Alain's Charizard (Japanese: アランのリザードン Alain's Lizardon) is a Pokémon owned by Alain.

History

As a Charmander

As a Charmeleon

Alain met Charmander when he was still one of Professor Sycamore's assistants. He took Charmander with him on his journey to find Mega Stones.

Later, Charmander evolved into Charmeleon sometime before Alain contacted Professor Sycamore. It battled Lysandre's Pyroar for the Ampharosite and lost. Sometime after Alain received a Mega Ring and Charizardite X, Charmeleon evolved into Charizard.

Charizard made its official debut in Mega Evolution Special I where Alain sent it out to battle Astrid's Absol. Charizard began with Flamethrower while Absol countered with Psycho Cut. Afterwards, Alain Mega Evolved Charizard to Mega Charizard X while Astrid did the same to her Absol. Mega Charizard X then used Steel Wing, Dragon Claw, and another Flamethrower in which Absol withstood. Mega Charizard X defeated Absol with a powerful Blast Burn. After the battle, Charizard sat with Alain by a flowing river.

When Alain went to some ancient ruins, he battled Remo’s Garchomp, Garchoo, using Charizard. Both sides immediately Mega Evolved their Pokémon. Mega Charizard X took a hit from Remo's Mega Garchomp's Dragon Rush and Dual Chop. Mega Charizard X then clashed its Dragon Claw with Mega Garchomp's Dual Chop. The smoke cleared and Mega Charizard X was left standing.

Charizard went up against Siebold's Blastoise. After Mega Evolving, it started with Dragon Claw but Blastoise evaded and countered with Skull Bash. Mega Charizard X used Steel Wing next while Mega Blastoise countered with Dragon Pulse powered by Mega Launcher. After dodging Mega Blastoise's Hydro Pump, Mega Charizard X clashed its Flamethrower while getting hit by Mega Blastoise's Power-Up Punch. Mega Blastoise used another Dragon Pulse which delivered heavy damage to Mega Charizard X and Mega Charizard X was defeated.

Alain and his Charizard

In Mega Evolution Special II, Charizard fought Steven's Metagross. It Mega Evolved into Mega Charizard X and launched a Flamethrower which was countered by Metagross's Psychic. Despite having a type-advantage, Mega Charizard X was overwhelmed by Mega Metagross's attacks. Also, none of its attacks were able to faze Mega Metagross, as shown with Blast Burn. As both sides went for Dragon Claw and Meteor Mash, Lysandre's Pyroar interrupted the battle before it was finished.

While Alain, Mairin, Steven, and Lysandre were in some ancient ruins and Rayquaza attacked, Alain sent out Charizard alongside Steven's Metagross. After Mega Evolving into Mega Charizard X, it launched a Flamethrower and Mega Rayquaza quickly evaded the attack. Mega Charizard X got attacked by Mega Rayquaza's Dragon Ascent and fell. Steven's Mega Metagross tried stopping the fall but Mega Rayquaza's Draco Meteor forced the group to take evasive action.

In Mega Evolution Special III, Alain sent out Charizard to protect the giant rock hovering over Primal Groudon and Primal Kyogre, amd immediately Mega Evolved it into Mega Charizard X. Mairin took notice of Mega Charizard X and so did Primal Groudon. Primal Groudon started with Solar Beam which Mega Charizard X easily dodged. Steven's Metagross joined in and fought Primal Kyogre as Steven pointed out to Alain that he could not protect the giant rock alone with Charizard. Mega Charizard X scored a hit with Flamethrower while Primal Groudon countered with Precipice Blades. Mega Charizard X was able to dodge them all and Dragon Clawed the last one.

Primal Groudon attempted to get the giant rock but Mega Charizard X used Steel Wing on its hand. Despite covering Primal Groudon with smoke, it was able to use Precipice Blades again and this time, landed a hit on Mega Charizard X. Mega Charizard X was dealt tremendous amount of damage from it and sent it crashing onto some ice caused by Primal Kyogre's Ice Beam earlier. The ice shards buried Mega Charizard X. Alain ran to see if Mega Charizard X was okay and recalled it before the flame on its tail went out completely.

Charizard was later seen in the episode battling a Trainer's Mega Tyranitar, while being observed by Lysandre.

In SS035, Charizard fought against ten Mega Evolution Trainers with the final one being Malva and her Houndoom. It was surprised by the Dark Pokémon as its Flamethrower was initially countered by Houndoom's Flash Fire Ability. Afterwards, Houndoom Mega Evolved and put Charizard on the defense with a strong Flamethrower, and when Charizard attempted to counter by taking to the sky it got pinned down by Houndoom's Smog. Charizard released itself with Flamethrower and went on the offense with Steel Wing, which Houndoom countered with its horns. Houndoom then pinned Charizard to the ground with its Crunch attack, but Charizard freed itself with a Flamethrower (which Houndoom was no longer immune to) and then blocked Houndoom's Crunch with Dragon Claw. The battle carried on for a bit until a visibly exhausted Charizard managed to score a direct hit with its Blast Burn, defeating Houndoom and winning the battle.

Personality and characteristics

Charizard appears to be very similar to Alain. It seems very proud of its power and is always willing to battle with other Pokémon. Charizard and Alain both travel to fulfill their dream of defeating every Mega Evolved Pokémon and Charizard has a remarkably strong connection with Alain. It is extremely loyal and caring of him and the two of them have been shown together having fun, traveling together, and participating in intense Pokémon battles.

As a Charmander, it was shown to be very affectionate to Alain and vice versa, even though they just met. Alain called it "sweet". This trait of it remains as a Charizard; when he introduced himself and his Charizard to Mairin, he was shown petting it to its delight.
