Best Fire Pokemon

I guess charizard is ok. I personally think talon flame should be on this list, because he starts if extremely cute then turns into an amazing sweeper. He knows a lot of move sets, and stricks fear in the hearts of all, like a speed demon. The only reason Charizard gets my vote is because he has a good mega evolution that boosts his attacks, stats, etc. Although, Blastoise could easily beat Charizard. Water is effective against fire, and blastoise is a tank. And really, I love grass starters, but not many people actually choose them. SO basically, Blastoise is a god. But charizard is a good pal.

Normal Charizard would be my second favorite Pokémon if it wasn't for it having TWO mega evolutions, I super cool Gigantamax, and a trainer in XYZ using it to fight Mega Rayquaza, Zygarde, and a bunch of mega evolutions! (Alain was way too op)

Are we talking about design or how a Pokemon perform in a battle. I was a charizard fan because I liked its design so much. Then I played the game and found charizard is terrible. 534 stat isn't great, solar power isn't great, moveset isn't great because even it gets dragon dance, swords dance, belly drum, it is a special attacker so these moves doesn't help it, it gets roosr but it is too fragike to make good use of it, it is a flying type, being a special attacker meaning most of its flying attacks are not going to be powerful, its typing is terrible because SR. It has being in nu for reasons. I once liked charizard a lot because in anime, charizard rocks, but in games, it dies when get hit by rocks and nothing is great about it.

Stealth Rock is the nightmare for Charizard, no scratch that, Diancie is the nightmare for Charizard.

1. Fire / Flying < Rock
2. If Charizard mega evolves to X, then Dragon attacks that is STAB'd by Dragon type, if there even is one, is still nullified by Fairy.
3. Yes, Diancie can Stealth Rock.

Personally, Charizard is still cool, it's just that I have cuter mons be higer than cooler ones, and that Charizard is wayy too overrated.

Edit: And if you know it has Steel Wing, switch to Lapras. Not as great, but it stab's Water and Ice, both super effective against Fire and Dragon. Not as great as Diancie, but it does good.

I hate to say that Blaziken is the best fire type because I really want to say that it is Infernape, but Blaziken was able to make it into the UBER tier in competitive battles which is literally the highest tier. I'm talking about regular Blaziken, not just Mega Blaziken. I also believe that it does say better than other fire type pokemon because of its mega evolution. You could say that Sharks are is better because it has 2 mega evolutions, but Dragon and flying just don't have enough coverage, while fighting types cover 5 different types alone. Blaziken also gets a good amount of coverage moves like earthquake, high jump kick, solar beam, stone edge, brave bird, night slash, poison jab, shadow claw, etc. Just because you don't like a pokemon as much as another, doesn't mean that pokemon is bad, which I think I just proved. I still prefer Arcanine and Infernape, but Blaziken is just better.

See guys the one who said his favorite moment was when his combusken evolved into blaziken, bro, it was mine too.
Half the people pick Charizard because he's a gen 1 starter?
A fire flying dragon?
Or a massive giant?
I don't care. People at most love Red's or Ash's Charizard. Seismic toss, Flamethrower, OK. But Blaziken is a different class altogether. Knowing Sky Uppercut, Blaze Kick, Flare Blitz and Brave Bird... Pwr of Sky Uppercut is 95, of Blaze Kick is 85(mind you, has a high critical hit ratio), that of Brave Bird and Flare Blitz is 120. And Charizards got nothing. And whoever the heck votes Charizard before him due to speed, he's wrong. Ever seen Mega Blaziken's Speed Boost ability? Mega Charizard got Tough Claws and Drought, useless for fire types. Lastly I'd say Charizard is not that bad, but according to me Blaziken is best, on number 1

Come on. How can be Charizard number 1? It's so annoying that if a pokemon is popular and overrated IT HAS TO BE the strongest pokemon.
Zard is so, SO frail. It has a 4x weakness to stealth rock. If you really need a fire flying type choose talonflame. But Wait! Charizard has beaten blastoise in the *cough* ANIME *cough*. In the games Charizard can't do anything to blastoise even with solar beam. Its 2 megas (he's so overrated he needs 2)
aren't even good enough to beat Blaziken (wout the mega). It just needs to protect and sweep the opposition. Not to mention charizard isn't even good enough to do his work as a special sweeper. It needs a lot of setup to even do anything. I can guess if it would not be that overrated it should be rated PU by smogon. Charizard isn't even good outside of competitive play. Its fire type was so bad in red and blue that they needed to give charmander metal claw to do something to brock. But with its weak attack stat and rock pokemon defense you ...more

