Gold kept it afterwards and nicknamed it "Exbo" because his mom would always tell Gold that his bangs were exploding but that Cyndaquil's back actually explodes. Exbo evolved into a Quilava at the Goldenrod Daycare Center when Gold had to battle several strong Pokémon there thinking it was training, but was really training for the Pokémon in the Daycare. While Gold initially didn't think the job was so great, Exbo's evolution changed his mind. It joined its two comrades who had also evolved after its owner and Silver had recovered from their defeat at the Lake of Rage, soon evolved into its final stage, Typhlosion, battling Lugia at the Whirl Islands along with the two other starters, who also evolved.
