Appearances

Anime

Ash's Infernape.

Infernape first made an appearance in the Pokémon movie The Rise of Darkrai. Ash's Monferno evolved into an Infernape in Fighting Ire With Fire! of the Pokémon Diamond and Pearl anime.

Manga

In the Pokémon Adventures Manga, Pearl owns an Infernape, named Chimler.

Trivia

  • Infernape shares the same species as Charmeleon, Charizard, Flareon and Moltres, known as Flame Pokémon.
  • Infernape, along with Chimchar and Monferno, are the first monkey-like Pokémon to be of a type, being primarily Fire Type, other than Fighting and Normal.
  • Infernape is the shortest of all the final form starter Pokémon, with 3 ft. 11 in.
  • Infernape is the only fully evolved Sinnoh Starter not to:
    • have a unique type combination, as Torterra is grass/Ground type, while Empoleon is a Water/steel type. It shares its type with Blaziken and Emboar.
    • It is also the only fully evolved Sinnoh starter not to be immune to Sandstorm, as Torterra is part ground, while Empoleon is part steel.
    • It is also the only fully evolved Sinnoh starter not to have an immunity, as Torterra is immune to electric attacks, while Empoleon is immune to poison attacks.
  • Despite it having the word "ape" in its name, it has a tail as to real apes do not.
  • Despite its HeartGold and SoulSilver entry implies, Infernape cannot learn Agility.

Origin

Infernape is based on a monkey, but also appears to be based on Son Gokū, which is evidenced by its Japanese name. Son Gokū is the Japanese interpretation of Sun Wukong, a monkey with magical abilities in the Chinese story "Journey to the West". Its pose in its 3D models and its fighting type may be based on Monkey Kung Fu, a fighting style based around monkey-like movements.

Etymology

Infernape comes from inferno and ape.

Its Japanese name Goukazaru (ゴウカザル) comes from Son Gokū (see Origin), saru (monkey), and goka (inferno).