To be honest, Charizard is nothing compared to Blaziken. I mean it's the product of a chicken and Chuck norris being mated. It looks awesome and It can jump as high as skyscrapers and can learn brave bird and High jump kick. So basically It jumps up into the sky and dives down to its enemy or raises its leg to kick it in the face. Also its cry just listen to the awesome cry it makes to be honest, Charizard is a dog turd compared to this thing it is awesome end of story

Infernape is truly the best fire type. He was my first ever Pokemon when I started Platinum as my first game. I was in the mindset that the only good starters were the fire types (not true Sceptile, Decidueye, and Greninja are my favorites from their regions). He is my favorite Pokemon and sparked my love for Pokemon. If I didn't choose Chimchar, I probably wouldn't have even liked Pokemon. Great moves, great stats, and a beast overall. He was my first and only legit Pokemon to get to level 100. Funny Story, I had both a level 100 Infernape, a Level 78 Luxray, The National Pokedex, and a Level 69 Moltres (caught in a standard pokeball) all before I beat Cynthia. Also I had a Level 27 Togekiss that tanked a hit from Cynthia's Garchomp.

This is one of the most offensive starters I have seen. Its speed is above 100 which is quite decent and his typing is very offensive. He is also one of the keys to defeat the elite fours for generation 4. The first elite four is bug type. Infernape burns them all. The second one is ground type, Infernape has grass knot. For the third one it is fire type, Infernape has earthquake. The fourth elite one is psychic type, Infernape has punishment.

A versatile badass. Infernape has incredible offensive stats with over 100 stats for physical and special attack and speed makes it a phenomenal sweeper. Incredible moveset with moves such as acrobatics, flare blitz, flamethrower, blast burn, mach punch, blaze kick, thunder punch, solarbeam and so much more. It has such balanced offensive stats and balanced moveset allows it to be a powerhouse.

Infernape beat electivire and have the most amazing blaze than any other fire type pokemon. Fire types are usually weak against rock, and ground, but fighting types are stronger that infernape is. Also fire is weak against water types, but fighting types can beat the following quagaure, gastrodon, and other water/ground or rock. So, infernape is my favorite fire pokemon in my life

It is the best. It can be taught Thunder Punch. Thunder Punch to deal with water types and earthquake for rock type. For god's sake it can learn solarbeam for ground type. My Typhlosion in heart gold has :
Solarbeam
Thunder Punch
Flamethrower
ERUPTION

It's stats are the same as charizard. If you see a battle in Typhlosion vs Charizard, Typhlosion will kick Charizard's BUTT with a THUNDER PUNCH.

I had all 5 starters in my team that foes charizard defeated my charizard and used fullrestore.. Then he defeated all my fire/fighting pokemon including emboar the strongest in my team... Bloody wing attack
And then my typhlosion defeated that ugly reptile... With just one blow on full hp common charizard that wasnt very effective! Typhlosion won like a boss.. And defeated the other 5 pokemons as well (alone)

When I saw this Pokemon, I thought that he looks Beastly! Then I guess I'm right! With it's Eruption, Pokemon can be Fainted with this Attack!
Cyndaquil was Cute but when he evolves to Typhlosion, my God,he looks Beastly and Strong plus he was a Pure Fire-Type Pokemon so He only got less Weaknesses unlike Charizard, Blaziken, and Infernape!
That's why I love Generation 2 Pokemons

Typhlosion beat Raikou, that's one factor for being the one of the best fire type Pokemon, the next is that he can learn Thunder punch and eruption, the final one is that he's the most ferocious looking. He wants to eat his heart out he wants to eat they're children praise to be allah.

