[[Category:Fire-type Pokémon]][[Category:Generation II Pokémon]] [[Category:Red Pokémon]]

Cyndaquil (ヒノアラシ Hinoarashi) is a Fire-type Pokémon and is one of the three Starter Pokémon in the Generation II games. Starting at level 14, Cyndaquil can evolve into Quilava and then into Typhlosion at level 36.

Appearance

Cyndaquil are a small quadrupedal Pokémon that share a resemblance to an echidna. They are covered with a flame-resistant fur that is dark blue in color on its back to its head and light yellow on its underside. There are also four red spots of fur on the back that flames can be projected from. A shiny Cyndaquil has yellow fur on its back instead of dark blue.

Special Abilities

All Cyndaquil have the ability Blaze which will cause its Fire-type attacks to do 150% damage when its health is below 1/3 its max HP.

Additionally, when a Cyndaquil is frightened or angry, it can focus its internal energy to produce blazing "spines" of flame from the spots on its back. While it is a quadruped, Cyndaquil is more than capable of maneuvering on two legs.

Cyndaquil are generally timid and not naturally aggressive, and are often seen curled up into a ball for protection. This action leaves its back and special flame-emitting vent fur exposed. When predators and enemies stalk too close, Cyndaquil unleashes a flame from the vents as a deterrent. If provoked further, Cyndaquil will intensify its flames, creating a smokescreen that it uses to confuse its foe, making time to escape.
