Adam's Infernape

This Infernape is a Fire/Fighting-type Pokémon owned by Adam Ordeis.

He was originally Cross's Pokémon as a Chimchar, but with Cross later abandoning him after deeming him to be nothing more than a weakling, Adam subsequently stepped in and offered Chimchar a chance to join his team, with Chimchar accepting.

Under Adam's care, Chimchar evolved into Monferno and later Infernape while also helping Adam win many key battles in terms of Gym battles in Sinnoh or fights against other rival trainers as well as Team Rocket.

## Personality

Infernape, as a Chimchar, was usually a very sweet and kind Pokémon, until Blaze was activated and he went on a rampage, ignoring everything and everyone around him, attacking everyone around forcing Adam to personally stop Chimchar until he could calm down.

He was also afraid of Zangoose since he was attacked by them, and had very low self-esteem, as Cross often scolded him for being unable to meet his expectations and didn't allow him to show any emotions outside of anger and ferocity, and as a result, he was afraid of being punished or yelled at for letting his trainer down, and this was also briefly extended towards Adam until he understood that it was a yell of concern.

After he joined Adam's team, Chimchar had difficulty in settling in due to everyone, Pokémon included, always helped each other without hostility.

At first, after losing a training battle, he believed he was going to get scolded, but everyone complimented him, causing him to burst into tears of happiness, and due to his new trainer Adam, he managed to get over his fear of Zangoose.

Adam always had great trust in Chimchar, using him in several important battles, and it was repaid when the Chimp Pokémon won them for his trainer, whose training methods worked perfectly for him.

Every time Chimchar saw Cross, he would get really fired up and determined to defeat him in battle no matter what.

He always want Cross to understand that he isn't a weakling.

Chimchar never gives up in battle, which is a trait that it carried with him as he evolved into Monferno, and then into Infernape.

Infernape is quite the feisty Pokémon and, in his current stage, is always looking for someone to battle and some new way to boost his skills.

His personality almost completely matches Adam, which is why these two are a perfect match for one another.

He still retains some of his childlike personality from when he was a Chimchar, and, like when he was a Chimchar, always takes any advice and motivation it receives, even from his enemies, such as Meowth.

He is also very friendly to other Pokémon as one of his best friends is Eve's Piplup.

Infernape is an adapted battler similar to Eve's Blaziken when using his fighting techniques such as his Mach Punch.

His journey and training under Adam has turned Infernape into a truly powerful battler, being able to easily defeat Jolteon with a single Mach Punch and take out many members of Eve's team.

Thanks to his Blaze Ability, Infernape becomes even more powerful in battle, which was the reason his Flare Blitz was powerful enough to knock out Cross's Electivire despite already having taken so much damage.
