Combusken

Ruby
COMBUSKEN toughens up its legs and thighs by running through fields and mountains. This POKéMON’s legs possess both speed and power, enabling it to dole out ten kicks in one second.
Sapphire
COMBUSKEN battles with the intensely hot flames it spews from its beak and with outstandingly destructive kicks. This POKéMON’s cry is very loud and distracting.
Emerald
It lashes out with 10 kicks per second. Its strong fighting instinct compels it to keep up its offensive until the opponent gives up.
