>>56847620Charizard is the poster boy for European fire-breathing dragons and Galar is based on Great Britain which is all about dragons and castles and other medieval topics. It's not really surprising they reused him in combination with the new gimmick instead of making a new design that did the same thing. Like, Dragapult is a dragon too but not the conventional European style one. Rather, the point of Dragapult and Haxorus being on his team is more so for the medieval weaponry (catapults/crossbows, axes), and why Aegislash is there as well (sword, shield). His team is really thematic all things considered. As for Typhlosion, I'd say Hisuian could go to Morty/ancestor/relative if/when they ever do another Johto revisit.