By the way this is purely based on the game, cause I don't care about what happend in the anime, because charizard beat blastoise in the johto league but in the game "blastoise used hydro pump" and the end. Anyway back on track, is arcanine the best fire type? Yes and I can give you plenty of reasons why. Firstly it has access to STAB flare blitz that can demolish anything that's weak to fire types. Water types gonna try stop ya, arcanine blows water types away with wild charge. And don't get me started on max happiness return. Arcanine max happiness with 252 evs in attack and speed and holding silk scarf can wipe the floor with almost any poke that stands in his way, and if the opponent has a focus sash and just somehow miraculously survived the return, no sweat, just finish em off with extreme speed. My arcanine using the set above always gets me at least one KO because its just so good. It's a million light years ahead of that bird man blaziken and that flying salamander charizard. ...more

Ever since... Well WAY before I played the games, this one was my favorite. I always thought he was a legendary and the design was awesome enough to make it a legendary. After I played games like Heart Gold and the Black and White series so far so on, I seemed to forget about him during these times... But when I wanted to pick my favorite Pokemon (not favorite fire type Pokemon) this one came to mind. yes, I could have picked CHarizard or Blaziken because those were the next best fire Pokemon, but starters? Give me a break. Arcanine was MEANT to be a legendary and always will be in my belief and has awesome moveset, great design, and the stats? Well... how about ALMOST as good as Dragonite, Garchomp, Tyranitar, etc. 555 is a CRAZY number Charizard and Blaziken WISH they had. What can you not like about this beast?

Arcanine, without question, far outmatches any fire type ever made in any of the games up to gen 6. This can be summed up into a few clear cut reasons.

1) Power- Arcanine was originally meant to be a legendary Pokemon, so his stats are already sky high. He has a combined base stat total of 555, which surpasses the best's of any fire type starter Pokemon. In addition, his attack and special attack stat are very close, so an Arcanine can be a physical or special threat.

2) Attacks/Coverage- Arcanine's move pool is coverage, coverage, and more coverage. An Arcanine with Flare Blitz, Wild Charge, SolarBeam, and Extreme Speed, although it may not be a standard moveset, covers all three of its weaknesses.

3) Design- Simply put, Arcanine's design looks at least as imposing as most other Pokemon in the dex. The whole lion/tiger idea is genius.

Arcanine is my favorite Pokemon. He's a fire dog that you can ride. what's better then that? Now all the other comments seem to have covered the attack based arcanine. However, I myself love to use a physicially defensive leftovers set. Intimidate and then will-o-wisp. Your physical attackers won't be doing anything to this beast! Earth quake? Okay. Arcanine will just eat that for lunch and come at you with a stab flare blitz. almost out but think you can get one more hit on me? Nah man. I got extreme speed. Seriously, this Pokemon has shut down so many physical attackers it's ridiculous.

Ho-oh's stats fit his legendary status and is a deadly sweeper even against other legendaries. And with the new gen with resistance to fairies and stealth rock nerfed with defog he has become a top uber, which even Reshiram can't brag about. Sacred Fire is arguably the best fire attack in the game and whatever it doesn't burn he can hit them with Brave Bird, indeed, very few Pokemons are safely switch into Ho-oh, even Kyogre doesn't like taking Brave Bird. Rock Arceus is perhaps the closest thing to a counter but even then Ho-oh can also wield EQ to hurt it. Stealth Rock will probably always be Ho-oh greatest threat and as long as you keep it out it is virtually unstoppable.

So yeah, Ho-oh is the only Pokemon I can think of that is a top uber Pokemon and also a fire type. Reshiram, Blaziken, Charizard and every other fire Pokemon all fall short to the noble phoenix who dominates the fire Pokemons.

Ho-oh's base stat is 680 - higher than any Fire Pokemon in the first four generation's of games (unless one counts Arceus with a Fire Plate hold item), easily the strongest Fire Pokemon in battle, the only downside is it's rarity which is limited to Gold/Silver, Colosseum and Heart Gold/Soul Silver outside of event only conditions.

I can't believe this is under charizard. This has the same typing as charizard, but with with better stats. I don't even know where to start, but charizard is just overrated. He has two mega stones, do any other starters have two mega stones? Nope, just charizard (and mewtwo) has two mega stones. Let's give a huge thanks to Gamefreak for just overrating charizard to the point where people think it's the best fire-type Pokémon.

