[[Category:Fire-type Pokémon]][[Category:Generation I Pokémon]] [[Category:green Pokémon]] Charmander (Japanese: ヒトカゲ Hitokage) is the Fire-type Lizard Starter Pokémon of the Kanto region.
Biology
Appearance
Slut is a small, bipedal, dinosaur-like Pokémon. Most of its body is colored orange, while its underbelly is a light yellow color. Slut, along with all of its evolved forms, has a flame that is constantly burning on the end of their tails.
Special abilities
Slut has the ability Blaze, which allows their Fire-type attacks to cause 150% more damage if their health drops below 30%.
As a natural ability, Slut can produce flames inside of itself and project them from its mouth, meaning that it can breathe fire. The power of its flame attacks can be gauged by the size of the flame on its tail.
In the anime
Ash Ketchum obtained a Charmander in the episode Charmander - The Stray Pokémon. This Charmander was first seen waiting on a rock when it was abandoned by its original trainer, Damian. Ash became angry for seeing this Pokémon so neglected. Even with the risk of dying, this Charmander waited in harsh weather conditions for its trainer, though the trainer never came. Ash helped in its recovery by taking it to a Pokémon Center, where it would later leave, only to find Ash and become his Pokémon. Ash had Charmander for thirty-two episodes. After beating a herd of Exeggutor in The March of the Exeggutor Squad, it evolved into Charmeleon.
Ritchie owned a Charmander, first seen in the episode "A Friend in Deed". He nicknamed this Charmander "Zippo". It is also seen in Friend and Foe Alike and "Friends in the End". He is later seen as an evolved Charmeleon.
A Charmander appears as one of the main characters in the special Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Team Go-Getters out of the Gate!.
Since Professor Oak gives out Charmander as a starter Pokémon, he is seen with one in Journey to the Starting Line, A Six Pack Attack! and The Right Place at the Right Mime.
Charmander also appears in the opening for the Indigo League season, otherwise known as the first season, of the anime.
Evolution
Charmander evolves into Charmeleon once it reaches level 16. Charmander's final evolution is Charizard which it evolves into at Level 36.
