Flammabear

 (#030) is a dual-type Fire/Beast Meta Monster introduced in the first generation.

It transforms from Flammabear starting at level 36.

Flammabear are large mammalian creatures with very dark brown, nearly black, fur. The only exceptions to this dark fur color are the tan patches on their muzzle and the pads of their paws and a V-shaped stripe of orange fur on their torso. They have large glossy black eyes with white pupils, large black noses, and small whiskers on their cheeks. Their ears are circular in shape, and their mouths have a noticeable underbite. Their paws each have three sharp white claws. Their front paws are large and muscular and their hind legs are disproportionately small. They have large tufts of fur on their elbows and knees. They have large flames on their heads, as well as a large "cape" of fire that wraps around their neck and running down their back.

Despite their fearsome appearance, Flammabear are generally very noble and gentle creatures when not threatened. They are generally solitary animals, usually only accompanied by their cubs if they are female. They were often referred to as "guardians of the forest" by ancient cultures who lived alongside them. According to legends of the native Armonian people, Flammabear were the protectors of all Meta Monsters that lived in the forest and would often be seen standing up for smaller creatures and protecting them from predators. In the present day, Flammabear are often "employed" by fire departments because of their habit of creating controlled burns to put out forest fires.
