| |
| '''Charizard''' ({{ja|リザードン|Rizādon}}, ''Lizardon'') is a character in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''. Unlike in ''Super Smash Bros. 4'', Charizard is no longer a standalone character, and is back under the {{SSBU|Pokémon Trainer}}’s control. It was confirmed on June 12th, 2018. Along with the Pokémon Trainer and his other Pokémon, Charizard is classified as [[Fighter number|Fighter #35]]. Shin'ichirō Miki reprises his voiced role as Charizard in all regions, providing new clips. | |
| | |
| Charizard, alongside the rest of the Pokémon Trainer's team, is ranked 24th out of 82 on the official ''Ultimate'' [[tier list]]. This is a significant improvement over its placement as a standalone fighter in ''SSB4'', where it was ranked 42nd out of 54, thus resulting in its best placement in the series to date.

| |
| Charizard is a super heavyweight fighter and one of the characters made playable from [[Pokémon Trainer]], alongside the likes of [[Squirtle]] and [[Ivysaur]]. While {{SSBU|Squirtle}} will automatically be the first Pokémon on-screen if Pokémon Trainer is selected, pressing the [[Y button]] twice on the character select screen will toggle Charizard as first. In relation to [[Pokémon Change]], the order is always Charizard-Squirtle-{{SSBU|Ivysaur}}. If Ivysaur is [[KO]]d, Charizard will always appear on the next [[revival platform]].
| |
| | |
| Charizard deviates from the other super heavyweight characters in mobility. Its ground game provides extensive utility courtesy of its high initial dash and run speed. Also, its normals such as forward tilt and neutral attack are supplemented by skid canceling. Its high traction and quick out-of-shield options like up special and up smash suit its close-quarters combat well. Up smash hits on frame 6, KOs at reliable percents, and functions as an effective juggling and anti-air tool alongside up tilt.
| |
| | |
| Charizard's neutral air is a multi-purpose tool that is useful at starting and extending combos, juggling, edge guarding opponents, and helping Charizard land. It is capable of stringing into itself, forward air, and back air, especially out of a fast fall. Its forward air is fast (frame 8) and has considerable power as a combo finisher and KO tool. Up air renders Charizard's head intangible and is one of the strongest in the game, making it a reliable juggling tool and finisher. It is also a makeshift combo starter at low to middle percent ranges. Back air's power cannot be understated; it features extensive disjoint and a wide diagonal arc that overpowers opponents above and behind Charizard. Down air's sweet spot hitbox is large and powerful, allowing it to easily [[meteor smash]] opponents on the ledge and KO at low percents.
| |
| | |
| Charizard's grab game is highly flexible, being capable of setting up combos and positioning the opponent, as well as outright KOing them. Having minimal ending lag, back throw is a versatile combo tool that leads to the likes of forward air, back air, and reverse neutral air. It positions the opponent off-stage at higher percents as well. Down throw fills the combo starter role like back throw, though it is much less effective. Forward throw has higher knockback than back throw, being able to set up edge guards and ledge traps earlier, as well as KO'ing at higher percents. Up throw works as a last-resort KO option at 150% and above, or earlier on stages with platforms.
| |
| | |
| Of Charizard's special moves, Flamethrower sees the most utility, having a long range and being able to angle up or down. It pressures opponents to approach, counteracts weak projectiles, and is a useful ledge-trapping move. Fly has super armor at its startup, not only granting Charizard a safer recovery but also a reliable option out of parry against attacks with multiple hits. Flare Blitz is a strong hard-punish attack that effectively tech chases opponents and inflicts significant damage and knockback.
| |
| | |
| Overall, Charizard's main benefits include its robust advantage state, damage-racking capabilities, and KO potential. It can build significant damage from just a few hits thanks to its high returns from its combos and strings, mainly out of its back throw. Charizard is the most advantaged when it is below the opponent. Its neutral air, up tilt, up smash, and back air are disjointed and cover wide arcs against opponents above it. Charizard also comes with respectable edgeguarding and ledge-trapping abilities. Flamethrower covers many get-up options when adequately spaced, and the player can punish them on reaction with down smash, up smash, forward tilt, or neutral air. Forward tilt (angled downwards) and down smash are also capable of hitting characters at the ledge.
