Pokémon UNITE

In Pokémon UNITE, Flamethrower is Charizard's first move. It is obtained by evolving into Charmeleon at level 5 and upgrading Flame Burst into it instead of Fire Punch. The user attacks with a blast of fire while moving, damaging and burning enemies in a line. The user gains a small movement speed bonus if they hit. The burn lasts 4s and reduces enemy Attack by 5%. At level 11, its damage is increased.
