Tepig @ Assault Vest
Ability: Thick Fat
EVs: 252 Atk / 236 SpD
Adamant Nature
- Flare Blitz
- Wild Charge
- Head Smash
- Stomping Tantrum

Kind of recoil-heavy, but it's not meant to stick around too long, just get a bit of damage in. Flare Blitz is STAB. Wild Charge helps deal with Tepig's Water weakness. Head Smash is coverage. Stomping Tantrum helps counter Rock types.

Tepig @ Focus Sash
Ability: Blaze
Level: 5
EVs: 252 Atk / 236 Spe
Hasty Nature
- Flame Charge
- Sucker Punch
- Stomping Tantrum
- Fire Blast

Mixed Blaze set? Why not. A Focus Sash is used to survive a hit, (hopefully) activating Blaze. Thick Fat isn't super useful, in my opinion, since it resists both Fire and Ice, so I went ahead and utilized Blaze. Hasty to boost Speed without lowering Attack or Special Attack. Flame Charge is STAB boosted by Blaze that also increases Speed. Sucker Punch is priority and coverage. Stomping Tantrum is boosted if Sucker Punch fails. Fire Blast is STAB that doesn't have recoil, plus it is Special so it can hit physically defensive Pokemon, and it's boosted by Blaze.
