Clarissa's Infernape

Clarissa's Infernape is a Pokémon she obtained in Sinnoh.

​Sparks: Diamond & Pearl
Infernape is a brave Pokemon and the first one Clarissa obtained in Sinnoh. When The Sparks arrived in Sinnoh, Professor Rowan offered to let them stay the night in his lab, in which they accepted. There they met the three Sinnoh Starters Turtwig, Chimchar, and Piplup; However the Chimchar was shown to be very scared and afraid of everything. That night there was a thunderstorm and the Chimp Pokemon cried until Clarissa comforted it for the night. The next day when Clarissa, Mason, and Katrina were about to leave, Chimchar joined them on their journey with Clarissa.

Personality
While a Chimchar, Infernape was very shy and scaredy. It was not a fan of battling either until being shown by Charizard how fun it could be. Despite this it is very caring, defending Mason's Muchlax when in trouble. After evolving Monferno was more eager to battle and a lot more hyper. It would usually pop out of it's Pokeball when it saw an opponent. Finally when evolving into Infernape, his true power began to show.
