{{p|Charizard}} is [[Leon]]'s main partner Pokémon in the games. It took part in the [[Galar League|Gym Challenge]] alongside Leon when he was ten years old, and they claimed victory in the Champion Cup on their first attempt. Since that victory, Leon and Charizard remained unbeaten in both League and exhibition matches until they were defeated by the {{player}} during the events of {{g|Sword and Shield}}. Charizard can be first seen during the game's introductory cutscene with Leon, having an exhibition match against [[Raihan]] and his {{p|Duraludon}}. The player first meets Chairzard in person in [[Wedgehurst]] with his {{pkmn|Trainer}}. Throughout the game, Charizard is commonly seen alongside Leon outside of battle. Due to Leon's poor sense of direction, he often gets lost, and having to rely on Charizard to lead him to his destination.

During preparations for the [[Full Battle]] between Leon and Ash in ''[[JN129|A Flood of Torrential Gains!]]'', Charizard and [[Hop]] stayed with Leon in the locker room. Leon reminisced about his past as a child and the emotions he felt when battling with {{p|Charmander}}. In ''[[JN131|Paring Pokémon While Parrying!]]'', Charizard was the sixth Pokémon Leon used in the battle, where it faced Ash's Pikachu. During the battle, Leon immediately Gigantamaxed Charizard, which caused Charizard to start gaining the upper hand in the battle. After Charizard's G-Max Wildfire clashed with Pikachu's {{m|10,000,000 Volt Thunderbolt}}, cancelling out both moves while Charizard returned to its normal size and form, {{TP|Leon|Eternatus}} ended up reawakening and appearing at [[Wyndon Stadium]].

In ''[[JN132|Partners in Time!]]'', Charizard was recalled in favor of {{p|Cinderace}}, which Leon Gigantamaxed; however, Charizard returned to the match after Cinderace was defeated by Pikachu. Initially gaining the upper hand in battle, Charizard and Pikachu found themselves at their limits when Leon commanded Charizard to merge with its own moves, thus gaining a power overload. After a violent exchange of blows between Pikachu and Charizard, it seemed that Charizard had finally managed to defeat his opponent, but Pikachu woke up with more force and both Pokémon decided to define the last blow with all or nothing. With both Pokémon at their limit, Charizard was finally defeated after both collided with each other.

Charizard is very close with Leon, as seen when it gave its {{pkmn|Trainer}} a high five after their victory over Lance. Charizard has been shown to share many of its Trainer's personality traits, as seen in ''[[JN100|Meeting Up with the Monarch!]]'', where Charizard was having fun during flight training with Leon and Ash. In addition, Leon has a car modeled after Charizard.

In addition, Leon has a car modeled after Charizard.


As Leon's starter Pokémon, Charizard has been with him since the beginning of his {{pkmn|journey}} and was present at different times in his Trainer's life. Leon often uses Charizard as a means of transport to get around between places. According to Leon in ''[[JN127|Just a Scone's Throw From Here!]]'', he relies on Charizard to help him with his his poor sense of direction.

Charizard is also protective of other Pokémon, as seen in ''[[JN045|Sword and Shield... The Legends Awaken!]]'', when it shielded [[Ash's Lucario]] and [[Goh's Cinderace]] from {{p|Eternatus}}, resulting in it taking damage.