| |
| | |
| Charizard's neutral game is considered mediocre. Flamethrower's decay prevents it from being usable for a long time, and its few safe-on-shield options, such as back air, neutral air, and forward tilt, require precise spacing and timing for the highest benefit. Its moveset contains several flaws that offset its strengths, including forward air not being able to autocancel out of a short hop. Thus, its moveset requires high commitment, resulting in heavy reliance on movement and reads to control the tempo of the game. While Charizard can maintain a strong advantage state, its moveset is built to cover paths the opponent is taking instead of juggling them aggressively. Charizard’s biggest weakness is against characters that can rush it down with combos such as {{SSBU|Squirtle}}, {{SSBU|Mario}}, {{SSBU|Palutena}}, {{SSBU|Lucina}}, and {{SSBU|Corrin}}, as its few combo-breaking moves are either too risky or too slow to be consistent in this application.
| |
| | |
| All in all, Charizard is a well-rounded super heavyweight but has the weakest auto-pilot of the three Pokémon in the Pokémon Trainer's party. It must rely on sheer mobility and player interaction and must work around the glaring problems its moveset contains. Charizard can function both offensively and defensively in the neutral, but it is up to the player to find the most advantageous position in this spectrum. Once it gains advantage, it must capitalize on the opponent's mistakes to the greatest extent for the highest return. While Charizard is fully functional as an individual fighter like Squirtle and Ivysaur, it is the Pokémon of choice at 120% and above. Its high weight lets it survive blows that would otherwise be fatal to Squirtle and Ivysaur. Also, especially with rage, many of its attacks have the KO power required to swiftly finish an opponent already weakened by the other two Pokémon.
| |
| | |
| Charizard can be considered the best super heavyweight in the game as its Trainer can call on it when its strength, endurance, and recovery are needed and remove it from situations that exploit the weaknesses it shares with fighters of its weight class. While Charizard requires more skill and prediction to use to its full potential than Squirtle and Ivysaur, Pokémon Trainers that have mastered the Flame Pokémon will be rewarded significantly with the options that it brings to the table.
| |
| | |
| If the player wishes to centralize their gameplan around Charizard, knowledge of Squirtle is recommended. It excels in areas where Charizard tends to be weak (combos, evasion, and frame data) and can be used most effectively in situations where Charizard would struggle, especially in racking up damage and avoiding enemy combos at low percents. Muscle memory with Squirtle can supplement Charizard's own combo game and movement as well.

| | ===Aesthetics=== |
| -->
| | *{{change|Charizard's model features a more subdued color scheme, resembling its appearance in recent mainline ''[[Pokémon]]'' games. Additionally, the flame on its tail has a more stylized appearance.}} |
| Previously the standalone character in ''SSB4'' representing the trio of Pokémon in ''Brawl'', Charizard now returns as part of the {{SSBU|Pokémon Trainer}}'s crew. As expected, it has kept many of its changes from ''SSB4'', and has also retained its function as the fastest and hardest-hitting member of the Pokémon Trainer's party. In the transition to ''Ultimate'', Charizard has received a mix of buffs and nerfs; while it was initially ambiguous to whether it was buffed or nerfed, game updates have provided Charizard with useful buffs that have improved its options and fixed inconsistencies with its moveset. Because of this, Charizard has been buffed overall.
| | *{{change|During normal matches, Charizard uses the {{SSBU|Pokémon Trainer}}'s stock icon and victory screen name call instead of having its own. However, its own individual stock icon has been seen in the Spirits mode.}} |
| | | *{{change|Charizard's moves in a wave-like motion during its dash animation, similar to [[Lugia]] on the title screen for ''{{s|bulbapedia|Pokémon SoulSilver}}''.}} [https://youtu.be/QSjO2RYhEEg?t=68] |
| When it comes to its grounded moveset, most of Charizard's finishers have become much more reliable; [[forward tilt]] has a better hitbox placement and more knockback, [[forward smash]] deals more damage and knockback, some of [[up smash]]'s hitboxes link more reliably and the second hit is faster and [[down smash]] no longer has sourspots. Charizard has also gained other finishers, with [[dash attack]] gaining more damage and knockback and [[forward throw]] dealing more knockback. [[Up tilt]]'s hitbox also covers more horizontal range, improving its already decent anti-air potential. On the other hand, in terms of its aerial moveset, Charizard's [[neutral aerial]] has much less ending lag and its animation is faster, making it a more effective air-to-air option and combo extender, and [[back aerial]] has better vertical range that overlaps, making the move's dangerous sweetspot easier to land. Its special moveset has also seen some improvements, with [[Flare Blitz]]'s hitbox now linking much more reliably into the explosion, which is stronger, and [[Fly]]'s ascending hits linking much more reliably, making both more reliable.
