In the newest pokémon title,Pokémon Unite, players will need to strategize with their chosen Pokémon, like Charizard, to ensure they are handling the real-time combat well. As they will be competing in both one v one, and full horde style battles, players' engagement will need to be quick. Luckily, Charizard is the type that can be in any lane.

Charizard can be difficult to play early on though. He's not super tough but is great for attacking with. He is focused in at melee range and is quick to score a lot of points for any team. Though he tends to work the best with Pikachu, Ninetails, and Snorlax.
The Best Move Set for Charizard in Pokémon Unite
As a party's all-rounder, solo or combined with a partner, Charizard's main focus will be to score and damage. Displacement is another big aspect of having the Charizard in a party. He also will have his passive ability, Blaze, which will increase his critical chance when his health is below 50%. Keeping that in mind, these are the available moves players can get with Charizard.
- Flame Burst- (Base Special Ability. Can be upgraded at level five.) - A short-ranged Flame attack that burns the target.
- Flamethrower- (Flame Burst Upgrade. Can be upgraded at level 11.) - A boosted version of Flame Burst. Upgrading will increase the damage dealt further.
- Fire Punch- (Flame Burst Upgrade. Can be upgraded at level 11.) - Turns Flame Burst into a melee attack and pushes enemy pokémon back.
- Fire Spin(Second Special Ability. Can be upgraded at level seven.) - AOE flame attack that slows enemies within the area.
- Flame Blast(Fire Spin Upgrade. Can be upgraded further at level 13.) - Boosted version of the Flame Spin. Upgrading will increase the damage even further.
- Flare Blitz(Fire Spin Upgrade. Can be upgraded further at level 13.) - Creates a shield of flame around Charizard before he flies headlong into enemies to burn them. When upgraded, this ability will also decrease the movement speed of the targeted pokémon for a short period of time.
- Seismic Slam(Pokémon Unite Ability, available at level nine.) - Charizard flies high to rain down fireballs before grabbing his opponent and throwing them to the ground.
With all this, players can make a few decisions when building up their Charizard. For a more attack-heavy focused Charizard, players should grab the Flamethrower and Flame Blast move upgrades. However, this makes them much weaker to attacks than the other available options, so players will want to have a support Pokémon travel with them closely. For a more well-rounded Charizard, players should try taking Flamethrower and Flare Blitz. This will make them more range-focused though, so for a more headlong melee Charizard, switch out Flamethrower with Fire Punch.
The Best Items to Equip Charizard with in Pokémon Unite
The next thing players should consider when building up their Charizard in Pokémon Unite is what they should equip them with. Depending on the build of Charizard, different items may be more optimal than others. However, overall, Charizard lacks any support and will need some help in that area, especially if they don't have a support member in their team.
- Scope Lens- (Held Item) Creates more powerful critical hits.
- Shell Bell- (Held Item)Special Attacks will heal Charizard.
- Score Shield- (Held Item) Creates a shield around Charizard when he is scoring.
- Energy Amplifier-(Held Item) Increases damage after a Unite move.
- X Attack- (Battle Item) Temporarily increases basic and special attacks.
- Goal-Getter- (Battle Item) Temporarily quickens the rate of scoring.
While these are all great options, there are plenty of alternatives. For held items, players should also consider the Focus Band, Attack Weight, Special Attack Specs, and Rocky Helmet. For battle items, players should consider Slow Smoke and Eject Button for alternatives.
