As a basis, Sugimori took an image of an animal - Salamandra. Interestingly, at the time of the Middle Ages, this amphibian was considered the impersonation of fire. In addition, today there is even a kind of "Fire Salamander". True, such a name was given for its color, and not due to any superpowers.
The appearance of the character caused ambiguous reviews. Some critics picture Charmantera seemed funny, and the dependence of the force of the flame on health and emotions is definitely weakness. Others expressed a misunderstanding about how the "kid" turns into a formidable flying dinosaur.
One way or another, the hero caused public resonance. In 1999, a lizard suit with a flaming tail was the most popular on Halloween.
Debuting in games, Charmanander was developed in comics and anime. So, in the pilot series of the cartoon Ash wanted to take it immediately after the Bulbazaur and Squirtul. But late - so the animal was at the student of the school coaches.
Ketchum also appeared after the previous owner left him in the forest, having considered it too weak. Esh saved the animal, which by that time almost went out fire. Next, the audience was observed the creation in the form of charmeleon, and in the final evolution - in the form of charzard. In the film "Pokemon. Detective Pikachu "The hero is playing Assistant Coach Sebastian.