| | *{{change|Charizard now hangs onto the ledge with one hand instead of two.}} |
| | | *{{change|Charizard's voice clips have been updated.}} |
| The revamped game mechanics have brought mostly positive changes to Charizard. While the increased mobility has benefitted most characters, Charizard is one of the biggest recipients relative to the cast; its previously abysmal initial [[dash]] speed is now one of the fastest in the game (which allows Charizard to also benefit from the ability to [[run cancel|use any attack out of a run]]), its [[air speed]] is now substantially faster compared to ''SSB4'', and its [[falling speed]] and [[fast fall]]ing speed are much higher, making it easier for Charizard to land while making its [[neutral game]] potentially more effective, and the universally faster jumpsquat significantly helps its buffed aerials. The changes to [[air dodge]]s help Charizard overall, allowing it to use a directional air dodge to escape combos and juggling more easily, while not making it much more susceptible to edgeguarding due to its multiple jumps and faster air speed. Its increased mobility also allows Charizard to catch opponents that could abuse directional air dodging with more ease. Finally, the increased [[shieldstun]] has further improved Charizard's ground game, making its moves safer on shield when properly spaced, most notably its sweetspotted forward tilt and down tilt.
| | *{{change|Charizard has two new taunts:}} |
| | | **It stands upright for its down taunt, similar to {{SSBU|Ridley}}'s taunt. |
| However, Charizard has also received equally notable nerfs, which particularly affect its former most effective tools. [[Neutral attack]]'s third hit has shorter range and the first two hits can no longer jab cancel in exchange for their ability to [[lock]], and [[down throw]] had its combo potential mitigated due to receiving more ending lag; both latter changes also worsen Charizard's combo game. Notably, the removal of [[Rock Smash]] to make way for [[Pokémon Change]] has eliminated a previous landing option and shield-pressuring tool from its moveset. However, Pokémon Change can be considered a strength to Pokémon Trainer as an aggregate if the player wishes to eject Charizard from any given situation and take advantage of {{SSBU|Squirtle}}'s small size and combo game. Charizard's most notable nerf, however, is that [[forward aerial]] no longer [[autocancel]]s in a short hop due to its faster falling speed and has reduced range on its furthest hitbox, which cripples one of Charizard's former most notable tools in the neutral game. Finally, while its higher fall speed has slightly improved Charizard's neutral game and landing issues, said change has also made it easier to combo.
| | **It does a quick aerial flip and roars during its side taunt. |
|
| |
|
| Some of the changes to game mechanics have also hindered Charizard. The increased startup on grabs [[out of shield]] after blocking an attack has worsened Charizard's out of shield game (despite options such as up smash and Fly), and when combined with down throw's lost combo potential, Charizard's grab game has been worsened overall (though it still remains flexible in terms of power). The universal reductions to [[landing lag]] have overall hindered Charizard, as they allow characters to space their moves on shield more easily, though while they have significantly improved its landing options (most notably its neutral, up and down aerials), some of Charizard's aerials still remain highly punishable; this change also further compounds the loss of forward aerial as an option in neutral, its slightly worsened out of shield game, and its vulnerability to combos. Lastly, while Charizard's faster initial dash is unquestionably beneficial, the changes to initial dash mechanics cause Charizard's microspacing abilities to be weakened, especially through the use of moves like forward tilt.
| | ===Attributes=== |
| | *{{buff|Charizard is once again a part of {{SSBU|Pokémon Trainer}} as a transformation character, greatly increasing its options by allowing it to switch to {{SSBU|Squirtle}} or {{SSBU|Ivysaur}}.}} |
| | *{{buff|Like all characters, Charizard's [[jumpsquat]] takes 3 frames to complete, down from 7. This greatly increases its speed when transitioning to the air. }} |
| | *{{buff|Charizard's initial [[dash]] speed is noticeably faster, having previously been tied with {{SSB4|Bowser}} for the slowest initial dash.}} |
| | *{{buff|Charizard moves its head to a less vulnerable position during [[forward air]], [[down smash]], [[grab|standing grab]], and when ledge hanging.}} |
| | *{{buff|Charizard's second [[midair jump]] now gives as much height as its first, improving its air game and [[recovery]].}} |
| | *{{nerf|Charizard takes small amounts of damage while [[swimming]]. It shares this attribute with {{SSBU|Sonic}}, {{SSBU|Inkling}}, and {{SSBU|Incineroar}}.}} |
|
| |
|
| Overall, both Charizard's strengths and weaknesses have been further defined. While it has much better mobility and power, both points are now counterbalanced by new flaws from its moveset and changes to the game engine, such as a more polarized neutral game due to the streamlining of its previously most powerful tools and a higher vulnerability to combos. Game updates, however, have buffed Charizard as a standalone character, alleviating a few of its issues. As such, while Charizard fares slightly better than it did in its solo appearance in ''SSB4'', it has been retooled to fit more in-line with the "heavyweight" character among its partners, letting Charizard adapt to situations where its recovery, speed, endurance and/or KO power are needed, and may now replace itself with {{SSBU|Squirtle}} or {{SSBU|Ivysaur}} in cases where Charizard's weaknesses can be exploited and Squirtle's or Ivysaur's cannot.