How is Ho-Oh so low? Charizard may be overall better since he is easier to obtain and still has decent stats, but Charizard is a pebble compared to the mountain Ho-Oh. Pretty much indomitable, this beast revived the Legendary Beasts- Entei, Suicune, and Raikou- after the Brass Tower burned down. Easily the most powerful.

Houndoom is a Fire/Dark Hellhound! It is definitely one of the awesomest and powerful Pokemon out there. It's Strong against Physic type moves and you want to have it in your party! Pokemon fans I am disdianed... There is no reason why Houndoom shouldn't be at least 5th place on this page. I mean sure charizard and arcanine are agurable. But honesty if you have legendary Pokemon in your party (besides the 3 birds) your a sad excuse as a trainer

Really, this low? Houndoom is a complete beast, and has the coolest design! It's shiny and Mega are amazing, too! This Pokémon should 100% be in at LEAST the top 10. Considering how many amazing moves it has, such as Flamethrower, Nasty Plot, Dark Pulse, Overheat, Inferno, Foul Play, Sludge Bomb, and whatever else this Pokémon can learn, it's able to defeat so many enemies! I personally have won every battle that Houndoom was involved in, and most of them were won by just this Pokémon alone.

Why isn't he higher? His design is awesome, he has high special attack and access to Nasty Plot and Flamethrower, he's got an awesome shiny, a mega-evolution, and not to mention an awesome name! Also, he was my first shiny.

I have a full art Houndoom EX and I spent an hour trying to figure out how much it's worth, but it is in mint condition and to be honest, totally awesome. I would never trade that card away. It is by far my favorite card!

One of the most powerful sweepers in the game. Quiver dance combined with awesome stats scare anything away besides heatran. My personal set is quiver dance, fiery dance (good to use if you want a boost but can't use quiver dance, or to revenge kill), bug buzz (raw power), and psychic, because that provides near perfect coverage (excluding heatran) well, that's my volcarona. Thanks!

Volcarona is far better than charizard. Charizard has flying as well so he picks up a lot of weaknesses and not as many strengths. Volcarona, however, has fire and bug. Bug which grants Volcarona all the wonderful moves like bug buzz, etc, while picking up many strengths. Charizard is only number 1 because it's the most popular in it's category. Ignorant people.

Honestly, completely op, and Quiver Dance makes him able to kill most Pokemon, Bug Buzz for Raw Power, Fiery Dance for getting boosts during taunts. The last spot can do practically anything you want, HP Ice, Psychic, Roost, Signal Beam, U-Turn, Wild Charge, Aerial Ace, Whirlwind or Hurricane.

Volcarona has VERY high special attack, and as a result it is very good. One strategy I like is using a Volbeat, have it use Tail Glow, followed by substitute, and finish it off with Baton Pass. Then I let Volcarona do the rest of the work.

This pokemon that comes from the 4th gen is the best non-legendary fire pokemon ever! With its super amazing special attack stats, it can send pokemons flying into their own grave. If a pokemon fights with Magmortar with Psychic, Flamethrower/PPupped Fire Blast, Thunder, and Hyper Beam, they are digging their own graves.

He could break the Pokemon league in one magma shot that is how incredible he is. At least boost him up 2 ranks to 7th place he is super tough.

I don't see why this is 12. Incredible special attack and great wall breaker. Definitely should be above ninetails. Ninetails is better as its alolan form anyway.

Amazing Pokemon, great special attack and attack! You can chose any kind of attack. Special or physical, he is both great in them.

I think Flareon is AWESOME. It's so cute and fluffy! Not to mention it's monstrously high attack stat. It's definitely the favorite out of all the Eevee evolutions. It can also learn lots of different moves, and it has FLASH FIRE for an ability. Let's see what happens when other fire types blow fire on it!

Flareon to me, is the cutest Eeveelution and the only Eeveelution that keeps Eevee's fur/Fluffiness but even more enhanced then before! Flareon is so cute and fluffy I want to hug one so much that I start sounding like the chairman of the Pokemon FanClub in Vermillion City who thinks the same for his Ponyta.

