Charmander concept art

Concept art of Charmander.

Charmander is a bipedal, reptilian Pokémon with a primarily orange body and blue eyes. Its underside from the chest down and the soles of its feet are cream-colored. It has two small fangs visible in its upper jaw and two smaller fangs in its lower jaw. A fire burns at the tip of this Pokémon's slender tail and has blazed there since Charmander's birth. The flame can be used as an indication of Charmander's health and mood, burning brightly when the Pokémon is strong, weakly when it is exhausted, wavering when it is happy, and blazing when it is enraged. It is said that Charmander dies if its flame goes out. However, if the Pokémon is healthy, the flame will continue to burn even if it gets a bit wet and is said to steam in the rain.

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. The flame will flicker and grow small and dim If Charmander is sick or hurt. If it growls that means it's angry or is about to attack.

Charmander however doesn't do well with impatient people. It doesn't appreciate being rushed, and most of the time, will not allow it. It is a sweet Pokémon, but is feisty nonetheless. Charmander doesn't enjoy accepting favors, because it feels it owes something in return. It is extremely loyal to its loved ones, and knows a good thing when it sees it. It will treat those in its life accordingly.

Charmander is rarely found in the wild since it's a First partner 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.

Evolution[]

Charmander evolves into Charmeleon starting at level 16 and then evolves into Charizard starting at level 36.

Trivia[]

  • According to Ash's Pokédex (known as 'Dexter'), Charmander is known as the Salamander Pokémon.
  • Charmander is the tallest out of the fire-type First partner Pokémon.
  • According to many Pokédex entries, if the fire on Charmander's tail goes out, it will die.
  • Charmander is one of the 16 Pokémon to be made into a puppet in Japan.
  • Charmander is one of the collectable spirits in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.
  • In the official Butterfree vs Charmander artwork, which only appeared in the Japan-exclusive Jumbo Carddass card set [2], Charmander had spikes on its back, which was a detail that has gotten permanently removed since Generation II.

Origin[]

Charmander appears to be predominantly reptilian in origin, and may have been partially inspired by the mythical salamander (as opposed to the real-world amphibian of the same name which inspired its mythical counterpart). This salamander was a fire-spirit capable of surviving in extreme heat or flames, and it is sometimes creatively rendered or interpreted in the shape of a lizard.

Physically, Charmander has a slender body, a short nose, and a long tail, as well as other lizard-like characteristics. The fact that it does not undergo a metamorphosis stage (beyond its own evolutionary pattern) but instead grows into a larger version of itself as it matures indicates, among other things, that Charmander has more in common with reptiles (such as lizards) than with amphibians (such as real-world salamanders).

Etymology[]

Charmander is combination of 'char' (to burn) and 'salamander'.

Name in other languages[]

  • Japanese:ヒトカゲ (Hitokage in Romaji) from the Japanese words Hi (火) which means fire and Tokage (蜥蜴) which means lizard, when joined it is Hitokage (火蜥蜴) which literally means "fire lizard" or "fire salamander".
  • French: "Salamèche" is a combination of the words "salamandre" (salamander) and "mèche"(wick).
  • German: Glumanda
