'''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]].

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.