| | ===Ground attacks=== |
| | *{{nerf|[[Neutral attack]]'s hits link less reliably.}} |
| | *{{change|[[Up tilt]] has an altered animation with Charizard jumping higher and its wings spreading out more to the side. As a result, the move has more horizontal coverage at the expense of vertical range.}} |
| | *{{buff|[[Up smash]] has more horizontal range and both hits connect more reliably. It is now capable of landing both hits even on small characters standing behind Charizard.}} |
|
| |
|
| {{SSB4 to SSBU changelist|char=Charizard}} | | ===Aerial attacks=== |
| | *{{buff|All aerials have reduced landing lag.}} |
| | *{{buff|[[Neutral aerial]]'s animation has been sped up and its end lag has been reduced.}} |
| | *{{change|Neutral aerial's [[autocancel]] window is unchanged despite the animation being sped up, effectively increasing its end lag before it can autocancel.}} |
| | *{{buff|[[Forward aerial]] deals more knockback.}} |
| | *{{nerf|Forward aerial no longer autocancels out of a [[shorthop]] due to a slight decrease in Charizard's [[shorthop]] duration.}} |
| | *{{buff|[[Back aerial]] has increased vertical range.}} |

| |
| As a result of Charizard being considered to be the worst Pokémon Trainer Pokémon at launch, it was buffed in updates. Charizard would only receive small but helpful buffs throughout update 2.0.0 and 3.1.0, slightly improving its consistency and KO power. It wasn't until update 4.0.0 where Charizard would gain some considerable buffs. Said update made its forward tilt and forward smash much stronger, Charizard's neutral aerial was given two more active frames on its hitboxes, on top of having less landing lag, making it safer on shield and easier to combo into other moves more reliably out of fast fall. Forward throw was given more knockback and Flare Blitz is now able to grab the ledge substantially earlier. Charizard also benefited from the near-universal buff to shield sizes granted in 7.0.0. Update 9.0.0 buffed the consistency of Flare Blitz and Fly, making the two moves connect more reliably than they once did before.
| |
|
| |
|
| Overall, Charizard fares much better than it did at the beginning of ''Ultimate''. Whether or not Charizard is one of the better Pokémon in the trio is up for debate, but nonetheless it has found its footing and is being used much more on average.
| | ===Special Moves=== |
| | | *{{buff|[[Flare Blitz]] deals more knockback and shield damage.}} |
| '''{{GameIcon|ssbu}} {{SSBU|2.0.0}}'''
| | *{{change|Flare Blitz causes Charizard to emit orange flames on startup instead of a glowing blue. Its flame effects are much more intense.}} |

| | *{{change|Charizard's voice is now louder when using Flare Blitz, allowing players to actually hear it without adjusting the [[Sound]] settings.}} |
| | | *{{buff|[[Fly]]'s hitboxes are larger, and its hits connect more reliably.}} |
| '''{{GameIcon|ssbu}} {{SSBU|3.0.0}}'''
| | *{{nerf|Fly deals less knockback.}} |
| {{UpdateList (SSBU)/3.0.0|char=Charizard}}
| | *{{change|Charizard's old down special, [[Rock Smash]], has been replaced with [[Pokémon Change]]. While this reduces Charizard's own defensive capabilities, it allows it to instead change places with {{SSBU|Squirtle}} to adapt to different situations.}} |
| | | *{{buff|Pokémon Change can now be used in the air and is much quicker, allowing the user to potentially combo into another Pokémon's moves or choose the recovery move that suits their situation best. Like in ''Brawl'', it also offers brief [[intangibility]] during the switch, giving it the functionality of a dodge, even in the air.}} |
| '''{{GameIcon|ssbu}} {{SSBU|3.1.0}}'''
| | **{{nerf|If Pokémon Change is used repeatedly, it will grant no invincibility frames for a period of time. Pokémon Change also has a cooldown of around two seconds.}} |

| |
| |ftiltname=Flame Tail ({{ja|ほのおのしっぽ|Honoo No Shippo}})
| |
| |ftiltdmg=11% (flame), 7% (tail)
| |
| |ftiltdesc=Swings its tail forward. The move has a sweetspot at the [[Flame|flaming]] tip of Charizard's tail. When sweetspotted, it has high knockback for a tilt attack, KOing middleweights at around 140% from the center of {{SSBU|Final Destination}}. Having long-range and [[angle|angling]] capabilities, forward tilt is an essential tool in the neutral game for spacing and approaching.
