Overview

Charmeleon have been described as “vicious,” “barbaric,” and perhaps most fittingly, “hot-headed.” They can easily raise the surrounding ambient temperature to unbearable levels simply by swinging their tails around. Charmeleon attack by knocking their foes down with their blazing tails and slashing them mercilessly with their sharp claws, not ceasing until their enemies are thoroughly beaten. In their fervor, their tails often begin to burn a bluish-white; at night, they can light up mountainsides like stars if groups of them are present. Enraged Charmeleon often take out their anger on their surroundings, incinerating anything flammable around them with unrestrained Flamethrowers. This stage is often likened to a human’s teenage years--moody and reckless. For starting trainers, reining in disobedient Charmeleon can be extremely challenging, as well as potentially dangerous if not handled well. However, with proper care and treatment, a trainer can earn a Charmeleon’s respect, and eventually its obedience as well.
