Description:  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.  It appears to be very vicious.  It attacks with razor-sharp claws and won't stop until the enemy is defeated.  The evolutionary successor to Charmander, Charmeleon have a flaming tail that easily defeats Ice-type Pokémon but proves ineffective against Water-type Pokémon. Over time, Charmeleon will evolve into Charizard.
