Alain's Charizard: Difference between revisions

Charizard made another appearance in ''[[XY125|A League of His Own!]]'', where it was used to battle [[Trevor's Charizard]] in the first round of the Lumiose Conference. {{an|Trevor}}'s Charizard opened with {{m|Fire Spin}}, which Alain's dodged by flying in the sky, retaliating with Flamethrower. Trevor's Charizard, however, blocked the attack with Dragon Claw. {{an|Trevor}} then revealed his [[Key Stone]] and Mega Evolved his Charizard into Mega Charizard Y. Upon Mega Evolving, Mega Charizard Y's {{a|Drought}} Ability activated, creating [[harsh sunlight]] and powering up all of its {{type|Fire}} moves. Alain's Charizard, however, was still able to block and dodge its opponent's attacks, creating a water shield by slamming its tail into the nearby stream to block an incoming {{m|Heat Wave}} and then flew up to dodge a {{m|Dragon Tail}}. It then Mega Evolved as well and countered a Fire Spin with Flamethrower, creating a cloud of smoke. Trevor had his Charizard fly into the sky, but Alain's was able to spot it through the smoke and defeated it with a single hit from Flamethrower. Charizard then proceeded to easily defeat Trevor's {{p|Aerodactyl}} and {{p|Florges}} as well, giving Alain the win and allowing him to advance to the next round.

In [[XY130]], Charizard was Alain's final Pokémon during their final battle with Ash at the Conference. It battled Pikachu, enduring both his {{m|Quick Attack}} and even a super-effective {{m|Thunderbolt}}. [[XY131|Continuing their battle]], Charizard was hit once again by a Thunderbolt, but managed to hit Pikachu with Flamethrower when the Mouse Pokémon was too exhausted to use another Quick Attack. Another Flamethrower was blocked by a shield of dirt created by Pikachu's {{m|Iron Tail}}. Charizard and Pikachu then clashed with Dragon Claw and Iron Tail, but the former was able to overpower the latter, knocking him out. Charizard was recalled when Ash sent out his {{AP|Goodra}}.
