#69 Charmander - Base Set 2 (base4)

Charmander is a Fire-type Pokémon from the Base Set 2, released in February 2000. It has 50 HP and requires one Colorless Energy to retreat. The card features two attacks: Scratch, which costs one Colorless Energy and deals 10 damage, and Ember, which costs Fire and Colorless Energy, deals 30 damage, and mandates discarding a Fire Energy card attached to Charmander. Charmander’s flavor text describes its preference for hot environments, with steam reportedly emerging from its tail when caught in rain. The artwork is credited to artist Mitsuhiro Arita, and the card’s theme color aligns with its Fire typing, using a warm orange tone. It belongs to the Base series and is classified as a Common rarity. Pokémon #4 in the Pokédex is depicted as a small, lizard-like creature with a distinctive red tail.
