⚔️ Raids
Emboar is a decent Fire-type raid attacker with above-average DPS, but it won’t last long enough to output substantial damage.
🛡️ Gyms
The Shiny flex looks very cool, which is the most value you will get out of your Emboar defending a gym.
🔮 Dynamax
Emboar is not currently available to Dynamax.

🔵 Great League
Emboar is an extremely attack-weighted Pokémon with a dual Fire/Fighting typing, which doesn’t help it defensively. It can handle Grass- and Ice-types, but those are few and far between in the current open Great League meta. Unfortunately, Emboar’s poor PvP stats and slow moveset prevent it from having any meaningful impact in Great League. Perhaps a future movepool update will give it more bite.
🟡 Ultra League
There are many better Fire-types for your PvP team, such as Talonflame and Typhlosion. Emboar’s slow moveset and typing make it useless in all but a few matchups in Ultra League.
🟣 Master League
Metagross won’t be happy to see Emboar, but otherwise, it’s best left on the bench at this point.
