I like to think the Chimchar line resembles Sun Wu Kong more, but Goku is more popular these days. I could be completely wrong though but I see fighting monkey with fire and think Sun Wu Kong.
I recall reading one of those pokemon books hyping up the Sinnoh catalogue and it said something about Chimchar's tail going out whenever it falls asleep.
