'''Dawn's Quilava''' (Japanese: '''ヒカリのマグマラシ''' ''Hikari's Magmarashi'') is the seventh Pokémon obtained by {{an|Dawn}}.

[[File:Dawn Cyndaquil.png|thumb|250px|left|As a Cyndaquil]]

In ''[[DP143|An Egg Scramble!]]'', Dawn battled {{an|Lyra}} in the Johto Festival and defeated her. As a prize, Dawn was given an {{pkmn|egg}}, which was soon abducted by [[Team Rocket]]. While it was in Team Rocket's possession, it showed signs of hatching. When Dawn finally got it back, it hatched right in front of her eyes, revealing it to be a Cyndaquil.

It has a tendency to flare up its back when it's happy or when it's showing affection, which Dawn usually ends up getting caught in in the process.

[[Dawn's Piplup]] appears to be jealous over the attention that it gets, though this may be attributed to the fact that Cyndaquil wasn't very responsive to Piplup at first. Piplup often attacks it and it in turn fights back, causing frequent squabbles between the two. They seem to be trying to compete for superiority over the other. These fights have stopped in subsequent episodes.

In ''[[DP144|Gone With the Windworks!]]'', it battled [[Ash's Grotle]] and proved to be a strong opponent even though it had just hatched.

In'' [[DP146|Dressed for Jess Success!]]'', it showed its interest in Contests after watching Dawn practice with her {{TP|Dawn|Mamoswine}} by trying to mimic it with the flames on its back.

In ''[[DP147|Bagged Then Tagged!]]'', it was used in Dawn's and Ash's tag battle against {{an|Lyra}} and [[Khoury]]. It was able to defeat Chikorita with a Flame Wheel combined with [[Ash's Monferno]]'s Flamethrower.  

In ''[[DP155|Double-Time Battle Training!]]'', it was used in a double battle together with [[Dawn's Mamoswine]]. After using the "Flame-Ice" combo, it failed to execute it all of the way and [[Zoey]]'s {{p|Leafeon}} defeated it, along with Mamoswine with a {{m|Magical Leaf}} combined with {{p|Kirlia}}'s {{m|Psychic}}.  

Quilava, as a Cyndaquil, along with Mamoswine, were used in the [[Daybreak Town]] Contest Double Battle Round along with {{TP|Dawn|Mamoswine}} in [[DP162|Playing the Performance Encore!]]. Both of them managed to defeat [[Ursula]]'s {{p|Plusle}} and {{p|Minun}} in the finals earning Dawn her fifth and final ribbon.

In ''[[DP174|Last Call, First Round!]]'', it was used in the Appeal Round of the Sinnoh Grand Festival. Together with {{TP|Dawn|Buneary}}, they made an excellent combination that put Dawn through to the next round. Later in ''[[DP176|Coming Full Festival Circle!]]'' it battled [[Jessie]] in the semi-finals along with {{TP|Dawn|Buneary}} and got Dawn to the finals.

In [[SS024]], Cyndaquil helped Dawn rescue a {{p|Piplup}} and a {{p|Chimchar}} that had escaped from [[Professor Rowan]]'s lab from a group of {{p|Ariados}}. It became injured when one of them attacked it with {{m|Poison Sting}}. It was able to overcome its injury by [[evolution|evolving]] into {{p|Quilava}}. It was able to defeat the leader of the group, a {{pkmn2|shiny}} Ariados, with its newly learned {{m|Eruption}}.

* '''Flame Ice''' is a combination which was created by Mamoswine and Cyndaquil when they were training with Dawn in ''[[DP155|Double-Time Battle Training!]]''. It involves Cyndaquil being trapped by Mamoswine's Ice Shard while it uses Flame Wheel.

* Of all Pokémon eggs owned by main characters, Quilava took the least amount of time to hatch, hatching in the same episode it was obtained in.

* Like May's {{TP|May|Bulbasaur|Venusaur}}, Quilava is a [[starter Pokémon]] from the region alternate to her own in her generation that has a type disadvantage against her actual starter. Also, Ash owns Pokémon of the [[Ash's Cyndaquil|same]] [[Ash's Bulbasaur|species]] as May's and Dawn's second starter Pokémon.

* Similar to May getting her Bulbasaur, Dawn also got a starter Pokémon from the game region that was featured in the most recent game. In the original Japanese airings, May got Bulbasaur a few months after {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}'s release, while Dawn got Cyndaquil five days after the release of {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}.

* Quilava is the eighth Pokémon to follow the pattern of premiering in a movie and then being captured by one of the main characters. In all cases, the premiered Pokémon is not the same character as the one caught, just the same species. Dawn's Cyndaquil comes after ''[[M12|Arceus and the Jewel of Life]]''. This is only a technical premiere, as Cyndaquil was featured during the original Johto series as well.

* Quilava is the sixth {{cat|Generation II Pokémon}} to be part of the main cast during the {{series|Diamond & Pearl}}, however, unlike its predecessors {{TP|Dawn|Aipom|Ambipom}}, {{TP|Brock|Sudowoodo}}, {{AP|Gligar|Gliscor}}, {{TP|Jessie|Yanma|Yanmega}}, and {{TP|Dawn|Swinub/Piloswine|Mamoswine}}, it was introduced ''after'' HeartGold and SoulSilver were already known.

** Quilava is also the third of said Pokémon who were Dawn's at one point or another.

** Quilava is the only one of the said Pokémon which does not have a {{cat|Generation IV Pokémon}} in its evolutionary family.

* Similar to [[Ash's Quilava]], it had learned {{m|Eruption}} after its evolution.