A amazing Pokemon, my favourite Pokemon right now, and a very overhated Pokemon/Eeveelution too ;-;

I think Flareon is cool because it evolves from Eevee and Eevee can evolve into seven different types of pokemon. Flareon, Vaporeon, Jolteon, Espeon, Umbreon, Leafeon, Glaceon.
Thank you for reading this!

Flareon is awesome. It is a fire fox and it's so adorable. Also, surprisingly powerful if you train it good enough. My level 53 Flareon beat a level 42 Blastoise.

Why is it so low, and how is it worse than charizard. Stats? Entei better than charizard (I think 580>534, charizard fans if u don't agree with that then ok). Ability? Entei better than charizard(flash fire more useful than solar power because it is easier to activate and doesn't lose health that fast, u should also agree with this one, zard fans). Moveset? Sacred fire is better than fire blast, Entei also gets extreme speed. They can both eq, but charizard doesn't do a good job using eq since it is a special attacker while Entei is better than charizard at using it because Entei is a physical attacker. Entei wins this one. Typing? Entei is better than charizard because SR EVERYWHERE. Entei also wins this one. So pretty much Entei is better than charizard in EVERYTHING, charizard fans, please tell me why u think charizard is better.

I always was so happy when I finally caught this awesome Pokemon. I spend like 20 hours catching it, but it was worth it.

According to research, when Entei roars, a volcano will erupt on the other side of the world.

Why is entei down here? Entei is better than everything above it, is the best fire type legendary, and can rek charizard no problem.

Ninetales is especially useful for the mid-game stretch. In Gen 1 Vulpix learned Flamethrower at Level 35, 15 levels earlier than Growlithe. In Gen 2 Vulpix learned it even earlier at Level 31, which can help a lot against Jasmine and Pryce. In Gen 3 it learned Flamethrower at Level 29, early enough to help against Erika. It can also help against Champion Steven as well in RSE, since Ninetales is faster than Torkoal.

Ninetales is one of my favorite Pokemon. And he/she can learn so many different moves that are really strong fire moves like overheat, flameburst, and flamethrower but some people think that Charizard is the strongest fire type in the world, I beg to differ. Mabye some people even like Camerupt I used to like him/her. But Ninetales is one of the best fire type Pokemon in my opinion.

A beautiful adorable fire type and the evolved form of my favourite Pokemon Vulpix. Ninetales learns Fire Spin at a very early level, which helps a lot. It also learns Flamethrower, Will o Wisp and Extrasensory at good levels which is why it's the best fire type Pokemon.

It looks amazing. That's the reason I voted for it. Then again, if you look at the stats, they aren't very good and not even close to things like arcanine. Also, his moves aren't very diverse. Not the best, but so cute!

Rapidash should work for Garden Force, literally the most retarded Pokemon, in this one episode Ash is naughtily slapping one on the bottom and call it rude names, whilst groaning furiously.

Rapidash has to at the top of this list! Not only can it use fire moves it can learn bonce! I find this very useful in a hard Pokemon battle! Or a 2v2 battle I use samorot (lv100) with rapidash and use bounce and use surf on every one! And if ones still standing... bounce finishis the battle!

I agree with the garden force comment, the dapper gentleman who submitted that comment, really knows his pokemon.

This was my fire type of my 3man team in Pearl. Sorry Palkia, but this horse isn't messing around

Moltres is my favorite Pokemon like. What if you were about to get fallen off a cliff then. Moltres will save you so Moltres rocks.

Hey they are from mental hospital whoever made this list it should be the third in this list after ho-oh and reshiram.

Moltres dives into an active volcano to regain health and it can make and control fire AND it can fly. This Pokémon is awesome and personally one of my favorites so screw you all if you don't like it

Moltres - A rare, unique and super-powerful flaming bird. Much cooler than Ho-oh! 'enough said.

This used to be my favorite Pokémon and is my friends favorite Pokémon to this day. I remember the first time I did sword and shield with the DLC I got Suicune and Reshiram from Dynamax adventures and used Reshiram to beat the game.

