Special abilities

Behavior

Salamence is an extremely vicious Pokémon. It is also arrogant, putting on airs their victories by spouting intense flames into the air. This behavior may be explained due to the fact that it faced many hardships to get its wings grow, and therefore, it is very proud of its achievement.

Salamence supposedly lives atop tall mountains.

Salamence was first seen in the 6th Pokémon movie: Jirachi: Wish Maker. Butler used it against a wild Flygon that was helping to free Jirachi from him.

Silver used his Salamence to battle Moltres in The Search for the Legend.

Team Rocket found a Salamence in some underground ruins when they were searching for Ho-oh in Battling the Enemy Within.
