Charmander originally belonged to [[Professor Oak]] as a potential starter for new Trainers, along with {{p|Bulbasaur}} and {{p|Squirtle}}.  
Charmander originally belonged to [[Professor Oak]] as a potential first partner Pokémon 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.

During Red's Gym battle against [[Brock]], Charmander was Red's initial choice, but when learning about the advantage that [[Brock's Geodude]] has on Fire-type Pokémon, it was soon recalled. However, it would still end up as Red's last healthy Pokémon against {{TP|Brock|Onix}}. Red and Charmander emerged victorious thanks to Red's strategy.

It was revealed in ''[[PO02| File 2: Cubone]]'' that Charmander evolved into {{p|Charmeleon}} some time after Red's Gym battle against [[Misty]]. In that same episode, Red used Charmeleon in Lavender Town to face the ghost who terrorized the inhabitants of the city, which was later to be revealed to be the spirit of a {{OBP|Marowak|ghost}} who was killed by members of [[Team Rocket]].

It was revealed in ''[[PO03|File 3: Giovanni]]'' that Red used Charmeleon again in his battle against [[Erika]], and it managed to get him his fourth Badge. After several battles, Charmeleon evolved into a Charizard. Red used Charizard in his first battle against [[Giovanni]] at [[Silph Co.]] Even though the Fire-type Pokémon tried its best, it was easily subdued by Giovanni's {{p|Nidoqueen}}. Charizard was used again in the final battle against Giovanni, where it faced Giovanni's {{p|Rhydon}}. After a hard battle, Charizard managed to win and Giovanni decided to change his attitude.
