Charizard (

Charmander. It also has two Mega Evolved forms, Mega Charizard X and Y, that were likely both designed by Tomohiro Kitakaze, the designer of Mega Charizard X,[3] and are not permanent and always revert to the normal Charizard form once a battle is complete. It also has a Gigantamax form in Pokémon Sword and Shield
, which changes its appearance and size for 3 turns, until it is knocked out, until it is returned, or until the battle ends.

Charizard is featured in the

Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team, Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky, and Pokémon Super Mystery Dungeon. It has appeared in every entry of the Super Smash Bros. series, in an unplayable capacity in the first two games before becoming a playable character from Super Smash Bros. Brawl onwards. Charizard also appears in the live-action animated film Detective Pikachu
.

Concept and characteristics

Charizard is a fictional species of Pokémon created for the

Pokémon Red and Blue for the Game Boy.[4] In these games, the player assumes the role of a Pokémon Trainer whose goal is to capture and train creatures called Pokémon. Players use the creatures' special abilities to combat other Pokémon, and some can transform into stronger species through a process called evolution.[5]

Charizard was designed by Atsuko Nishida for the first generation of Pocket Monsters games Red and Green, which were localized outside Japan as

portmanteau of the words "charcoal" or "char" and "lizard".[8] During an interview, Pokémon Company
President Tsunekazu Ishihara stated that Charizard was expected to be popular with North American audiences because of their preference for strong, powerful characters.[9]

Physical information

Whereas its pre-evolutions

type instead of the Dragon type upon evolving, it belongs to the Dragon Egg Group, learns Dragon moves like Dragon Claw, and has its Flying type replaced by Dragon in its "Mega Charizard X" form.[12]

The video games describe Charizard as having wings that can carry them close to an altitude of 4,600 feet (1,400 m),[13] flying proudly around the sky and constantly seeking for powerful opponents to battle with.[14] They can breathe flames so intense that they can melt boulders, but will never torch a weaker foe.[15] If Charizard becomes angry, the flame at the tip of their tail can flare up in a whitish-blue color.[16] Because of their reckless behavior, Charizard are known to unintentionally cause wildfires.[17] While Mega Charizard X is known for its black, toned body, hotter blue flames as well as its Dragon type,[18] Mega Charizard Y is generally regarded for its flying prowess, with it allegedly being able to reach up to 10,000 meters of altitude while flying.[19][20] Charizard exists in two forms, its original form with an orange body and a cream-coloured patch on its belly, and its rare shiny form, which has a gray body with the same cream-coloured patch on its belly. Charizard's shiny form first made its appearance in Pokémon Gold and Silver, and could be encountered in many games afterwards, including in Pokémon Go, such as during special Community Day events featuring Charmander. During the Community Day event, shiny Charmander could be encountered with higher frequency, which could be evolved into a shiny Charmeleon, and in turn, evolved into a shiny Charizard.[21] In Generation VIII, Charizard is capable of Gigantamaxing, a special type of Dynamaxing wherein it completely changes Charizard's form. When Gigantamaxed, Charizard's belly is all lit up, its wings are cloaked in fire, and its tail flame has grown as well. If Charizard knows any Fire-type damage dealing moves, they will be transformed into G-Max Wildfire, which deals damage for five turns. Gigantamax Charizard is best seen during battles with Galarian Champion Leon. The player can also get a Gigantamax Charizard by obtaining a Charmander in a Poké Ball in Leon's house (the Poké Ball is located in his bedroom) and evolving it into Charizard.[22]

Competitive battling

From its release in the first generation to

fanboys".[25] One exception is in the third generation
, where its typing and moves made it a good choice versus some common Pokémon.

In singles, Charizard periodically found niches, such as with the boosting move Belly Drum,[24] but it was crippled by the fourth generation's entry hazard Stealth Rock, which removed half of its health upon entering the battle while active.[24][25] The sixth generation's Mega Charizard X and Mega Charizard Y forms again had a major impact on Charizard's competitive status, transforming it into a "top-level threat" of Smogon's standard tier.[25] With the release of Generation VIII and Pokémon Sword and Shield in 2019, Charizard gained more popularity with the new item "Heavy-Duty Boots", which negated the effects of Stealth Rock, its previously mentioned major issue.[26]

Appearances

In video games

Charizard made its

Red, who acts as the games' final boss.[30] Charizard is one of several Pokémon in Pokémon X and Y that is able to use the new Mega Evolution mechanic, becoming either Mega Charizard X or Mega Charizard Y.[31] It was given a Mega Evolution about one and a half years into the development of Pokémon X and Y. Charmander (along with Bulbasaur and Squirtle) was added to the game in a significant role in order to allow players to experience Charizard's Mega Evolution.[32]

Charizard has made appearances in many other Pokémon games. It appears in

boss Pokémon who becomes attached to the player's character and assists him or her throughout the game.[34] Charizard returns in Pokémon Ranger: Guardian Signs as another boss character, and Pokémon Rumble.[35]

Charizard has appeared many times throughout the

Ivysaur, all three of which can be switched between; unlike the other fighters, these Pokémon become fatigued and consequently weaker, and must be switched out long enough in order to recover. Charizard's moves include Rock Smash, Flamethrower, and Fly.[36] Charizard is playable as a standalone character in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U, where it gains the move Flare Blitz and its new Final Smash is transforming into Mega Charizard X.[37] Charizard returns in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, where it is once again under the command of the Pokémon Trainer alongside Squirtle and Ivysaur.[38] Charizard also appears as a playable fighter in Pokkén Tournament[39] and Pokémon Unite.[40]

In anime

In the

Blaine.[44] Charizard's disobedience to Ash cost him the Indigo League because Charizard chose to sleep instead of fighting.[45]

Charizard became loyal during the

Poliwrath and Charizard was frozen solid. Because Ash helped Charizard thaw out, he began to obey Ash and defeated the Poliwrath in a rematch.[46] He remained on Ash's team and contributed to his wins in the Orange League[47] and parts of Johto. He eventually stayed behind in the Charizific Valley, a reserve where wild Charizard battle and train to become stronger. This was likely due to meeting Charla, a female Charizard for whom he developed a fondness.[48]

Charizard, like some of Ash's other Pokémon, returns on a temporary basis to battle at Ash's side, typically when Ash faces a particularly powerful Pokémon.

