Chimchar is a minor character that was introduced in Episode 10 of Starter Squad. He was meant to be a replacement for Charmander.

Why He Sucks

 * 1) He is nothing but a rehash of Charmander meant to be a replacement for him after he died in Episode 9, as he shares the same personality as him, murders innocent Pokemon and only wants to evolve.
 * 2) He disrespects Squirtle, who wants him to be stronger as Squirtle has been training Pokemon during the 10 years before the events. Even after Squirtle evolved to Wartortle, he still cared for Chimchar and later went up the mountain to the gods to revive him.
 * 3) He also starts fights for no reason, such as when he fought multiple Bidoofs after destroying their houses.
 * 4) Unlike Charmander, who has redeemed himself after realizing Squirtle was helping him in which he resulted to fighting off various Caterpie to save him in Episode 9. Which was why Charmander for the most part killed various Caterpie (It doesn't excuse the earlier kills). Chimchar on the other hand murders innocent Pokemon for no reason, other than gaining HP.
 * 5) His character was rather poorly introduced, as he was only on-screen for the first 3-4 minutes and then disappearing altogether after that. Later on throughout the episode, he was revealed to be killed off-screen by the Giant Abomasnow by being frozen to death. Making the introduction pointless.
 * 6) Overall, he was just a pointless character just to replace a existing character that was written off the show.

Redeeming Quality

 * 1) Jess Floam does a good job voicing him.
