the chars ROCK!! 1.Charmander charmeleon & charizard can be used in any deck becuase you can use scratch can do 10 damage for one anything. Slash 30 damage for three anythings and charizard has energy burn. 2.charizard has resistance to fighting the most comonly used types and 120 hp and is one of the 3 pokemon that can do 240 damage. 3.charmander and meleon has 1 retreat cost. 4.charmander has 50hp (great for a basic) charmeleon has 80hp (about average) charizard has 120hp (best in the game for any pokemon) 5.charmander and charmeleon can both do 30 charmander for 2 discard 1 and charmeleon for 3 this is my opinion so e-mail me at Kyleschu@aol.com with yours