Articuno at the Battle Factory and won thanks to an unorthodox strategy.[29][50]

During the

Best Wishes series, Charizard officially rejoined Ash's team (replacing Ash's Unfezant, who was sent to Professor Oak's Lab in the process), while Ash was exploring Unova. Upon meeting Ash again, he gave his trainer a Flamethrower to the face much to everyone's surprise. Charizard also developed a fierce rivalry with Iris's Dragonite so much so that both Ash and Iris agreed to have a battle. During the battle which originally began on the ground but later ascended skywards when both Pokémon took to the skies, it was shown that Charizard had learnt Wing Attack, Slash, and Dragon Tail but despite the two Pokémon having something of a very fierce rivalry with one another, N immediately called the battle off after realizing that Dragonite had injured its right arm. Charizard stayed with all of Ash's Pokémon sans Pikachu at Professor Oak's laboratory when Ash leaves Kanto once more for the faraway Kalos region.[51]

In printed adaptations

In

Orange Islands and trains it diligently since the near-disaster. He then uses it to battle Dragonite in the final showdown with the Orange Crew Supreme gym leader Drake.[53]

In the

Sabrina's monster Pokémon. They end Team Rocket's control of Saffron City, splitting apart the three birds in the process.[56]

Blue's Charizard re-appeared during the final match of the ninth

Sevii Islands, battling the main computer of the building and the Deoxys Divides. After struggling to co-ordinate Blasty, Saur, and Charizard, the three trainers manage to focus the angle of the three powerful attacks – Blast Burn, Hydro Cannon, and Frenzy Plant – to free Mewtwo, who in turn destroys the Trainer Tower.[58]

Charizard appeared as the main Pokémon in the short novel, Charizard Go! Adapted by Tracey West, the novelization retells Ash's journey with his Charmander, and it reaches its climax as Ash and Charizard battle in the Pokémon League at the Indigo Plateau against his good friend

Cyndaquil, his new fire Pokémon.[60]

Reception

Charizard has been featured in lines of soft toys and action figures in the Pokémon franchise, made by

web searches".[65] David Caballero of Screen Rant listed Charizard as the best Ash Ketchum's Pokémon from each region.[66] Kevin Slackie of Paste listed Charizard as fourth of the best Pokémon, and further stated that Charizard may seem like a giant scary dragon, but for many people this was the first Pokémon they ever fell in love with.[67] Dale Bishir of IGN described Charizard as the most important Pokémon that impacted the franchise's history, and further stated that Charizard has fared well in the past 25 years, having appearances in the anime, playable appearances in three different Smash games, and even having all kinds of forms, from Gigantamax to Mega Evolution.[68] Steven Bogos of The Escapist listed Charizard as second of their favorite Pokémon, describing it as "awesome across all of the franchise's properties".[69]

Described by the media as "a lean, ferocious, fire-breathing dragon ... sleek, powerful, and utterly destructive", Charizard has been noted as one of the franchise's "most popular" characters.

psychiatrists utilized the character as an empowered character traumatized children who were fans of the Pokémon series could relate to.[74] The book Pikachu's Global Adventure: The Rise and Fall of Pokémon cited Charizard as "popular" with older male children who tend to be drawn to "tough or scary" characters,[75] and compared the character's evolution from Charmander into Charizard with the loss of "cuteness" as one leaves childhood.[76]

Blastoise.[82] Charizard was ranked 19th in Complex's "The 50 Best Pokemon Up to Pokemon Crystal", with Elijah Watson saying that Charizard is one of the best out there.[83] IGN readers voted Charizard as one of the best pocket monster, receiving 86.3% of win percentage.[84]

Authors Tracey West and Katherine Noll called Charizard the "best Fire type Pokémon" and the "third best Pokémon overall". They wrote that "there was nothing else that could better fit that spot" and that "it has won [their] hearts and had [them] cheering for more."

dragon-type.[90] Game Informer ranked Charizard as the "coolest Pokémon out of the original 151", describing it as "Powerful, gigantic, and imposing". They further commented that "Pikachu may be the one you recognize, but Charizard is the one you want."[91] Laura Gray of Screen Rant stated that Charizard was too overrated in the franchise, and has created problems from fans as the popularity also prevents other Pokémon from having a chance at the spotlight.[92]

Charizard has always been a popular character amongst Pokémon card collectors. According to eBay, Charizard's Pokémon card is the one that is sold mostly, especially when a 1999 base 1st-edition holographic shadowless stamp of Charizard was sold for $350,100.[93] In October 2020, popular YouTuber and influencer Logan Paul purchased a base set Charizard card for $150,000.[94] Later in December 2020, another base set Charizard card sold for a record $369,000.[95]

A Charizard statue trying to represent the Pokémon in its real size was installed in May, 2018 on the municipality of Suzano, located in São Paulo in Brazil, presumably as a way to celebrate an event occurring in the game Pokémon Go.[96] This was the third Pokémon-related statue to be introduced at the site, after statues of Bulbasaur and Mew were placed before.[97] Since its installation, the statue has undergone maintenance, even receiving a mask temporarily during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020.[98][99]
