Mega Charizard X is an All-Rounder that functions similarly to the regular Charizard, however it specializes only in the Fire Punch and Flare Blitz move set, as they are the only moves it can learn. When Charizard Mega Evolves, its basic attacks are greatly enhanced and its moves are also slightly enhanced. It is also forced to hold the Charizardite X as a held item.

As Mega Charizard X
Tough Claws
かたいツメ Tough Claws
Description

Gains a boost counter each time a move hits opposing Pokémon (maximum 3 counters). When a boost counter is consumed, the Pokémon's next basic attack becomes a boosted attack and is guaranteed to be a critical hit. When the Pokémon deals damage with a basic attack to opposing Pokémon that have been burned by its moves, HP is restored.

Basic Attack

Damage category: Physical (as a basic attack)
Damage category: Physical (as a boosted attack)
Description

Deals continual damage. Deals additional damage to opposing Pokémon that have been burned by the user's moves. Increases in range when the user evolves.

Effect: Charizard can move while using its basic attack. Charizard's basic attacks have a fixed attack speed and are thus not affected by moves, held items, battle items, or boost emblems that increase or decrease basic attack speed. Range is increased further when Mega Evolved.