| |
| |utiltname=Wing Thrust ({{ja|はねあげ|Hane Age}})
| |
| |utiltdmg=8%
| |
| |utiltdesc=Jumps with its wings widespread, hitting with them from below. While it has decent vertical range, it is not an effective anti-air attack because the hurtboxes of its wings are vertically extended. In addition, it has very low priority, since it almost always clanks with weak attacks and loses against strong attacks. Lastly, it doesn't hit grounded opponents or ducking characters as easily.
| |
| |dtiltname=Low Headbutt ({{ja|ていくうずつき|Teikū Zutsuki}})
| |
| |dtiltdmg=10%
| |
| |dtiltdesc=Headbutts low to the ground. It has long-range and launches at a [[semi-spike]] angle, which makes it useful for edgeguarding and tech chasing. However, it is unsuited for combos or KOing at conventional damage ranges. If it is blocked, even when unspaced, it cannot be shieldgrabbed by the majority of the cast, including Palutena and Bowser.
| |
| |dashname=Front Kick ({{ja|まえげり|Mae Geri}})
| |
| |dashdmg=13% (clean), 10% (late)
| |
| |dashdesc=Kicks forward. Dash attack has very high base knockback, and its power and long duration allow it to effectively punish cooldown and break zoning. The move KOs at high percents near the ledge.
| |
| |fsmashname=Headlong Rush ({{ja|ぶちかまし|Buchikamashi}})
| |
| |fsmashdmg={{ChargedSmashDmgSSBU|19}} (clean, late body), {{ChargedSmashDmgSSBU|16.4}} (late head)
| |
| |fsmashdesc=Performs a lunging headbutt. Very strong, with its sweetspot KOing middleweights under 70% from the center of Final Destination. It also renders Charizard [[intangible]] throughout its duration. However, it is extremely unsafe, hitting on frame 22 and suffering 45 frames of ending lag. | |
| |usmashname=Wing Bash ({{ja|ウイングバッシュ|Uingu Basshu}})
| |
| |usmashdmg={{ChargedSmashDmgSSBU|5}} (hit 1), {{ChargedSmashDmgSSBU|11}} (hit 2)
| |
| |usmashdesc=Chops away with its wings in an overhead, fanning motion. Charizard's up smash possesses wide range and disjoint and KOs most characters within the 100%-120% range. It is also among the quickest up smashes in the game (hitting grounded opponents on frame 6 and aerial opponents on frame 7), making it a potent anti-air and out-of-shield option.
| |
| |dsmashname={{s|bulbapedia|Wing Attack}} ({{ja|つばさでうつ|Tsubasa De Utsu}})
| |
| |dsmashdmg={{ChargedSmashDmgSSBU|16}}
| |
| |dsmashdesc= Stomps the ground, creating a shock wave. It hits on both sides of Charizard and launches at a semi-spike angle, making it potent for edgeguarding. However, it has slow startup and extremely high ending lag.
| |
| |nairname=Charizard Turn ({{ja|リザードンターン|Rizādon Tān}})
| |
| |nairdmg={{ShortHopDmgSSBU|12}} (flame), {{ShortHopDmgSSBU|9}} (tail)
| |
| |nairdesc=Somersaults forward, striking with its tail. Its sweetspot is at the flaming tip of Charizard's tail. It can auto-cancel in a short hop and quickly hits all around Charizard. Has strong combo potential (especially when used while landing) and gimping potential. It is also a satisfactory landing option. At its fastest, neutral air hits behind Charizard and is thus best used out of a [[reverse aerial rush]]. | |
| |fairname=Aerial Claw ({{ja|くうちゅうひっかき|Kūchū Hikkaki}})
| |
| |fairdmg={{ShortHopDmgSSBU|12}} (early), {{ShortHopDmgSSBU|13}} (clean)
| |
| |fairdesc=A downward arcing slash with its claws. Its high power, speed (frame 8) and semi-spike angle make it reliable as an edgeguarding and KOing option. However, it has high landing lag and cannot auto-cancel in a short hop, limiting its utility in the neutral.
| |
| |bairname=Aerial Tail ({{ja|くうちゅうしっぽ|Kūchū Shippo}})
| |
| |bairdmg={{ShortHopDmgSSBU|16}} (flame), {{ShortHopDmgSSBU|14}} (tail), {{ShortHopDmgSSBU|11}} (body)
| |
| |bairdesc=Swings its long tail behind it. It has slow startup, ending lag, and landing lag. However, the sweetspot at the tip of Charizard's tail is incredibly disjointed, deals high damage, and KOs middleweights under 90%, making it Charizard's strongest KO option and one of the strongest of it kind. The diagonal arc the move covers allows it to overpower opponents above Charizard.
