Many Charizard have appeared in the ''Pokémon'' anime, but the most prominently featured one has been {{s|bulbapedia|Ash's Charizard}}. This Charizard is well-known for its character arc: having been abandoned by [[bulbapedia:Damien|its original trainer]] as a Charmander, it was adopted by {{s|bulbapedia|Ash Ketchum}}. While Charmander started out as a loyal and shy companion, as it evolved into Charmeleon and eventually Charizard, it developed a rebellious and disobedient streak, and only truly bonded with Ash and regained its loyalty when [[bulbapedia:EP105|Ash saved its life when it was left out in the cold]]. Following this, Ash's Charizard would continue being a sporadic but loyal and powerful member of his team.

In other media, Charizard is frequently a signature Pokémon for the various incarnations of {{iw|bulbapedia|Red|game}}, as the mascot of ''Pokémon Red'' and one of the fully-evolved starter Pokémon of Kanto. In the mainline game series, Red consistently uses Charizard on his teams as an NPC, and ''{{s|bulbapedia|Pokémon Origins}}'' depicts Charizard as Red's signature Pokémon. This is reflected in the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series, where the playable [[Pokémon Trainer]], Red and Leaf's ''Smash'' incarnation, uses Charizard in their rotation as their sole fully-evolved Pokémon.
