Charmander

Charmander (ヒトカゲ) is a -type Pokémon. It evolves into a Charmeleon starting at level 16. It is one of the three Starter Pokémon that can be chosen in the Kanto region.

Anatomy
Charmander is a small, bipedal, dinosaur-like Pokémon. Most of its body is colored orange, while its underbelly is a light-yellow color. Charmander, like its evolved forms, has a flame that constantly burns on the end of its tail.

Characteristics
The power of its flame attacks can be gauged by the size of the flame on its tail.

Behavior
Charmander is easily the most mild-mannered and well-behaved of its evolution line. Its feelings and emotions can be read by the flame on the tip of its tail. It flares up in a fury when Charmander is angry. If it growls that means it's angry or it is about to attack.

Habitat
Charmander is rarely found in the wild since it's a Starter Pokémon. Sometimes they gather in extremely hot areas such as active volcanoes or in craggy mountains and in caves along the coast of the Sevii Islands.
