CHARIZARD

Charizard has been a personal favorite of mine since the Pokemon game came out.  I am a self-proclaimed Fire Pokemon expert.  I always pick the Fire starter when playing any of the Pokemon games.  I have also made Charmander.  At some point, I will make Charmeleon.  I have included the color lists for both Charizard and Shiny Charizard.
