Charmander originally belonged to a braggart Trainer named [[Damian]]. However, in ''[[EP011|Charmander - the Stray Pokémon!]]'', Damian grew tired of Charmander being weak and abandoned it, leaving it on a rocky outcrop and telling it that he would come back later. Charmander's health deteriorated, but it was able to resist capture by {{Ash}} twice before explaining to {{AP|Pikachu}} that it was waiting for Damian. Later, Ash met Damian and learned of his plans that he would never return for it. Outraged but mostly concerned for Charmander, who was now stuck out in the rain loyally awaiting Damian, {{an|Brock}}, Ash and {{an|Misty}} rushed to its rescue, with Brock carrying it to the Pokémon Centre whilst Ash sheltered the little remaining tail flame with his coat. | Charmander originally belonged to a braggart Trainer named [[Damian]].

Charmander recovered in ER and promptly left the Pokémon centre to resume its wait for Damian. However, it came across [[Team Rocket trio|Team Rocket]], who had stolen Pikachu. Charmander ordered them to return Pikachu, and when they ignored it, blasted them with {{m|Flamethrower}} to send them blasting off. Ash invited Charmander to join them, but Damian turned up and said that he had abandoned Charmander on purpose in order to allow it to toughen up. Charmander, having seen Damian's character, staunchly refused and when Damian threatened to crush it with all of his other Pokémon, attacked Damian alongside Pikachu. Charmander then happily joined Ash's team. | Charmander recovered in ER and promptly left the Pokémon centre to resume its wait for Damian.

Charizard's disloyalty cost Ash greatly in the battle against [[Ritchie]] in ''[[EP079|Friend and Foe Alike]]''. Down to one Pokémon, Ash called Charizard into battle against [[Zippo]], and surprisingly decided to battle and force Zippo to flee from a far superior Flamethrower, causing Ritchie to concede the round. However, when [[Sparky]] came out, Charizard condescendingly stomped the ground and flapped his wings against the little Pikachu, before going to sleep, refusing to battle. Ash lost the round and Ritchie advanced onto the next round. | Charizard's disloyalty cost Ash greatly in the battle against [[Ritchie]] in ''[[EP079|Friend and Foe Alike]]''.

In {{M01|Mewtwo Strikes Back}}, Charizard played a significant role. It blatantly refused to listen to Ash, but took up the battle against {{an|Mewtwo}}'s cloned Charizard. It lasted longer than Bruteroot or Shellshocker had, but was ultimately defeated by being slammed into the ground. It was captured in a Clone Ball, much to Ash's anguish. Ash then helped to release Charizard and the others, and it ran back to continue fighting its clone. When Ash was petrified by Mewtwo and {{an|Mew}}, Charizard wept for its fallen master's sacrifice, its tears helping to regenerate him. Once things were back to normal, Charizard's memory was erased and it went back to its blatant disobedience. | |||
