Charmander originally belonged to [[Professor Oak]] as a potential starter for new Trainers, along with {{p|Bulbasaur}} and {{p|Squirtle}}. In [[PO01|File 1: Red]], Red picked it as his because it fit his name and his burning desire to be a {{pkmn|Trainer}}. Its first {{pkmn|battle}} was against a {{pkmn2|wild}} {{p|Pidgey}}, which escaped. Charmander was then used in Red's first battle against {{OBP|Blue|Origins}}'s {{p|Squirtle}}. Due to Red's inexperience and Squirtle's type advantage, Charmander was easily defeated. | Charmander originally belonged to [[Professor Oak]] as a potential starter for new Trainers, along with {{p|Bulbasaur}} and {{p|Squirtle}}. | ||
