Blaziken (Japanese: バシャーモ Bursyamo) is a dual-type Fire/Fighting Pokémon.
It evolves from Combusken starting at level 36. It is the final form of Torchic.
Biology
Physiology
Blaziken is mostly red in coloration, with accentuations of beige, yellow, and gray. Blaziken appears to have long, beige-colored, hairlike feathers extending behind its head, continuing downward to envelop some of its chest and abdomen. Blaziken’s small, red-colored face is almost completely covered in feathers. It has a crest on its head with two points, which resembles the letter "V". Blaziken has three spiky extensions on the sides of its face. Blaziken’s eyes are semicircular in shape, with yellow scleras and blue irises, and Blaziken's mouth is a hooked beak. The continuation of the "hair" from its head on its chest and abdomen makes Blaziken appear as if it's wearing a sleeveless jacket on its torso. Blaziken’s strong, muscular legs give it immense lower body strength, helping its kicking and jumping abilities. Blaziken has three fingers on each hand, resembling that of a normal chicken’s feet, with what appears to be gray-colored wristband-like markings on its wrists. Blaziken has, although rarely seen due to the shaggy feathers on the bottom of its legs, three clawed toes. Blaziken has a tuft of fire above its wrist and in combat with another Pokémon, it burns intensely as it becomes weary or stronger.
Gender differences
A female has shorter "hair" than a male. The V-shape on a female's "mask" is also smaller.
Special abilities
It can leap over a skyscraper with a single jump. It can make flames spout from its wrists and ankles, cloaking its feet or fists, and practices a form of martial art with these abilities. The stronger the foe it faces, the more intensely its flames burn. It may also launch a fiery kick at the opponent.
Behavior
It learns martial arts that use punches and kicks. Every several years, its old feathers burn off, and new, supple feathers grow back in their place.

Sapphire owned a Combusken that evolved to Blaziken in Vs. Altaria when she met up with Winona. Although it was unable to win her the battle even with its increased power, subsequent training allowed it to earn her the Badge and back Archie and Maxie's Pokémon into a corner twice, the second time utilizing its newly learned Sky Uppercut in conjunction with Zuzu's Muddy Water.
In the Emerald arc, it was again seen in Sapphire's team being used to fight her way into the top floor of the Battle Tower and soon learned the ultimate attack Blast Burn.

Trivia
- Blaziken is the lightest final form of a starter Pokémon, weighing 114.6 pounds (52.0 kilograms).
- Blaziken is the third Generation III Pokémon to appear in anime episodes (the first was Kecleon; the second, Wynaut) and one of the very few Generation III Pokémon to appear before the first episode of Advanced Generation series. It is also the only starter Pokémon from the main series to appear in the anime before its generation saga began.
- Blaziken can learn Brave Bird despite not being a Flying-type, due to being based on a chicken.
- Despite being based on a bird, because of its type, Blaziken is weak against Flying moves. It shares this trait with its pre-evolved form Combusken.
- A pre-alpha sketch depicts an unused Pokémon with the traits of both a Blaziken and a Latias.
- Blaziken is the only fully evolved Hoenn starter to appear in PokéPark Wii: Pikachu's Adventure.
- Blaziken is the only fully evolved Fire-type starter Pokémon not to have a flame on its body or head.
- However, it can release flames from its wrists.
Origin
Blaziken is probably based on a cockfighting chicken, specifically the Japanese shamo breed, known for its upright posture and having a mane on the nape of its neck. It bears resemblance to Horus and Ra, two Ancient Egyptian deities with hawk faces. Blaziken may also be based on the basan, a fire-breathing chicken, or possibly the Karura. It is somewhat based on the Phoenix, a mythical bird of fire.
Name origin
Blaziken is a combination of blaze and chicken.
Bursyamo may be a combination of burst or burn and 軍鶏 shamo, a breed of Japanese chicken once raised for fighting.
