'''Charizard''' is a Fire/Flying-type [[Pokémon]]. It appears in ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' as a [[Poké Ball]] Pokémon, and in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' as a playable character. In the ''Pokémon'' series, it evolves from [[bulbapedia:Charmeleon (Pokémon)|Charmeleon]], which evolves from [[bulbapedia:Charmander (Pokémon)|Charmander]]. Charizard [[bulbapedia:Mega Evolution|Mega Evolves]] into Mega Charizard X or Mega Charizard Y.
 
==History==
===''Super Smash Bros.''===
[[File:Charizardssb.PNG|thumb|left|Charizard in ''Super Smash Bros.''.]]
{{main|SmashWiki:Charizard}}
It can come out of a Poké Ball, spitting fire to either side of it, burning the characters.
 
===''Super Smash Bros. Melee''===
[[File:Charizard.PNG|thumb|right|Charizard as it appears in ''Super Smash Bros. Melee''.]]
It can come out of a Poké Ball and retains its attack method from ''Super Smash Bros.''
 
===''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''===
{{main|SmashWiki:Charizard (SSBB)}}
Charizard appears as one of the Pokémon used by the [[Pokémon Trainer]], who remains in the background of a stage while Charizard fights. The Pokémon Trainer uses [[Squirtle]] and [[Ivysaur]] in addition to Charizard, and when [[Pokémon Change]] is used while Ivysaur is out, Charizard replaces Ivysaur in battle. If the move is used again, Squirtle replaces Charizard. Charizard, the heaviest of the three Pokémon, is the only one able to [[Gliding|glide]].
 
In the [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl#Subspace Emissary|Subspace Emissary]], Charizard is the last Pokémon that the Pokémon Trainer collects. [[Lucas]] and the trainer first see Charizard flying into a mountain, and Pokémon Trainer points out to Lucas that it is the third Pokémon he must collect. After traveling through the mountain, Pokémon Trainer and Lucas find Charizard, who attacks them. The two battle the large Pokémon, which is turned into a [[trophy]] upon its defeat. The trainer collects the trophy, and Charizard joins the party.
 
===''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U''===

Charizard has been confirmed to return as a playable character in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U]]''. However, in this game, it will return as a standalone fighter rather than being one of the [[Pokémon Trainer]]'s Pokémon due to the elimination of in-battle transformation moves. One of Charizard's [[bulbapedia:Mega Evolution|Mega Evolution]]s, Mega Charizard X, has also been confirmed to be appearing as its [[Final Smash]] move.<ref>https://miiverse.nintendo.net/posts/AYMHAAACAABnUYnxSKLtow</ref>

==Special Moves==
===Flamethrower===
[[File:Flamethrower.jpg|200px|thumb|right|'''Flamethrower''' being used by Charizard.]]
{{main|SmashWiki:Flamethrower}}
'''Flamethrower''' has been Charizard's attack since ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'' In the first two games, ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', Charizard uses Flamethrower when released from the Poké Ball, damaging any characters who touched it (except for the one who released Charizard). In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', it is Charizard's standard Special Move. When used, Charizard will shoot fire in the direction it is facing, similar to [[Bowser]]'s [[Fire Breath]], though Charizard's attack has greater range and deals more damage. [[Kirby]] can use this move after [[Kirby#Inhale|copying]] Charizard's powers.
 
===Rock Smash===
[[File:Rock Smash.jpg|200px|thumb|left|Charizard's '''Rock Smash'''.]]
{{main|SmashWiki:Rock Smash}}
'''Rock Smash''' is Charizard's Side [[Special Move|special move]]. When used, Charizard will pull out a large rock and smash it with its head, devastating any players hit by the "exploding" rock. The attack is based on the actual [[Pokémon]] attack called Rock Smash. It is a close range attack.
 
===Fly===
[[File:FlyCharizard.jpg|200px|right|thumb|'''Fly''' in action.]]
{{main|SmashWiki:Fly}}
'''Fly''' is the Up special move of Charizard. All that happens is that every time the attack code is pressed, Charizard flaps its wings once to fly upwards. It is also engulfed in fire to launch and burn foes above it. This is not often used, as Charizard's three jumps and gliding ability are usually able to help it recover from being knocked off of or away from the stage. Like the [[Super Dedede Jump]], it has little horizontal distance. Charizard will be put into a helpless state after if he finishes the move in the air.
 
===Pokémon Change===
[[File:Charizard returning.jpg|left|thumb|200px|'''Pokémon Change''' in action.]]
{{main|SmashWiki:Pokémon Change}}
Switching out Charizard when using '''Pokémon Change''' will summon Squirtle.
 
===Fire Blast===
{{main|Pokémon Trainer#Triple Finish}}
{{main|SmashWiki:Triple Finish}}
In the move Triple Finish, Charizard continually blasts the foe with '''[[bulbapedia:Fire Blast (move)|Fire Blast]]'''. This attack is the finisher of the Final Smash; the other two rack up damage.

Not only can it fly at heights of over 4,500 feet, but its flaming breath is hot enough to reduce almost anything to ashes in seconds. The flames at the end of a Charizard's tail are said to be a fairly accurate barometer of its power.''

==Trivia==
*Charizard's Japanese name, Lizardon, is also the name of a [[Lizardon|character]] from the game, ''[[Wario's Woods]]''.
*Charizard's name is a combination of the words char (meaning burnt) and lizard (since it's a lizard-like creature).
*If Charizard's tail is ever submerged under the water in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'', or if it is raining, its flame will not go out.
**If Charizard jumps into the water, it will start groaning as if it is in pain.