| |
| |uairname=Heading ({{ja|ヘディング|Hedingu}})
| |
| |uairdmg={{ShortHopDmgSSBU|13}}
| |
| |uairdesc=An upward headbutt. The move's damage output and particularly high knockback allow it to KO middleweights under 100% near the upper blast line. It renders Charizard's head intangible and serves as a makeshift combo starter into itself, up smash, or other aerial attacks when landing.
| |
| |dairname=Meteor Stomp ({{ja|メテオスタンプ|Meteo Sutanpu}})
| |
| |dairdmg={{ShortHopDmgSSBU|14}} (clean), {{ShortHopDmgSSBU|8}} (late)
| |
| |dairdesc=Kicks straight down. The clean hit is a [[meteor smash]], with a sourspot on Charizard's body that deals high sideways knockback. Down aerial has the highest overall lag of Charizard's aerials, but can function as a niche combo starter against grounded opponents, allowing for a potential KO setup into up aerial at higher percents.
| |
| |grabname=Grab ({{ja|つかみ|Tsukami}})
| |
| |grabdesc=Reaches out with its neck to bite and hold the opponent. Grabbed opponents are [[wikipedia:Clinch fighting|clinched]] while held by Charizard's open mouth. Great range.
| |
| |pummelname=Biting and Tearing ({{ja|かみちぎり|Kamichigiri}})
| |
| |pummeldmg=1.6%
| |
| |pummeldesc=A bite. Slow but strong.
| |
| |fthrowname=Biting Throw ({{ja|かみとばし|Kamitobashi}})
| |
| |fthrowdmg=10%
| |
| |fthrowdesc=Hurls the opponent forward with its teeth. Charizard's forward throw is among the strongest in the game, KOing middleweights near the edge of Final Destination at around 105% without [[rage]]. It can also be used as a [[DI]] trap against opponents attempting to DI Charizard's up throw.
| |
| |bthrowname=Rear Biting Throw ({{ja|うしろかみとばし|Ushiro Kamitobashi}})
| |
| |bthrowdmg=10%
| |
| |bthrowdesc=Hurls the opponent backward with its teeth. This is considered Charizard's most versatile throw, capable of setting up edgeguards, KO'ing middleweights at around 130% at the edge of Final Destination, and leading to a wide range of high-damage bread-and-butter combos and 50/50 situations with only 5 frames of ending lag. True combos from Charizard's back throw include dash attack, [[reverse aerial rush]] neutral aerial, and up smash at very low percents, and forward aerial or back aerial up to around 50% percents. It can also follow up into Flare Blitz, but this is not a true combo.
| |
| |uthrowname={{s|bulbapedia|Seismic Toss}} ({{ja|ちきゅうなげ|Chikyu Nage}})
| |
| |uthrowdmg=8% (hit 1), 3% (throw)
| |
| |uthrowdesc=Flies into the air and dives into the ground to suplex the opponent, akin to {{SSBU|Kirby}} and {{SSBU|Meta Knight}}'s up throws. It is one of the strongest throws in the game without DI, but its mostly vertical, yet more horizontal angle than other up throws allows the target to easily DI down and away, surviving the move up to around 160% at ground level without rage, though platforms such as those on [[Battlefield]] and [[Town and City]] alleviate this issue.
| |
| |dthrowname=Roasting Heat ({{ja|あぶりやき|Aburi Yaki}})
| |
| |dthrowdmg=1% (hits 1-5), 1% (throw)
| |
| |dthrowdesc=Pins the opponent to the ground and hovers, expelling embers from its mouth on them. Down throw's moderate ending lag allows it to function as a niche combo starter, leading into up smash out of dash at low percents and neutral or forward aerial until mid percents.
| |
| |floorfname=
| |
| |floorfdmg=7%
| |
| |floorfdesc=Swings its tail backward, then headbutts forward while getting up.
| |
| |floorbname=
| |
| |floorbdmg=7%
| |
| |floorbdesc=Swings its tail forward and backward while getting up.
| |
| |floortname=
| |
| |floortdmg=5%
| |
| |floortdesc=Performs a slash with its claws while getting up.
| |
| |edgename=
| |
| |edgedmg=10%
| |
| |edgedesc=Performs a battering ram while climbing up from the ledge. This comes out on frame 24, compared to Squirtle's slow frame 28 and Ivysaur's quicker frame 21. It is one of the longest edge attacks in the game.