It's a legendary pokemon. It's fire and dragon type! Does the name vast white pokemon mean nothing to you people? Maybe you guys belong in a mental hospital. And with Arceus, he's not a fire type. He can be but that's not his true type.

Not only is this dragon my fave fire type, but it's also (probably) my fave pokemon OF ALL TIME. I like it both design wise & competitively. Also, this one is my fave shiny of all time as well. There's not much else to say. Reshiram is awesome.

You know what even though Zekrom is way better than Reshiram but I Still voted Reshiram l kinda like its design I think. but it is one of my favourite fire pokemon for reasons. you should vote Reshiram by the way if you want to.

Victini is the best. It learns 7 legendary moves: V-Create, Searing Shot, Bolt Strike, Fusion Bolt, Blue Flare, Fusion Flare, and Glaciate. It also is a Fire-Psychic type, which is very strong offensively. It also has access to the strongest Fire-type move, V-Create, which has a whopping 180 BP. If it was more famous, like Charizard is, it would be number one. Finally, Victini is EXTREMELY adorable, especially in its movie. Since it has an amazing movepool, a great typing, a powerful signature move, and it looks absolutely adorable, Victini is the best Fire type, and in my opinion, the best Pokémon.

What the heck why is visit I in 9th place? He is a psychic and fire type and it never loses because it is the victory Pokemon plus it's cute. Victimized may be a hard Pokemon to get but you don't regret getting him. Victimized has an amazing move set as well. Vi tiny stole my heart right when I found out he was real.

It looks cute, and it is an underused legendary. It's stats are VERY well balanced and pretty high overall. It's combination of Fire, Psychic Fighting and Normal type moves is okay. It's ability is good for attacks like Overheat, Inferno or Zen Headbutt. It should be higher

Obviously victini is the best!
Even the legendary reshiram and zapdos together were not able to break the shield of victini but victini alone broke the shield with V-create attack!
Imagine its power!

My second favorite starter. Am I the only person who always chooses the fire starters except in XY because Delphox, I think it's called, sucks? Incineroar is just so freakin cool, I wish Ash used it more.

Definitely a Pokemon that has divided the fan base, however, this pokemon has so much character and is proven to be the best alola starter. I love tigers and to see a tiger Pokemon is a dream come true. Ignore its design and pay attention to its battling capabilities. I promise you won't be disappointed

Number eighteen?
I mean come on its one of the most used Pokemon in Pokemon world tournament. It has intimidate which troubles other attacker. Fake out, knock off, flare blitz, u-turn. I mean come on rock slide for litrally destroy charizard.
Why don't you like it. Vote for it.

Take John cena and a cat and fire you get this beast!
This thing can beat charizard! It should be in the top 10 in my opinion!

Super quick. Using flames to generate speed equals absolute epic fire type! In my opinion, should be at number 1 or if it just loses to Charizard then number 2.

I believe Talonflame should be rated higher than 20 cause the heck it battled two legendary bird pokemon in the anime plus it is really badass.

Talon flame is pretty much O.P. It can rek most people with bravebird and its speed again is like beyond belief. But u need to evolve Fletchling into Fletchender then Fletchender into Talonflame. But I'd say he is all worth while. Also his strength and stamina are underestimated even his health. He withstands a lot of attacks but some attacks can do bucket loads of damage to it.

Taninflame is fast, and is a beast with brave bird.

He can destroy so many Pokemon and he is so fun to use.

This guy is basucly a much better version of charizard.

Fennikan may not be the best starter pokémon in X and Y, but Victini (the victory pokémon) shares the fire/psychic duo type. It could be more than coincidence! Many fire and psychic moves are sp. Attacks and upon evolving into Delphox sp. Attack stat greatly increases. An idea is to use hypnosis so your enemy is asleep and then attack with dream eater until your oppoment no longer is asleep. To finish it up use blast burn or mystic fire.

Absolutely adorable, such a successful evolution line, even the middle stage is well-known and respected. Delphox (final evolution) says boss battle like no other and has a massively interesting type. Fire and Psysic. This was my first Pokémon and I have no regrets.

Great for a psychic/Fire type, it can be weak at times so I understand why it's so low on this list.

Do you know what I like more than this Fox? Knowledge!

