Diamond and Pearl already expanded on a Trainer’s Pokémon by giving certain ones more personality. But none can match the Fire-type Sinnoh starter that centered on the rivalry between Ash and Paul. This Pokémon is a truly dynamic character based on its progression throughout the series.

Viewers that scrutinized Paul’s training skills should have noticed how much higher Chimchar’s standards were compared to the rest of Paul’s Pokémon. Throughout the first DP season, whenever Paul battled, he sent Chimchar against Pokémon where it would be easily deemed a mismatch.
