>Charmander is reminiscing us of the pre historical era with the shadows on the walls as if they were cave paintings, charmeleon looks like a lizard + sauroluphus thanks to its horn but also to the velociraptor with how it acts angry, savage and how it looks too. Then what if Charizard was a prehistorical beast too? In the pterosaurs family these species could fly and run, the dimorphodon's head and tail looks like Charizard, and the pteranodon reminds us of the early Charizard with its single horn. Pteranodons are said to have gender differences and what changed? The horn. A female and male pteranodons are said to have different horns, just like the GSC leaked sprite of charizard, male have two horns and females have one horn. This could explain the lack of dragon type, Charizard was first designed as a dinosaur gaining wings and the air superiority just like a Pteranodon (notice how it looks so similar to ptera) and later also designed to look like a dragon but didn't get said type.
>Let's talk about its megas. Kalos is home of the megas, Kalos is based off France, in France there's a legend that goes from Franche Compté to Swiss and which is well known by the people living there, the Vouivre (Wyvern) it's a monster which possess a snake like body and bat like wings projecting such a powerful light it looks like the monster is on fire. The legend apparently comes from fossils found in the region, recalling once again dinosaurs.
>Mega Zard Y is a continuation of Charizard and looks even more prehistorical with its damaged wings, even more slender body and a new prominent horn.