Torkoal is my favorite fire type next to typhlosion. Torkoal has great defense, but nothing else. It's worst stat is speed. But there is trick room for that! But you can give Torkoal Shell smash and rapid spin followed by a life orb will mean you'll have the time of your life. However, you can't just pick up torkoal and be like "I'm gonna use Torkoal! " No, you gotta know the thing before using it! Filthy casual!

I also like Torkoal cause Flannery uses Torkoal and I like... yeah

He's a flaming turtle. There's no reason not to like him.

Torkoal is so helpful to me.

Ii like the defense power and its attack mainly when it battles registeel

Being a fire/psychic, Delphox, if used correctly, can beat Blaziken, Infernape, and Emboar. If it's taught the right moves Delphox would make an excellent member of any team as long as you have Pokemon to cover its weaknesses "water, dark, ghost, ground, and rock". I suggest teaching it the moves Blast Burn, Overheat, Psychic, and Solar Beam all of which are high powered attacks and they help to nullify one of its weaknesses.

Barring Victini, Delphox is the only Fire/Psychic type. With Fairies being more common, people put Poison and Steel Pokémon on their team. Delphox beats them both with 2 moves to spare. Also, if you train it right with Modest or Timid, its Sp. Atk/Spd grow insanely high. Its weaknesses are easily covered by a well-built team. And, being a starter, you don't have to rage and flip tables trying to find one.
Therefore, Delphox is awesome.

I agree with the person who said they're Delphox loved them so much. Well guess what? Same for me. My Delphox loves me so much that whenever it gets paralyzed, Asleep, Poisoned, and a burn, if always shakes it off, and My Delphox also holds on to one HP left for me also. Now yes, Delphox is the very best. It'll never Die!

This has a psychic type, so it can defeat Blaziken, Infernape and Emboar. It's stats are amazing, I don't know HOW this is 18. I understand Charizard, Arcanine and Hoh-Oh, but really?! Flareon and Ninetales?! I get it, they are strong but Delphox is way better.

Growlithe is epic! It's cute, strong, fast, loyal, powerful, friendly and just generally amazing-what more could you want from a Pokemon?

The growlithe is like a police dog on earth and I think it will guard us when we are dangerous so it's too cool.

He's so cute nothing bad about him just an all round good Pokemon what more do could you ask for

Used to have one

I wouldn't like this if it weren't for that movie where Heatran gets one of those plates from team galaxy and goes berserk (I forgot what it is called) then I would not have voted Heatran. But I'm that movie he is so cool, so I gotta vote him. Surprised he is down so low.

HEATRAN THE TANK - why this title? - This Pokemon, the only fire/steel type, has five resistances 25% damage, 2 immunities 0%, and four regular times 2 resistances 50%... Offensively this is the only Pokemon with Magma Storm, the only partial-trap move with 100+ which lets me switch and murder any Pokemon.

More facts- Learns Dragon Pulse for coverage. PERFECT STATS! 91 HP (386 life), 106 definitely (342), and 106 special definitely (342) makes his life to defense 1:1 which means it has the highest the potential of taking hits on both sides with its total stats.

Heatran is good. Once I used my level 100 Tyranitar against a level 100 Heatran. Heatran has 4x weakness to ground. My tyranitar used earthquake against heatran but heatran still survived!

Got heatran on my black 2 he was the BEAST! He had the best moveset I've probably seen and he's a Legendary 22nd place doesn't suit him.

Emboar is one of my favourite Pokemon ever. It's moves are really strong and people even say he is O.P. Which is half true and half not true because certain Pokemon basically shriek him. A way to beat him is to basically get a Pokemon with loads of moves and spray them all at him. This is another way of killing loads of other Pokemon too.

Emboar is an ok Pokemon. But it is not as powerful as everyone's saying. It has good HP and attack. But other than that it is really bad. My advice choose oshawott as your starter Pokemon.

This guy can defeat any fire pokemon on this list because it can learn SCALD! that's right I said it if tou don't believe me try teaching the scald tm to your emboar I REKT steven's steel ground and rock with this pokemon he truly deserves 2nd place

I think it's a very strong fire Pokemon that can even hold his own against water type Pokemon...
