Charizard resembles the {{wp|European dragon}}, certainly one of many forms told and rendered in legends. Charizard's prominence as a dragon without being of the {{t|Dragon}} type is further reinforced in the video game {{ga|Pokémon Ranger}}, where one makes a cameo as one of four prominently featured {{wp|classical element|patron elemental}} dragon Pokémon. The other three Pokémon sharing this distinguishing trait are legitimate Dragon-type Pokémon: {{p|Salamence}}, {{p|Kingdra}}, and {{p|Flygon}}. The patronage of these four dragons is inspired from the four {{wp|classical element}}s: {{wp|Air (classical element)|Air}}, {{wp|Water (classical element)|Water}}, {{wp|Earth (classical element)|Earth}}, and {{wp|Fire (classical element)|Fire}}, with Charizard being the representative of Fire. It shares some evolutionary traits with Charmeleon in its distinctive horns; also a distinct trait in some dragons. | Charizard resembles the {{wp|European dragon}}, certainly one of many forms told and rendered in legends.

Due to this reason, many players misunderstood Charizard is a Fire/Dragon dual-type Pokémon, implying at [[BW116]]. | ||
