Trivia


 * It's former counterparts were Aligatorch and Inferwolf. Crocoal and Puppifire have been replaced by this Pokemon.
 * Like it's pre-evolution, Pyrogeon, it resembles halycon. But, after evolving from Pyrogeon, none of its traits resembles pigeon anymore.

Origin Charaptor may be based on a falcon and a halycon. In addition, it is anatomically similar to the white-throated magpie-jay. The coloration, however, resembles a cardinal's.

Name Origin Charaptor's name is deprived from "char" or "charcoal" and "raptor."
