Chimchar had the most unique ability of all the Pokemon seen in the show. It took its Blaze to an entirely new level. Now the moments include; When Paul first saw it get attacked by the Zangoose and it unleashed its power to defeat them all, in “Chim Charred” when it activated it for the first time in Ash’s care, when Monferno went berserk after getting blasted by Hydro Cannon, Infernape’s power up during the match with Volkner when it first controlled Blaze (though it could be argued that at the last moments of being Monferno it controlled Blaze in order to use that energy to evolve) or the climax during the match with Paul in the Sinnoh League.

I would cast my vote for Chimchar’s Blaze in “Chim-charred” that episode goes down in My Top 10 favorite episodes of the Pokemon series. It was so dramatic that I could hardly breathe. Chimchar went berserk and set a forest fire, almost hit Paul with Flame Wheel and was ganged up by all of the heroes Pokemon.

2nd place goes to the one during the final gym match because it was so dramatic showcasing that Infernape finally controlled Blaze rather than letting Blaze control it. Though it is tied with Monerno’s Blaze before it evolved. It remembered the promise of it and Ash getting stronger together and their bond helped it control its Blaze for the first time.

3rd goes to the final match Infernape vs. Electavire, because Infernape won it was the end of two rivalries; Ash and Paul, Infernape and Electavire. It was the cornerstone of Ash and Paul’s time with Chimchar in an effort to see who could bring out the best in the little chimp.

During Ash/Paul 1st full battle, it wasn’t Blaze but Monferno’s determination that activated a “pseudo-Blaze”

So, which one was your favorite?
 
I liked Monferno's Blaze before it evolved. It really showed the toll taken by all of Paul's abuse.
 
The episode "Chim-Charred" was the best blaze moment EVAR!!! I just love seeing a knee-height douche going absoloutely crazy after well, nothing!
 
vs Electivire. It reminds me of Vegeta's final flash. Or put lots of FALCON PAWNCH quotes in it.
 
The latest example - the Vs Electivire battle.
You just knew shit was about to go down for real and Infernape was ready to fling bring it.

Totally hardcore, man.
 
The Chim-charred one. The Blaze plot was still interesting at that point.
 
The animation was the best in the electivire battle but i liked the coll effect in the volkner battle.

The chim-charred one was also epic.
In the end i voted for the electivire one.
 
Vs. Electivire with Volkner close behind. Those were awesome battles and Infernape's Blaze was just plain amazing.
 
Animation-wise, Infernape vs. Electivire. One of the best battles ever.

I enjoy the Chim-Charred blaze, too because it showed Ash really did care for Chimmy. He bit Ash and was expecting to get scolded but Ash was just like, "You're so strong!" Such a sweet moment.

Monferno's blaze before evolving was pretty epic, too in how Ash was talking about the promise they made. And then it saved Electabuzz from being crushed to death and evolved.

In the end I voted for Infernape vs. Electivire since Infernape finally got Paul's approval.

Yeah, that is one of my favorite scenes because in Chim-Charred, Ash called for a Full Power Flame Wheel, and I really wanted to see Chimchar use a Full Power Flamethrower. Well we finally got to see it, but in the battle with Volkner, Infernape used Flamethrower twice, but not as intense as the one we saw against Electavire. All I could think about was DBZ right there!

If I read some of the translations right, Reggie said that this was the moment that Ash was waiting for the moment when Blaze would be activated. Electavire could have won, but it was too hardcore, “Bring it on, are you finished already?” that was kind of what it was saying to the extra crispy Infernape. Then it got up after Paul said his bit, and Infernape went Super Kaio-Ken on that Thunderbolt Pokemon haha!!

"Against the Zangoose" is my favorite...

When I first saw it, I wondered what happened to the Zangoose?!!?! I thought Chimchar liked killed them or something at first. Now I realize that it just might have knocked them far away or off the cliff.




P.S.-I didn’t add; Blaziken vs. Sceptile because this thread is only for Chimchar. I also omitted it using Blaze at Oreburg Gym. It was important because it highlighted Paul’s style of battling when it came with Chimchar.
 
I would say Volkners gym, but the Infernape VS Electivire battle was so good.
 
I just loved the Thunderpunch/Flare Blitz collision that created that blue/yellow cyclone of sere power!!

Now that is how Electabuzz and Monferno should have collided during their first full battle instead of Ash calling for Mach Punch! Thunderpunch and Flame Wheel going head to head. That would have been a good one. I could see Monferno winning the match and then activating Blaze against one of Paul's other 4 Pokemon. That would have made their first full battle one for the record books!
 
The first episode we got to see Hikozaru's past with Shinji... How it was caught, how it was treated, and going into such a rage that from just memories that it has a brief BSOD.

That episode was so heartberaking and tearjerking. I cried when I first watched it, not going to lie.

Now I know what I meant to say, Infernape's full power Flamethrower looked like SS4 Goku's 10x Kamehameha Wave!!

Anyway, are you referring to "Glory Blaze?" I'm not going to lie even I felt bad for Chimchar and not so much for Paul. Just the look on his face during their "training" and damaging Turtwig during the tag battle...that was one of the few moments when I myself wanted to punch Paul in the face. I mean if he wanted to get Blaze that bad why not teach Chimchar "Endure" and then go from there?
 
I think Chimchar vs. Usuring will always be my favorite. Straight up Super Saiayan-jin monkey!
