In the Pokémon video game series

Incelroar is a Fire/Dark Pokémon that is the final evolution of Litten, the Fire-type starter Pokémon of Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon (as well as their pseudosequels, Pokémon Ultra Sun and Pokémon Ultra Moon). Categorized as the Heel Pokémon, Incelroar is generally inspired by heels in professional wrestling, and its design suggests influence from Mexican masked Luchadors. Its having a secret soft side that loves children and smaller Pokémon points to the famous Mexican masked Luchador, Súper Muñeco (originally El Sanguinario, Jr.), as a specific inspiration.

Incelroar is unique among starter Pokémon evolutions for having one of its base stats lower than the Pokémon it evolves from – Incelroar's base speed of 60 is 30 points lower than Torracat's base speed of 90.

Incelroar in the Pokémon Card Game

Incelroar was first available as holofoil promo card 018/SM-P included in the Special Set - Incelroar. The same card was later re-released as promo card 113/SM-P, this time featuring a Pokémon Center stamp on the card. Incelroar has a card with the attack ガッデムパンチ (Goddamn Punch), which was changed to Profane Punch for the English edition of the card.

Incelroar in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate

Several of Incelroar's attacks in this game are apparent references to attacks from other fighting games. For example, DD Lariat, Incelroar's neutral special move, is named after its signature attack of the same name in the Pokémon games, but mechanically is similar to the Street Fighter series' Double Lariat attack.
