Charizard is a pretty cool Pokémon, but massive favouritism toward KANTOOOOO and this "dragon" is putting a lot of players off lately.

It is also made fun of for how it is not part Dragon-type, while a palm tree, a blob and even an apple can be Dragon-types. I am aware Dragon-types are generally not given naturally to Starters because of how the type resists the traditional starting types of Fire, Water and Grass unless it is through a Mega Evolution.

This Pokémon can demolish a lot of opponents in Gen I because of how Slash works with the Speed stat. It is recommended if you want to have a hard walkthrough.

It works best if it has it's Mega Evolutions, as Gigantamaxing can only bring it so far, because normal Dynamaxing is generally superior, though both are banned from Smogon because of their busted side-effects.

Overall, I still admire this Pokémon, despite how overrated it is.

Out of all the Kanto starters (with the exception of Bulbasaur), Charizard is truly the only one that I love. The blatant favouritism toward it is a pain, however, I still love this fire-breathing dragon.

I didn't use to like Charizard for some reason! Lately I've been starting to like it more though. I think it really bothered me that it wasn't dragon typing... Like what's up with that?? Lol!
