Charmander

Charmander, was so always the one I go for because his final form was so badass, I mean you get a full on fire breathing dragon as a pet that beats having a big vegetable and an over-sized turtle. Plus in the card game Charizard was the most sought after card and still is, why I don't know. But anyway Charmander was my chose of starter all the way.
Oh in addition the images I drew from their original illustrations from their base cards, so that's their original cards as I figured that would be fun to do my own version for the cards.
