** Charizard is based on dragons, and became one of the most iconic Pokémon in the series. It's even marketed as the poster child for "dragon" Pokémon despite not even having the elemental typing.


Added DiffLines:

* {{Kaiju}}: While Charizard in general has been theorized to be this as opposed to an actual dragon, Gigantamax Charizard is definitely this, being a gigantic and intimidating creature [[NotZilla with aspects of]] Franchise/{{Godzilla}} and overall slightly resembling [[VideoGame/MonsterHunterWorld Zorah Magdaros]].

** Raichu, in comparison to Pikachu and even Pichu. Game Freak seems to be adamant on making sure you forget that Pikachu can still evolve. It doesn't even get a Mega Evolution when the concept was introduced in Generation VI. [[ThrowTheDogABone However]], this trope was finally subverted as it ''did'' get an Alolan Form in Generation VII and an unique Z-Move on top of it.

[[ThrowTheDogABone However]], this trope was finally subverted as it ''did'' get an Alolan Form in Generation VII and an unique Z-Move on top of it. However the ''Let's Go'' series sets things back to normal by introducing a lot of buffs to 'Partner Pikachu' who like Ash's Pikachu and Red's Pikachu in ''Yellow'' won't evolve, and further unlocks a Gigantamax Pikachu in Gen VIII.



** Meowth to Pikachu in the [[Anime/{{Pokemon}} anime]] specifically, largely due to the heroes keeping a Pikachu out of its ball and the villains keeping a Meowth in the anime. They are a literal Cat-and-Mouse duo, with the antagonistic cat doing the [[WesternAnimation/TomAndJerry chasing with a lot of zany schemes and contraptions, only to be outdone by the heroic mouse doing what comes naturally to survive]] (in this case shooting electricity). Incidentally, their national Dex numbers, 25 and 52, are inversions of each other, and both lines receive Alolan forms in Gen VII (though it’s only for the final form in the Pikachu line’s case).

Later they would both have their Gigantamax forms revealed together (along with Eevee, see below)



** Eevee is also a counterpart to Pikachu since they were used by Gary and Ash respectively in their first battle in the anime. Eevee has since shared an 'honorary' starter status like Pikachu as the rival's starter in ''Yellow Version'', and a starter in certain spinoffs. In the lead up to ''Sun and Moon'', [[https://youtu.be/m8lfI66T5II?t=2m30s they also got their Z moves revealed together in a trailer]] focusing on version exclusives (typically also pitted as counterparts). Both Pokémon received equal billing for ''VideoGame/PokemonLetsGoPikachuAndLetsGoEevee'', where you can start out with either one depending on the version.

Mega Charizard Y gains the Drought Ability, as well as heavily boosted Special Attack, which helps make up for the loss of Solar Power.

** Pikachu with its Pikanium Z-Crystal is also this. Catastropika [[RuleOfCool looks cool]] and is the second most-damaging Z-Move in the game, tied with Snorlax's Pulverizing Pancake[[note]]losing to V-create-based Inferno Overdrive by 10 points[[/note]] (and in fact is the third most-damaging move in the game, ''period''), but after one use, Pikachu is dead weight due to its overall low stats. The lack of a Light Ball means Catastropika only deals slightly more damage than a Light Ball Pikachu's Thunder, and less than a Volt Tackle, while only being able to be used once, making the Z-Move greatly unappealing.

* SecretArt: The event Pikachu in ''VideoGame/PokemonSwordAndShield'' has G-Max Volt Crash, which cannot be learned by any other specimen. The art is a G-Max version of Volt Tackle, which causes heavy Electric damage and inflicts piercing Paralysis upon its victims.



* SecretArt: [[MoneyMauling Pay Day]] for Meowth, to go with its ManekiNeko roots; the attack has actually been steadily limited to Meowth and ''only'' Meowth over the gens (even vanishing from Persian's learnset in Gen IV). However, in Gen V, Purrloin has this as an egg move, and in Gen III, you can get a Skitty with this through Pokémon Box, and in Gen I, it was a TM.

* MeaningfulName: Hitokage (火蜥蜴) literally means "salamander." It also combines "hi" (火), meaning "fire," with "tokage" (蜥蜴), meaning "lizard." Lizardo is a corrupted transliteration of "lizard." Lizardon combines "lizard" with "don," meaning "lord" or "head" (like a mafia don), and is a common suffix in dinosaur names (where it means "tooth"), and Charizard is a big reptilian monster like many dinosaurs were.
