Ash's Charizard: Difference between revisions

===Kanto Battle Frontier===

In ''[[AG136|The Symbol Life]]'', it returned for Ash's first {{Gdis|Battle Frontier|III}} battle, where it took on [[Noland's Articuno]] at the {{DL|Battle Frontier (Generation III)|Battle Factory}}. Ash and Charizard flew together, where Charizard demonstrated a far improved {{m|Flamethrower}} and that it had learned {{m|DragonBreath}}. In battle it showed that it was a match even for the legendary Pokémon, using Flamethrower to burn through {{m|Ice Beam}} and strike Articuno. However, Articuno did not take damage from Flamethrower or DragonBreath, flattening Charizard by blinding it with {{m|Mist}} and then knocking it to the ground with {{m|Steel Wing}}. Articuno then inflicted serious damage with {{m|Water Pulse}} and froze Charizard's wing tip, crippling its movements. Finally, Charizard used {{m|Overheat}}, which it had just learned, to melt the ice, then it caught Articuno as it tried to use {{m|Steel Wing}}; before striking with a Seismic Toss. Charizard collapsed, but managed to get up just as Articuno passed out, giving Ash and Charizard the victory.

===Unova===

In [[BW116]], Ash and his friends visited a Kanto-based festival, where one of the presentations featured the local [[starter Pokémon]], involving a live action show with a Charmander. This made Ash remember his own Charmander, prompting him to tell the story how he got his Charmander, and how it eventually became Charizard and won many battles with him, eventually leaving for training. Interested by the idea of seeing his old friend again, Ash called Professor Oak, who, in exchange for [[Ash's Unfezant]], sent Charizard over to him. While being introduced to all of the gang's new Pokémon, Charizard almost immediately started a fiery rivalry with [[Iris's Dragonite]], encouraging Ash and {{an|Iris}} to have a battle with their Pokémon. During the battle, Charizard was shown to have learned {{m|Wing Attack}}, {{m|Slash}}, and {{m|Dragon Tail}}. After a while, the battle was called off by {{an|N}}. Ash then also corrected Iris's misconception that Charizard would be a {{type|Dragon}}, saying that it is actually {{2t|Fire|Flying}}, much to Iris's shocking surprise.
