Torchic

Torchic (アチャモ Achamo) is the -type Starter Pokémon in the Hoenn Region., which means that every player has a choice of this Pokémon or two other (either the -type Mudkip or the -type Treecko).

It evolves into Combusken at level 16 and then into Blaziken at level 36. A fire burns inside, so it is very warm to hug. It launches fireballs of 1,800 degrees Fahrenheit.

Appearance
Torchic is an orange and yellow colored chick with three large feathers on its head. It has a small beak and large eyes. Its feet have three toes and when you hug it, it feels like a warm waterbottle. It originally had floppy ears.

Origins
Torchic is a portmenteau of Torch and Chick.

Trivia

 * Torchic is thus far the only fire type starter that does not have fire on its body, though Blaziken does spout fire from its wrists.
