For a long time, Charizards have been rated very low, in term of
usefulness.  They drain you of energy, are slow, and/or random, but I
have found a way to make all charizards useful.  By combining any
charizard with the Fire Recharge typhlosion, you can create an energy
efficient and powerful combo, and I'm not just saying this is an okay
strategy.  My best deck, along with the right support cards, is centered
around a combo of Blaine's Charizard and Typhlosion.  Use a charizard's
attack, and on your next turn get some of the enrgy back with Fire
Recharge, then attach an energy from your hand, if necisary, and
attack.  The combo becomes even more efficient if you use two
typhlosions and employ pokemon breeders.  Plus, if you get in a jam you
can quickly power up one of your Typhlosions to take out a sneasel in
one hit.  There you have it.
