@Cosmotone- I'm also on the same boat. I used Charmander as my starter in Red, but I didn't even play it enough for it to evolve into Charizard. I completed FireRed with a Blastoise. And nowadays I always judge Pokemon based on their competitive performance, and Charizard doesn't really outshine others in that department. I actually feel sorry for the noobs who use Life Orb Solar Power Charizard in their sun teams in PO, only to have its health halved by Stealth Rocks and then get it walled by my Blissey, losing another 22.5% health. Then they switch out and bring their spinner while I predict it and switch to my set up sweeper and grab some boosts.

I used to do competitive battling. Now I dont. Connect the dots. XD

But I am going to try and use charizard now just for the fun of it. :)

Welcome to the club, ndm55! I'll give you an Infernape, but am I supposed to nickname it "love"? I didn't quite understand it from your post.

Along with the ones you mentioned; Volcarona, Victini and Darmanitan are also fabulous sweepers. Torkoal can also try its hand at sweeping in the lower tiers with Shell Smash.

And guys sorry for my recent inactivity. Real life just wouldn't give me time.

I'm new here! Didn't see the part about nicknames... I will try to think of something, flamerunner? If anyone has taken that (I'm using my dad's tablet so I can't see nicknames) then I'll use firefist

Flamerunner is not taken, and even if it was it wouldn't harm have common nicknames. I've added you to the list of members and named your Infernape Flamerunner.

Here is my answer to this week's question:

Spoiler:


Also most of the Fire type starters are good, but I'm not a big fan of Emboar. It's a fire/fighting that really isn't good.

Here is my favorite pokemon! I use him on my wifi team, and he looks really cool! Both shiny and normal look great. If I couldn't have had infernape I would've chosen typhlosion, my second fave fire type!

PS. I'm using the infernape theme for the site ;) lol

Sorry for the late update this week, guys. A warm welcome to ShortUsername, thanks for referring him ndm55! I've added 3 new topics, do check them out.

☼ *If one of Fire's 3 weaknesses were to be eliminated, which one should it be- Water, Ground or Rock?

Most people would say Water, but I'd say Rock. Water attacks are mostly used only by Water Pokemon, but Rock and Ground attacks are used by a variety of types. Ground can be eliminated with Flying or Levitate, so eliminating Rock weakness would be nice. Plus, no more 25% health reduction from Stealth Rocks!

☼ Water starts boiling in much, much less heat than Steel, Steel doesn't even melt if the temperature isn't really high. Then why is Fire super effective against Steel, but not very effective against Water?

I really have no answer to this, which is why I added this topic in the first place. I'd like to hear what everyone else thinks about this.

My answer to the question:
Spoiler:


☼ Water starts boiling in much, much less heat than Steel, Steel doesn't even melt if the temperature isn't really high. Then why is Fire super effective against Steel, but not very effective against Water?

Well, I think that it's because Water can easily put out flames whereas Steel can't really do that. The type is called "Fire" not "Heat". And that water won't evaporate quickly enough unless there's a small amount of water or a huge conflagration. As for the Steel, I have no idea because, as far as I've seen, Steel just gets red hot. Besides, this is Pokemon. They're not just in their elemental forms, they're solid. *Looks at Grimer* Well, usually they're solid. (Rushed for time so put a bunch of random stuff down in no particular order.)

Which Fire type Pokemon is the heaviest?

Spoiler:


How would you use your Fire Pokemon to pull a prank on someone?

I would use my quilava the heat up their shower water. When they turned it on it would be super hot!