| |
| |nsname=Flamethrower
| |
| |nsdmg=2% (clean), 1% (late)
| |
| |nsdesc=[[bulbapedia:Flamethrower (move)|Expels a stream of flames from its mouth]], almost identically to [[Fire Breath]]. Flamethrower remains active as long as the user holds down the B button, but its power and range gradually decreases with prolonged or continuous use. It can also be angled slightly up or down, making it useful for ledgetrapping purposes and [[Gimp|interrupting]] low recoveries. Compared to Fire Breath, Flamethrower deals lower damage but is capable of causing [[flinch]]ing at far ranges.
| |
| |ssname=Flare Blitz
| |
| |ssdmg=6% (collision), 18% (explosion)
| |
| |ssdesc=[[bulbapedia:Flare Blitz (move)|A flaming corkscrew tackle]] that also hurts Charizard. Flare Blitz is extremely powerful, KOing middleweights under 80% from the center of Final Destination and possessing incredible horizontal burst range. It also grants [[heavy armor]] on frames 23-53 that sustains 15% (18% in 1v1)<ref>https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1thw3dkxtnvoA6bDKRnZiCeBwcmHmRLqBSv_dpmy4Nfg/edit?usp=sharing</ref> damage, enabling it to bypass most weaker attacks and projectiles. However, it deals 5% of recoil damage upon activation and an additional 5% on contact, and contains extreme amounts of cooldown, enabling opponents to punish it out of shield just as hard. In the same way, Flare Blitz can be used off the ledge to KO opponents at disproportionally low percentages at the risk of a self-destruct in the event it misses.
| |
| |usname=Fly
| |
| |usdmg=5% (hit 1), 2% (hits 2-5), 4% (hit 6)
| |
| |usdesc=[[bulbapedia:Fly (move)|Flies upward]] in a corkscrewing motion. Fly covers an average amount of vertical distance. Has the lowest amount of startup out of Charizard's special moves, connecting as early as frame 9. It grants super armor during frames 4-15, enabling it to intercept airborne combos and punish opponents [[out of shield]]. It deals a respectable 17% damage when all hits connect, and can KO airborne targets reliably at high percents.
| |
| |dsname=Pokémon Change
| |
| |dsdmg=—
| |
| |dsdesc=The {{SSBU|Pokémon Trainer}} calls Charizard back to its Poké Ball and sends out {{SSBU|Squirtle}}.
| |
| |fsname=Triple Finish
| |
| |fsdmg=5% (Fire Blast, first four), 7.5% (Fire Blast, final)
| |
| |fsdesc={{SSBU|Squirtle}} and {{SSBU|Ivysaur}} are sent out alongside Charizard, and all three Pokémon perform a synchronized team attack directly in front of them. Charizard expels five {{iw|bulbapedia|Fire Blast|move}}s in a row, with the last one having the highest power.

| During Charizard's victory poses, the Pokémon Trainer will say one of two lines at random. The male Trainer will say either "You all did great!" ({{ja|みんな、よくがんばったな!|Minna, yoku ganbatta na!}}, ''Everyone, you did great!'') or "You did it, Charizard!" ({{ja|やったぞ、リザードン!|Yatta zo, Lizardon!}}, ''You did it, Charizard!''). The female Trainer will say either "Everyone did great!" ({{ja|みんな、最高だね!|Minna, saikō da ne!}}, ''Everyone, you're the best!'') or "You're amazing, Charizard!" ({{ja|すごいね、リザードン!|Sugoi ne, Lizardon!}}, ''Amazing, Charizard!'').
| |
| *'''Left:''' Stomps and rears its head back to roar upward, then strikes a pose.
| |
| *'''Up:''' Uses [[Flare Blitz]] downwards to descend from the sky and crash into the ground, bounces out of it and lands on its feet, then strikes a pose.
| |
| *'''Right:''' Pokémon Trainer pets its head and neck.

| Charizard and the male {{SSBU|Pokémon Trainer}} were among the fighters that were summoned to fight against the army of [[Master Hand]]s.
| |
| | |
| While Charizard is seen standing separately from its Trainer in the establishing shot, it reunited with him, {{SSBU|Squirtle}} and {{SSBU|Ivysaur}}, shortly before [[Galeem]] unleashed his beams of light. Under Pokémon Trainer's command, Charizard used [[Flamethrower]] in an attempt to fight the beams of light, but this attempt failed. Pokémon Trainer, Squirtle, Ivysaur and Charizard were all vaporized and placed under Galeem's imprisonment along with the other fighters, excluding {{SSBU|Kirby}}.
| |
| | |
| Pokémon Trainer can be found at the southeast near the maze that resembles [[Pac-Maze]]. Defeating him allows access to all three Pokémon.

