Charmander

Flame-tailed starter

Charmander is a fictional creature from the Pokémon franchise—a small, orange, lizard-like monster with a flame burning at the tip of its tail.

As one of the three original starter Pokémon, it remains among the most recognizable characters in the series: I always picked Charmander because it evolves into a dragon.
