'''Charizard''' ({{ja|リザードン|Rizādon}}, ''Lizardon'') is a playable character in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' in a sense; it is one of three Pokémon that are played through the {{SSBB|Pokémon Trainer}}, the other two being {{SSBB|Squirtle}} and {{SSBB|Ivysaur}}. Charizard originates from [[bulbapedia:Generation I|the original ''Pokémon'' games]] as the second and final evolved form of [[Charmander]], one of the initial Pokémon the player can start out with at the beginning of the adventure. | |||

Despite being the fifth [[weight|heaviest]] character in ''Brawl'', it differs greatly from the other heavyweights in abilities, though it does share their stats. It has a surprisingly fast [[dashing]] speed (slightly faster than {{SSBB|Pikachu}} though the difference is extremely small.) for a character of its weight, but it also has the slowest walking speed in the game ({{SSBB|Jigglypuff}} shares the same problem). It is also the second fastest heavyweight in game, next only to Captain Falcon. It is almost unaffected by [[type effectiveness]]; both | Despite being the fifth [[weight|heaviest]] character in ''Brawl'', it differs greatly from the other heavyweights in abilities, though it does share their stats. Charizard is also the only heavyweight Pokémon in the ''{{b|Super Smash Bros.|series}}'' series. It has a surprisingly fast [[dashing]] speed (slightly faster than {{SSBB|Pikachu}} though the difference is extremely small.) for a character of its weight, but it also has the slowest walking speed in the game ({{SSBB|Jigglypuff}} shares the same problem). It is also the second fastest heavyweight in game, next only to Captain Falcon. It is almost unaffected by [[type effectiveness]]; both [[grass]] and [[water]]-type attacks are only used by 2 characters each. Charizard is one of only three playable characters to possess wings (the others being {{SSBB|Pit}} and {{SSBB|Meta Knight}}), and as such is gifted with two, very small midair [[jump]]s and the ability to [[glide]]. Both the start-up and the actual glide are significantly slower than the other two gliders though, making it difficult to incorporate into strategies outside of safer, less-predictable recoveries and infinite horizontal [[recovery]]. Charizard is easy to hit due to being a very large target, but can take lots of [[damage]] before getting [[KO]]'d due to its large weight. Like all three of the Pokémon Trainer's Pokémon, Charizard is susceptible to {{h2|Pokémon Change|stamina}} fatigue; after two minutes of play, its moves will be noticeably less powerful (in both [[damage]] and [[knockback]]). Given Charizard's high KO power and staying ability, however, it could be said it is the least affected by stamina of the three. | ||
Predictably, Charizard is a powerful character with long attack range. Its smash attacks are all quite powerful, with its forward smash being capable of KOing a little below 80%. Charizard's power and range are counter-balanced by having a significant amount of ending lag after its power moves. Charizard can put decent offensive pressure on the opponent with its multiple jumps, [[Flamethrower]], back aerial, up tilt, and up smash, and can also give out more defensive damage with moves like its forward tilt, down tilt and forward aerial (the last of which is especially useful when properly ledge-hopped). Neutral aerial and [[Rock Smash]] work both defensively and offensively, so overall Charizard has balanced attack capabilities. Despite its good range, Charizard's approach suffers against well-spaced disjointed hitboxes; Charizard fights best at mid to close range, where swords and the like are generally superior ({{SSBB|Marth}}'s forward aerial can even cut through all of Rock Smash). Charizard's specials are potent. Its Flamethrower is great at racking up the damage at close range, and also works well as an edge-guard or stalling tactic at mid-range. On the downside, Charizard lacks a long-ranged projectile. Complementing the damage-racking of Flamethrower is Charizard's side special, [[Rock Smash]]. It provides Charizard with an additional, relatively-safe power move; the headbutt packs a more portable punch than its smashes, and damage dealt from the rock fragments can combine to over 50%. Charizard's up special [[Fly]] has [[armor]] frames and significant knockback (although it has a linear path and is a somewhat poor recovery move, more because it suffers from 30 frames of the [[landing lag glitch]]), which both contribute to its recovery and can surprise high-speed rushdown moves (like Meta Knight's glide attack) by bursting through for a potential KO. Also, due the start-up, poor push-away and large landing lag of Charizard's aerials, it has a very poor air game. It is even easy to tech-chase when it lies on the ground due to its terrible get-up rolls (for example, it can't even roll behind Snake who stays stationary after it down throws him). | Predictably, Charizard is a powerful character with long attack range.

Charizard is first seen flying towards [[The Ruins]] by {{SSBB|Lucas}} and {{SSBB|Pokémon Trainer}}. Pokémon Trainer recognizes that Charizard is one of the Pokémon he's been trying to catch, and he and Lucas head into the ruins to attempt to capture it. In the process, they encounter {{SSBB|Ivysaur}} in trophy form, which Pokémon Trainer captures. Eventually, Lucas and Pokémon Trainer defeat Charizard in battle and capture it, giving Pokémon Trainer his full team of {{SSBB|Squirtle}}, Ivysaur and Charizard. | |||

Charizard's trophy is obtained by clearing {{SSBB|Classic Mode}} with the Pokémon Trainer and must deliver the final hit to {{SSBB|Master Hand}} with Charizard. | |||
===Description=== | |||
''A Flame Pokémon. Its fiery breath is hot enough to burn up rocks, and its wings let it fly up to 4,600 feet into the air. It's a proud Pokémon that will never use its flame breath on an opponent weaker than itself. The flame on its tail is a barometer of how much vitality it has remaining. Its signature move, Flamethrower, is a reliable technique.'' | |||
