Charizard can be called upon at any time and has been used in many major battles when Ash requires its firepower. Some of its prominent victories include the series's first [[double battle]] (it and {{AP|Pikachu}} versus an {{p|Alakazam}} and a {{p|Marowak}}), Ash's first Johto Gym battle against [[Falkner]] (where it defeated Falkner's {{p|Pidgeot}} despite the latter's impressive {{stat|Speed}}), Ash's fight against [[Gary Oak]] in ''[[EP270|Can't Beat the Heat!]]'' (during which it decisively defeated [[Gary's Blastoise]] despite the type disadvantage and having already defeated Gary's {{p|Scizor}} and Golem), and more recently in ''[[AG136|The Symbol Life]]'', where it took on [[Factory Head Noland|Noland's]] {{p|Articuno}} at the [[Battle Frontier (Hoenn)#Battle Factory|Battle Factory]] and won thanks to its use of the newly-learned {{m|Overheat}}, the unorthodox strategy of catching Articuno as it tried to use {{m|Steel Wing}} on it, and its trademark {{m|Seismic Toss}}. Charizard also battled alongside Squirtle, Bulbasaur, and Pikachu in a four-on-four battle against [[Pyramid King Brandon|Brandon]]'s Pokémon in ''[[AG189|Gathering the Gang of Four!]]'', but it was defeated by Brandon's Dusclops. | Charizard can be called upon at any time and has been used in many major battles when Ash requires its firepower.

Since it began to obey Ash, Charizard has only lost four major battles, being defeated by {{oi|Drake}}'s {{TP|Drake|Dragonite}} (after defeating an {{p|Electabuzz}}), the [[Unown (Spell of the Unown)|Unown]]-enhanced [[Entei (Spell of the Unown)|Entei]] ( | Since it began to obey Ash, Charizard has only lost four major battles, being defeated by {{oi|Drake}}'s {{TP|Drake|Dragonite}} (after defeating an {{p|Electabuzz}}), the [[Unown (Spell of the Unown)|Unown]]-enhanced [[Entei (Spell of the Unown)|Entei]] (managing to hold it off for some time despite the superior power of illusionary Pokemon when compared to the 'real' ones, as shown previously), {{Jo|Harrison}}'s {{TP|Harrison|Blaziken}} (injuring it so badly that Harrison was unable to use it for the rest of the Pokémon League), and [[Pyramid King Brandon|Brandon's]] {{p|Dusclops}} (which was then soundly defeated by {{AP|Bulbasaur}}). It learned {{m|Steel Wing}} in the time between the battle against Articuno and the battle against Dusclops. | ||
