Charmeleon (Japanese: リザード Lizardo) is a Template:Type2 Pokémon.
It evolves from Charmander starting at level 16, and evolves into Charizard starting at level 36.
Biology
Physiology
Charmeleon is a bipedal, reptilian creature similar to Charmander. It has crimson scales that are much darker than that of the bright orange Charmander. It has a tail with the tip burning with fire, a trait seen in many Template:Type2 Pokémon, especially the Charmander evolutionary line. Its skull has developed a horn-like protrusion to the rear and its mouth has elongated into a snout. Its front and back claws are far sharper and longer than Charmander.
Gender differences
None.
Special abilities
Charmeleon can breathe fire. This fire is much hotter than Charmander's. This is a result of a larger flame burning at the tip of its tail than that of Charmander's.
It possesses incredibly large claws which it utilizes in its powerful Slash attack. Its tail is also very powerful, having enough strength to lift an adult man.
Behavior
Charmeleon tend to be stubborn, bad-tempered, and simply hot-headed. Due to their incredible power at such a low level, they can easily feel they are better than their trainers and will sometimes disregard attack commands. When tame, however, they are a formidable opponent and a loyal partner. Wild Charmeleon are ready to evolve when they begin to travel in different areas battling random opponents, and the flames on their tails begin to flash larger.
Habitat
Charmeleon are rare in the wild, but thrive in harsh environments such as craggy mountains and active volcanoes. Charmeleon also dwell in large numbers in abandoned mines and heated valleys. It is most likely to be found in Kanto.
Diet
- Main article: Pokémon food
Charmeleon when in the wild will hunt solitary much unlike Charmander who hunt in packs. Their diet consists that of the average omnivorous Pokémon diet.
In the anime

Trivia
- Charmeleon and Charizard share the same species name as Flareon, Moltres, and Infernape. They are all known as Flame Pokémon.
- Charmeleon is the one of the two members of an evolution family of a starter Pokémon not to have appeared in the Super Smash Bros. series. The other being Wartortle.
- Charmeleon and its evolution family are the only Pokémon who have flames as part of their bodies that do not go out naturally (with the Pokémon still being alive).
- Oddly, Charmelon could learn Metal Claw Via Level up in LG/FR [At Lv.13] but in Generation IV it could only learn this movie VIA egg move.
Origin
Charmeleon resembles a small dinosaur with remnants of Charmander's salamander-like appearance. Although its nomenclature suggests commonality with the chameleon, Charmeleon exhibits very few of the major physiologically distinguishing traits of the chameleon.
Charmeleon hasn't the specialized zygodactylic feet, separately mobile eyes, extrudable tongue, or the ability to change color like some members of the chameleon species.
The few characteristics it does share are the similarly looking snout, a prominent head crest (which resembles a small horn in its Generation I back sprite), and extensive use of its tail. Chameleons have prehensile tails used for climbing and grasping, while Charmeleon utilizes its tail as a weapon.
Name origin
Charmeleon's name is a portmanteau of the word char, to burn, and chameleon. Its Japanese name is the Katakana spelling of lizard.
In other languages
- German: Glutexo - A combination of Glut (ember, also the German translation for the move of the same name) and Echse (lizard).
- French: Reptincel - Most likely a combination of reptile and Étincelle (spark).
- Korean: 리자드 Rijadeu - Hangul spelling of Lizard.
- Chinese (Hong Kong and Taiwan): 火恐龍 Huǒ Kǒng Lóng - "Fire dinosaur."
