Chimchars is a chimpanzee. Being very agile, Chimchar are able to climb the rocky ledges of tall mountains, where they live. Their fiery rears are produced by burning gas in their stomachs. Chimchar also has a light colored stomach with a little swirl at the top on its chest. The swirl on Chimchar's chest carries over to its second and third evolutions. The flames do not go out in the rain like the flames on [[Charmander]]'s tails, Chimchar's butt flame goes out when they go to sleep. Chimchar is a chimpanzee, with a cry similar to a spider monkey's cry. Like regular chimpanzees, Chimchar are very mischievous and sometimes badly behaved, but can show courage at times. Chimchar are very rare and only make their nests in cliffsides and rocky mountains, because If they were to live in jungles, there would be forest fires everyday.

{{Main|Ash's Chimchar}}A Chimchar first appeared in the [[Pokémon]] anime series in "[[DP001: Following A Maiden's Voyage!|Following A Maiden's Voyage!]]". The little fire-monkey was teasing a [[Piplup]] (that is now under Dawn's ownership) after stealing food from it. [[Piplup]] then started to fire a bubble beam, but Chimchar kept dodging the attack. A [[Staraptor]] and a [[Starly]] that were part of Professor Rowan's evolution project, were hit by [[Piplup]]'s [[bubble]]s and created a whirlwind attack from their wings that wrecked everything in [[Professor Rowan]]'s lab. After these sudden events took place, Chimchar jumped out of a broken window, with Piplup; chasing after it.

Chimchar is often ill-treated by [[Paul]].Instead of encouraging him, Paul reprimanded him, making his life miserable (as he wants Chimchar to create the same power that scared away the Zangoose). [[Paul]] uses his strong [[Pokémon]] to train Chimchar; by using all his other [[Pokémon]]'s moves at the same time to attack Chimchar (however, he reveals that this is what Chimchar wanted). Chimchar suffered mental injuries because of this.

When[[Ash]]is enter a tag-team battle, his tag-partner is [[Paul]]. When Chimchar is faced off against a strong [[Zangoose]], [[Paul]] does not command Chimchar to use its attacks. Then [[Paul]] turned away and started to walk off the arena. Chimchar felt very disappointed. After this, [[Paul]] released Chimchar into the wild and said that he doesn't want Chimchar anymore. Chimchar was very upset with Paul's decision.
