Order Chimchar — free

Chimchar is a Fire-type Pokémon (National Dex #390) with a low stat total of 309. You can have one built for Scarlet & Violet, BDSP and Legends: Arceus, and every copy is generated through the same PKHeX legality engine Pokémon HOME uses on deposit.

Its best stat is Speed at 61, which makes it a balanced all-rounder. Attack and Special Attack sit close together, so it can run either a physical or a special set depending on what your team needs. When you order one here you pick the nature, EV spread, IVs and Tera type yourself, so you can build the exact spread the set calls for rather than breeding for it.

Defensively, Chimchar takes super-effective damage from Water, Ground, Rock. It resists Fire, Grass, Ice, Bug, Steel, Fairy. Its ability options are Blaze, Iron Fist, and you choose which one your copy carries.

Chimchar evolves into Monferno (14), Infernape (36). You can order any stage directly rather than raising it — useful when you want the final evolution at a specific level, or the pre-evolution with an egg move it can only learn early.

In-game, Chimchar has 26 recorded encounter locations across Scarlet & Violet (8), BDSP (15), Legends: Arceus (3) — listed in full below with levels, catchable marks and legal Poké Balls. Note that at least one encounter is shiny-locked in Scarlet & Violet, BDSP, Legends: Arceus, meaning it cannot be found shiny there no matter how long you hunt. A shiny Chimchar ordered here is built with a legal PID and Encryption Constant, so it passes the same checks a hunted one does.
