PvE Analysis
The blazing pseudo-Dragon itself, Gigantamax Charizard has the safest position among the three Gigantamax Kanto starters. It battles for the crown with Gigantamax Cinderace thanks in part to the latter's higher Attack stat, but Gigantamax Charizard stays relevant with its Flying sub-typing, which makes it bulkier against select raids. Regardless, the damage output isn't huge between the two top Fire Type Gigantamax options, so it's still a very worthy investment.
Gigantamax Charizard is locked into having a Fire-type Max Attack. Dragon Breath is the recommended Fast Attack to pair with its G-Max Wildfire due to its 0.5s duration, enabling it to charge up the Max Meter more quickly than its other options.
Fire Spin can serve as a viable alternative for those who do not wish to use an Elite Fast TM on their Gigantamax Charizard. Charged Attacks are mostly irrelevant in challenging Max Battles, so do not worry too much about them.

- Dragon Breath still results in G-Max Wildfire and comes out faster than any of Gigantamax Charizard's moves, so that's the move here.
PvP Analysis
In PvP, Gigantamax Charizard is effectively no different from a normal Charizard, except without access to Return as a move option.
