Pokdex definition According to the Pokdex, this soft, feathery pokmon who "sticks with its Trainer", "keeps its flame ..in.. a place inside its body" which makes it give warm hugs in the most literal sense of the words. It "breathes fire of over 1,800 degrees F 982C... that leaves the foe scorched black." Name Origin The name Torchic comes from a combination of the words torch and chick (or baby chicken). In-game details Picking this Pokmon as a starter is categorized as choosing a "Medium-Hard" difficulty level because the first gym leader uses pokmon whose type is very resistant to Torchic's firey moves. However, Torchic is the only Fire-type Pokmon available between Littleroot Town (where trainers receive it) and Firey Path. Plus, the third gym leader (which is before Firey Path) uses some steel-type Pokmon which are easily beaten by fire-type attacks. This Pokmon can learn some moves bird pokmon learn, like peck. However, as it evolves into a Fighting-type Pokmon it doesn't learn any more similar attacks. In the anime In the Pokmon anime, May chose Torchic as her starter because she considered it to be cute. Her young Torchic is very playful and fun, even though it's not her strongest battle Pokmon.
