On the side of its body, right before the start of its legs, it has circular orange patches, counting four altogether. It also has an orange patch right on its forehead, in the shape of a downwards triangle. Two small blue horns grow throughout its life on the tip of its head. It has a short and wide orange nose on its snout. Kiddles have two round blue eyes. When a strong bond is developed between this Pokémon and its trainer, the Pokémon's eyes are said to sparkle, with a flame-like intensity.

Kiddle can be found in small plains and grasslands, near mountains. Having a very obedient nature, Kiddle is a very popular Pokémon among new trainers, and often younger ones. It is also said that its body has an internal flame burning, giving it energy. This myth originated from the fact that Kiddles have very warm and comforting bodies.

Origin
Charmander appears to be predominantly in origin, and may have been partially inspired by the mythical  (as opposed to the real-world amphibian of the same name which inspired its mythical counterpart). This salamander was a fire-spirit capable of surviving in extreme heat or flames, and it is sometimes creatively rendered or interpreted in the shape of a lizard.

Physically, Charmander has a slender body, a short nose, and a long tail, as well as other lizard-like characteristics. The fact that it does not undergo a metamorphosis stage (beyond its own evolutionary pattern) but instead grows into a larger version of itself as it matures, among other things, indicate that Charmander has more in common with reptiles (such as lizards) than with amphibians (such as real-world salamanders).

Charmander's Hidden Ability,, may have drawn inspiration from the. In July and August 2010, this species was identified as the first known vertebrate animal, capable of converting energy from sunlight.
