Charizard is a creature from the Pokémon series. It appeared in the 33rd episode of Death Battle, the Pokémon Battle Royale, where it fought against fellow Starter Pokémon Venusaur and Blastoise. It reappeared again alongside its trainer Red in the 57th episode and Season 2 Finale of Death Battle, Pokémon VS Digimon, where it fought against Agumon and his tamer Tai from the Digimon series.
History
Charizard is the final evolution of the Kanto starter Pokémon, Charmander. Based off of their Pokédex entries, these Pokémon are the warrior type. From the skies, they search for powerful opponents to face, but have a sense of honor as well and won't harm those who are weaker than it. However, they have been known to have a nasty temper, and when angered they won't hesitate to burn everything around them down to the ground.
