Flare Blitz is a move where Charizard cloaks itself in fire and tackles straight forward, hitting anyone in its path. Flare Blitz is a particularly strong attack with high knockback but has a very slow startup, making the move easy to punish. It has [[recoil damage]] both in the beginning and when Charizard hits something, like an opponent, a wall, or certain projectiles.

Flare Blitz is a particularly strong attack with high knockback but has a very slow startup, making the move easy to punish. It has [[recoil damage]] both in the beginning and when Charizard hits something, like an opponent, a wall, or certain projectiles. Charizard takes 5% damage on frame 23 and gains heavy armor until frame 53 when the move ends or collision with an object or enemy, which then leads to 5% more damage taken. It then falls over (this cannot be [[tech|teched]]), allowing the opponent to punish Charizard extremely hard if they blocked the attack. | ||
The attack inflicts 4% to the opponent from the collision and another 15% from the explosion. Rarely, the explosion may miss the opponent, dealing only 4% and low knockback but causing Charizard to receive full recoil. This happens most often when the opponent is above Charizard. Knocking into an opponent or side of the stage will cause Charizard to be temporarily forced into its falling hurt animation, potentially self-destructing due to its lengthy animation. The significant-end lag on impact also makes Flare Blitz very punishable if [[shield]]ed, and if Charizard ends up lying on the ground, it can even set up a free [[jab lock]] for the opponent. As such, the move must be used sparingly and carefully, primarily as a punishing option in its own right, but also as a movement option for mix-ups and to escape potential pressure from foes. | The attack inflicts 4% to the opponent from the collision and another 15% from the explosion.

#'''Blast Burn''' ({{ja|ブラストバーン|Burasuto Bān}}): Charizard takes a little more time to charge up, and travels slowly for a short distance. Charizard is engulfed with more flames, and is more powerful, inflicting 32% damage, and the explosion upon impact causes high knockback. Charizard hurts itself significantly more, taking 6% by using the move and 10% more upon tackling an opponent. Unlike with Flare Blitz, Blast Burn's explosion cannot be reflected or absorbed. | #'''Blast Burn''' ({{ja|ブラストバーン|Burasuto Bān}}): Charizard takes a little more time to charge up, and travels slowly for a short distance.

#'''Dragon Rush''' ({{ja|ドラゴンダイブ|Doragon Daibu}}, ''Dragon Dive''): Does not have a very long charge up time, and does not have any recoil. The move has no flame effect, and instead drills through opponents and traps them, dealing continuous damage for a max of 11%, with less knockback. As a recovery option, it is better than the standard variation, as Charizard will not stop the move when it hits an opponent. However, this move does not travel as far as Flare Blitz, but the reduced travel distance does help avoid accidental self-destructs when used near stage ledges. This variation is also used during its Final Smash, [[Mega Charizard X]], as a basic attack. | #'''Dragon Rush''' ({{ja|ドラゴンダイブ|Doragon Daibu}}, ''Dragon Dive''): Does not have a very long charge up time, and does not have any recoil.

Charizard learns Flare Blitz by leveling up in all games since the move's introduction. Charizard has been able to learn Blast Burn from a move tutor starting in ''{{s|Bulbapedia|Pokémon FireRed & LeafGreen}}'' and in all games from Generation IV onwards. Finally, Charizard learns Dragon Rush as an {{s|bulbapedia|egg move}} as a [[Charmander]]. | Charizard learns Flare Blitz by leveling up in all games since the move's introduction.
