Monferno

Monferno (Japanese: モウカザル, Hepburn: Moukazaru) (mon-FERN-oh^[1]) is a Fire/Fighting-type Pokémon.

Biology

Physiology

Monferno appears to be an orange chimpanzee with a flame at the tip of its tail much like Charmander and its evolutions. It also possesses beige coloring on its belly, hands, feet, mouth, and ears. Monferno also has blue and red markings on its face along with small fangs, and a patch of red at the base of its tail.

Behavior

Like Chimchar, Monferno love to play around. However, they have become much more perceptive of the situations they are in and have learned to handle themselves more seriously in battle. Monferno are adept fighters, using both their flames and fists to defeat opponents. They can take advantage of their environments to the fullest extent, jumping off of walls and ceilings to attack foes aerially from unexpected angles. By enlarging the flames on their tails, Monferno can make themselves appear bigger to intimidate attackers. They also use this technique for spacing, warding foes off by making their flames bigger or drawing them closer by feigning exhaustion and weakening their fires. In the wild, Monferno live in packs of roughly a dozen members each with rigid pecking orders. Individuals are ranked based on the sizes of their flames when fully lit and the brightness of the blue “masks” on their faces; Monferno with the largest flames and the brightest masks are ranked the highest. Monferno in troops train each other by sparring in mock fights.

Natural abilities

A Monferno with Blaze's Fire-type moves increase by 30% when it is low on HP. A Monferno with Iron Fist's punching moves are increased by 20%.

Evolution

Monferno is the evolved form of Chimchar as of level 14. Monferno evolves into Infernape at level 36.

Trivia

• Monferno's flame on its tail dims when it is unwell.
• Monferno, along with Chimchar and Infernape, are the first monkey-like Pokémon to be of a type, being primarily Fire-Type, other than Fighting and Normal-Type.

Origin

Monferno appears to be based on a monkey. Its coloration and facial markings make it similar to the golden snub-nosed monkey. Its pose in its 3D models and it gaining the fighting-type may be based on Monkey Kung Fu, a fighting technique that uses monkey-like movement.

Etymology

Monferno comes from monkey and inferno.
