Why is Ash's Charizard so disobedient?

Ash's Charizard was disobedient due to a mix of past trauma from being abandoned by its original trainer, Damian (creating fear of weakness/abandonment), evolving rapidly into a powerful Pokémon that viewed inexperienced Ash as unworthy, and the anime's nod to the game mechanic where high-level Pokémon disobey. This led Charizard to only listen when it felt like fighting strong opponents, not weak ones, and its ultimate loyalty was earned through Ash nursing it back to health after a severe injury.
