'''Charizard''' is a [[bulbapedia:Fire (type)|Fire]]/[[bulbapedia:Flying (type)|Flying]]-type [[Pokémon]] resembling a winged European dragon. In the ''Pokémon'' series, it evolves from [[bulbapedia:Charmeleon (Pokémon)|Charmeleon]], which evolves from [[bulbapedia:Charmander (Pokémon)|Charmander]], and is one of the three fully-evolved starter Pokémon of the [[bulbapedia:Kanto|Kanto]] region. As of [[bulbapedia:Generation VI|Generation VI]], Charizard is also capable of [[bulbapedia:Mega Evolution|Mega Evolving]] into Mega Charizard X or Mega Charizard Y, the former of which appears as its [[Final Smash]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]''. Charizard appears in ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' as a [[Poké Ball]] Pokémon, and in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'' / ''Wii U'', and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'' as a playable character. When playable, its fighting style is similar to [[Bowser]]'s, as a slow, powerful, heavy reptile with some fast movement options and the ability to [[Flamethrower (move)|breathe fire]].

{{main-external|SmashWiki|Charizard (SSBB)}}
Charizard appears as one of the Pokémon used by the [[Pokémon Trainer]] (alongside [[Squirtle]] and [[Ivysaur]]), who remains in the background of a stage while Charizard fights. Charizard is the heaviest of the three Pokémon, but is also the strongest and the fastest, though it walks the slowest. It is also capable of [[Glide|gliding]], one of three characters in the entire game with this ability. Like in the ''Pokémon'' games Charizard is also affected by an emulation of the series' [[bulbapedia:Type#Type effectiveness|type effectiveness]]; it takes more damage from water attacks but less from grass attacks. Charizard also has a limited stamina, which decreases as it is on the field but replenishes while it is not, but its attacks are weaker as its stamina decreases.
Charizard's standard special move is [[#Flamethrower|Flamethrower]], which involves Charizard breathing a continuous stream of fire. Its side special move is [[#Rock Smash|Rock Smash]], which has it break a rock with its head to damage opponents, and its up special is [[#Fly|Fly]], which has Charizard fly directly up into the air. When its down special [[Pokémon Trainer#Pokémon Change|Pokémon Change]] is used, Charizard is switched out with [[Squirtle]], and is switched in when used as [[Ivysaur]]. Its [[Final Smash]], shared amongst all three Pokémon, is [[Pokémon Trainer#Triple Finish|Triple Finish]], in which Charizard performs [[bulbapedia:Fire Blast (move)|Fire Blast]].

{{main-external|SmashWiki|Charizard (SSBU)}}
Charizard appears, along with [[Squirtle]] and [[Ivysaur]], as part of the [[Pokémon Trainer]]'s team in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''. Its moveset is similar to that seen in ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U'', with Rock Smash being replaced by Pokémon Change. Furthermore, its stamina mechanics are removed, allowing it to be used for the whole fight with no penalty. Just like in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'', its final Smash is Triple Finish and no longer has it Mega Evolving into its Mega Charizard X form. Its type effectiveness mechanic is also abolished, which removes Charizard's vulnerability to Water-type attacks (e.g., those that Squirtle uses), but, in exchange, eliminates its resistance to Grass-type attacks (e.g., those that Ivysaur uses).
Charizard benefits from the game's universal changes: its overall mobility is faster (in spite of having a slightly slower walking speed); its aerials have less landing lag; its short hop timing is shortened; it can directionally air dodge; and it can use any grounded attack out of a run

The first is '''[[bulbapedia:Blast Burn (move)|Blast Burn]]''', another move from the ''Pokémon'' series, which is slower and does not travel very far, but ends with a larger explosion that deals more damage, both to the opponent, and Charizard.
The second is '''[[bulbapedia:Dragon Rush (move)|Dragon Rush]]''', a [[bulbapedia:Dragon (type)|Dragon]]-type move from the ''Pokémon'' series, which is less powerful, has a shorter travel distance, and does not have the fire effects. To make up for those drawbacks, however, the attack delivers multiple hits to opponents, and it does not damage Charizard. Lastly, Charizard does not get knocked back if it hits anyone while using the attack, and its shorter travel distance reduces the risk of self-destruction, making the move more effective for recovery than the other Flare Blitz variations. Mega Charizard X can also perform this attack.
On a side note, whenever Flare Blitz activates a fighter's [[Counter]], the counterattack only takes into account the hit before the explosion.

Charizard appears as an unlockable [[Costume Mario|costume]] in ''[[Super Mario Maker]]''. It can be unlocked by scanning the Charizard [[amiibo]] onto the [[Wii U#Wii U GamePad|GamePad]], or at random by clearing the 100 Mario Challenge on Normal or a more difficult setting. The costume turns Mario into a sprite of Charizard based on the species' appearance in the Nintendo DS ''Pokémon'' games. While Mario's appearance changes with the costume, like with the other Pokémon costumes, the sound effects remain the default ''Super Mario Bros.'' sounds.

==Trivia==
*Charizard's name is a combination of the words char (meaning burnt) and lizard (since it's a lizard-like creature).
*Charizard's name in Japan, Lizardon, is the same name as [[Lizardon|a character in ''Wario's Woods'']]. Interestingly, ''Wario's Woods'' preceded the release of ''Pokémon Red and Green'' in Japan by a little over two years.
