Charmander in PokéBonk
Charmander is id 4 in the public file, a single Fire type, captureRate 45, BST 309. The flavor line says it is born with a flame on the tip of its tail and would die if that flame went out. I am quoting the Spanish file in translation and leaving the stat block in the author’s numbers.
The line in the file
Charmander is 39/52/43/60/50/65. Charmeleon (id 5) is 58/64/58/80/65/80, BST 405, evoFrom 4, evoLevel 16, trigger level-up. Charizard (id 6) adds Flying, 78/84/78/109/85/100, BST 534, evoFrom 5, evoLevel 36. Speed is the stat that separates this line from Bulbasaur on the sheet. That is a dex fact. It is not a timed clear.
In a run
The in-run formula puts the first evolution at 24 and Charizard’s final stage at 44, not at the file’s 36. Charizard adds Flying to Fire, changing defensive matchups but not automatically adding a Flying move to the line’s kit. Two Rock weaknesses multiply to 1.8225 before the shared function caps them at 1.8; incoming damage applies its own 1.6 ceiling.
Blaze grants +10% Fire damage and +40% damage below 40% HP. The official kit is Ember, Fire Spin, Flamethrower and Fire Blast: a focused Fire kit rather than broad type coverage. Its low-HP bonus is not damage protection. The complete source learnset and untested build planning appear below; no Mega form or future release is promised.

Build planning from the official kit
The Charmander League line uses Ember, Fire Spin, Flamethrower, Fire Blast. Its passive key is blaze. This is the curated kit, not a promise that every source-learnset move appears in a run.
Type-only defensive weaknesses: Ground 1.35×; Rock 1.35×; Water 1.35×. These are calculated before abilities, armor, items and the incoming-damage clamp. Use the matchup calculator for a particular enemy; use the Lab calculator to budget permanent upgrades. This is untested build planning, not a claimed clear or measured DPS build.
