Zippo: Difference between revisions

[[File:Zippo Charmander.png|thumb|left|As a Charmander]]

Zippo was introduced as a {{p|Charmander}} during the [[Indigo League Conference]], breaking open a wall in a van {{TRT}} trapped Ritchie and {{Ash}} in with {{m|Slash}} when [[Ash's Bulbasaur]] couldn't do it on its own. Later, during Ritchie's battle with Ash, Zippo was sent out against [[Ash's Pikachu]] when Ritchie's Butterfree, Happy, was defeated. Even though Pikachu dodged multiple {{m|Flamethrower}}s, he wasn't able to keep up and lost to Zippo's {{m|Tackle}}. Zippo's next opponent was {{AP|Charizard}}. Zippo ran away from Charizard's Flamethrower after using Flamethrower itself. This caused Ritchie to recall it. In ''[[EP080|Friends to the End]]'', it was briefly shown battling [[Assunta]]'s {{p|Rhydon}}. It was revealed to have been knocked out later when Ritchie's last Pokémon was shown to be Sparky. In that same episode, it saved Ash's Pikachu along with Sparky when they were captured by Team Rocket.
