Charizard is a Fire/Flying-type Pokémon from the Pokémon series that has been a playable character in the Super Smash Bros. series starting from Super Smash Bros. Brawl, as well as making an appearance as a playable character in the 3D fighting game, Pokkén Tournament. It is the final evolution of Charmander, which is the Fire-type starter Pokémon of the Kanto region, and has two Mega Evolutions known as Mega Charizard X and Mega Charizard Y. It appears at #006 in both the Kanto and National Pokédexes.
The fire from Charizard's mouth is hot enough to melt boulders, as well as accidentally cause forest fires. The flame at the tip of its tail also burns more intensely as the fires from Charizard's mouth grows hotter, turning to whitish-blue color whenever it is enraged or Mega Evolves into Mega Charizard X. Its wings are strong enough to allow Charizard to fly at altitudes as high as 4,600 feet, with it capable of reaching even higher altitudes and speeds when it becomes Mega Charizard Y. When it Mega Evolves into Mega Charizard X, the excess energy of the Mega Evolution process not only increases the intensity of its flames to the point where they now appear blue, but also chars Charizard's body to the point where it becomes pitch black.
In M.U.G.E.N, Charizard has been made by various creators.
Gladiacloud's version[]
Based on the Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U incarnation of Charizard, this version may appear slow, but its Hypers really pack a punch. Its size allows it to cover large distances, though while one would assume this would make it easier to hit, the infinite priority on its attacks makes its size less of a disadvantage and more of a blessing; if only Ridley could've been this lucky.
RicePigeon's version[]
From Gensokyo to the Kanto region, Charizard takes flight. While initially based on Gladiacloud's version, this Charizard takes a few creative liberties to put a new spin on an old Gen 1 favorite. Breaking from typical Pokémon game mechanics, this Charizard seems to be able to utilize Z-Moves more than once per match, but only when its Z-Gauge is filled from damage dealt to it; just make sure to use it before losing it at the end of each round.
