Undubbed character This article is about a character featured in the Pokémon anime who has not yet debuted in the English language dub.
As such, their information may contain romanized Japanese names, rather than dub names.

(Japanese: スワマ Suwama) is the former Trainer of Ash's Tepig, serving as a character of the day in BW077.

Suwama was first introduced in person in BW077 where he was in the Battle Club having a Double Battle, using Emboar and Heatmor, with Kensō that Ash and his friends witnessed. Because of his preference for Fire-types, he refers to himself and his team as the "Fire Warriors". He won the battle rather easily. Afterwards he confronted Kensō and told him to hand over his Pokémon to him, causing Ash and the others to confront him briefly. He did not take Kensō's Pokémon due to Don George walking by after that.

Tepig being abandoned by Suwama

While having lunch alone, Ash's Tepig saw him and ran up to him affectionately. It would turn out that he was the Trainer who had abandoned Tepig before the events of The Battle Club and Tepig's Choice!, abandoning him after he lost to a Deerling in a battle despite having the type-advantage. Since Tepig kept trying to go with him, he had tied him to a post. Seeing Tepig with Ash, he told Ash that he abandoned it because of its uselessness, hitting Ash in the nerve. While Ash and Iris found this to be cruel, he defended his actions and explained that it was done for Tepig's own good as forcing a "talentless" Pokémon to battle would be worse than releasing it.

To settle the matter, Don George recommended that Suwama and Ash battle each other to which both agreed to be a Double Battle. Ash decided to use Tepig and Snivy, however Tepig did not wish to battle against his former Trainer. He had the impression that Suwama still cared for him and only released him because he cared. However, he would reveal that he only pretends to be pained by releasing a weak Pokémon so that if he ever encounters them again they would be hesitant to battle him. The revelation left Tepig crushed. Although Snivy ended up defeated by a Flare Blitz/Fire Spin combination attack, Tepig managed to hang on and evolve into a Pignite in the process. Using his new attack, Fire Pledge, as well as a powerful Flame Charge, he was able to defeat both of his opponents. Impressed by Pignite's new power, Suwama asked it to come back to him, but Pignite simply responded by scorching his head with Flamethrower.

Pokémon

This listing is of Suwama's known Pokémon in the anime:

On hand

Suwama's Emboar
Emboar
Emboar was first used in a Double Battle with Heatmor against Kensō's Watchog and Mienshao, seen standing up to Watchog's Slam, and heavily damaging the two Pokémon with Hammer Arm. He was used again against Ash's Tepig and Snivy. In the middle of the battle, he ended up being infatuated by Snivy's Attract. This infatuation was short lived as it along with Heatmor was able to defeat Snivy. Although performing many powerful moves, including a combination of his Flare Blitz and Heatmor's Fire Spin, he was eventually knocked out by Ash's newly evolved Pignite. Emboar is probably a replacement for Suwama's released Tepig.

Emboar's known moves are Hammer Arm, Flamethrower, Heat Crash and Flare Blitz.