| | Charizard was sent out by Pokémon Trainer, along with {{SSBU|Squirtle}} and {{SSBU|Ivysaur}}, shortly before [[Galeem]] unleashed its beams of light. Under Pokémon Trainer's command, Charizard used [[Flamethrower]] in an attempt to fight the beams of light, but this attempt failed. Pokémon Trainer, Squirtle, Ivysaur and Charizard were all vaporized and transformed into [[Spirits (characters)|spirits]] along with the other fighters, excluding {{SSBU|Kirby}}. |
| Charizard's fighter spirit can be obtained by completing {{SSBU|Classic Mode}}. It is also available periodically for purchase in the shop for 300 Gold, but only after Pokémon Trainer has been unlocked. Unlocking Pokémon Trainer in World of Light allows the player to preview the first spirit below in the Spirit List under the name "???". As a fighter spirit, it cannot be used in Spirit Battles and is purely aesthetic. Its fighter spirit has an alternate version that replaces it with its artwork in ''Ultimate''. | |
| | |
| Additionally, [[Mega Charizard X]] appears as a primary spirit.

| ==Trivia== | | ==Trivia== |
| *One of the [[List of tips (SSBU)#Pokémon_Trainer|in-game tips for Charizard]] states that its wings "won't take damage" during its up tilt. However, this is incorrect, as the hurtboxes on Charizard's wings extend upward without gaining [[intangibility]] or [[invincibility]], making it easier to hit. The player can see this by turning on the invincibility option in training mode. | | *Charizard is the only character in ''Smash Bros.'' to have been part of a transformation character in one game, separated into a standalone character, and then reverted back to a transformation character. |
| **This tip is recycled from ''Smash 4'', where Charizard's wings do not possess hurtboxes.
| | *Charizard and {{SSBU|Lucario}} are the only characters to have had their [[Final Smash]] change between games only to have it revert back to the previous Final Smash. In Charizard's case, it had [[Triple Finish]] in ''Brawl'', changed to [[Mega Charizard X]] in ''Smash 4'', and then reverted back to Triple Finish in ''Ultimate''. |
| *Charizard is the only character in the series to have been part of a composite character in one game, separated into a standalone character, and then returned to a composite.
| | *The number of Fire Blasts fired by Charizard during Triple Finish matches the amount of PP that Fire Blast has in the mainline ''Pokémon'' games. |
| **The official Pokémon website claims that this was due to a stint of {{iw|bulbapedia|disobedience}}, similarly to {{iw|bulbapedia|Ash's Charizard}}.<ref>https://www.pokemon.com/uk/pokemon-news/celebrate-pokemon-in-super-smash-bros-ultimate/</ref> This is hinted at via its new taunts and victory poses, where it behaves in a less feral way and acts slightly more tame than it did in ''[[SSB4]]''.
| |
| *Charizard and {{SSBU|Lucario}} are the only characters to have had their [[Final Smash]] get a new one in one installment, only to revert back to their original Final Smash in the next. Charizard is part of [[Triple Finish]] in ''[[Brawl]]'', uses [[Mega Charizard X]] as a standalone character in ''[[Smash 4]]'', then reverts to Triple Finish in ''[[Ultimate]]'' (as it was regrouped back to {{SSBU|Pokemon Trainer}}'s party). In ''[[Ultimate]]'', Lucario reverts back to [[Aura Storm]] from ''Brawl'', though it still transforms into [[Mega Lucario]] while performing it. | |
| **Both characters are also Pokémon. | |
| *Charizard is the only playable Pokémon capable of {{iw|bulbapedia|Mega Evolution}} that does not Mega Evolve for their Final Smash. Mega Charizard X appears as a [[spirit]].
| |
| *Charizard uses Fire Blast five times during Triple Finish, matching the move's base PP in the ''Pokémon'' games.
| |
| *Charizard is the only veteran from ''Smash 4'' whose announcer voice clip is not reused in ''Ultimate.'' Pokémon Trainer's name is used instead.
| |
| **Since the announcer does not call out {{SSBU|Squirtle}} or {{SSBU|Ivysaur}} either, this makes all three of Pokémon Trainer's Pokémon the only fighters not to have their own announcer clips in the game.
| |
| *With the female option for Pokémon Trainer, ''Ultimate'' marks the first time outside of the main series ''Pokémon'' games where {{iw|bulbapedia|Leaf}} or one of her counterparts is depicted with a member of Charizard's evolutionary line.
