its official artwork and in Pokémon Battle Trozei, all other merchandise, game, and anime artwork shows it with a triangular shaped nose, similar to that of the female.

Origin

Pyroar is based on a lion. The style of its fur, in particular the spiked areas on its limbs and tail, more than likely is a reference to stylized lions in heraldry and coat of arms. The yellow pattern on the mane of a male Pyroar is similar in shape to the Daimonji, a bonfire lit during the Japanese festival Gozan no Okuribi in the shape of the symbol 大 (meaning great or large). The shape also resembles the kanji for fire (火), as written in certain (often calligraphic) styles. Its gender ratio (12.5% male, 87.5% female) also resembles lions prides, which consist of one primary male lion, several females and one or two lesser males.

Name origin

Pyroar may be a combination of pyr- and roar.

Kaenjishi is a combination of 火炎 kaen (flame) and 獅子 shishi (lion).
