When it swings its burning tail, it elevates the temperature to unbearably high levels.
Tough fights could excite this Pokémon. When excited, it may blow out bluish-white flames.
It is very hot-headed by nature, so it constantly seeks opponents. It calms down only when it wins.
It has a barbaric nature. In battle, it whips its fiery tail around, and slashes away with sharp claws.
If it becomes agitated during battle, it spouts intense flames, incinerating its surroundings.

Charmeleon is a bipedal, reptilian creature similar to Charmander. It has crimson scales that are much darker than that of the bright red Charmander. It has a tail with the tip burning with fire, a trait seen in many Fire-type Pokémon, especially the Charmander evolutionary line. Its skull has developed a horn-like protrusion to the rear, and its mouth has elongated into a snout. Its front, and back claws are far sharper, and longer than Charmander.
Charmeleon can, of course, breathe fire. This fire is much hotter than Charmander's. This is a result of a larger flame burning at the tip of its tail than that of Charmander's. It possesses incredibly large claws which it utilizes in its powerful Slash attack.
Charmeleon tend to be stubborn, bad-tempered, and simply hot-headed. Due to their incredible power at such a low level, they can easily feel they are better than their trainers, and will sometimes disregard attack commands. When tame, however, they are a formidable opponent, and a loyal partner. Wild Charmeleon are ready to evolve when they begin to travel in different areas battling random opponents, and the flames on their tails begin to flash larger.
Charmeleon are rare in the wild, but thrive in harsh environments such as craggy mountains, and active volcanoes. Charmeleon also dwell in large numbers in abandoned mines, and heated valleys.
Charmeleon when in the wild will hunt solitary much unlike Charmander who hunt in packs. Their diet consists that of the average omnivorous Pokémon diet.
Charmeleon's name is a portmanteau of the word char, to burn, and chameleon.
Charmeleon's name is a combination of the word "char," meaning "to burn,", and "chameleon."
