Is cubone just Charmander?

No, Cubone is not a Charmander, but a popular fan theory suggests Cubone is an orphaned Charmander whose mother died, preventing its tail flame from igniting, forcing it to wear its mother's skull for protection and develop differently. This theory explains Cubone's Ground typing (instead of Fire), its skull helmet, and its ability to learn Fire-type moves, linking it to the Charizard line, though official lore points to Cubone wearing its deceased mother's skull (likely a Marowak).

Why was Ash's Charizard disobedient?

Ash's Charizard was disobedient due to a combination of past trauma from his abusive former trainer (Damian), rapid evolution making him feel too strong for Ash's inexperienced training, and a resulting arrogance/inferiority complex where he saw Ash as unworthy. He didn't respect Ash's skill level and only obeyed when Ash proved his worth and caring nature, especially after Ash nursed him back to health following a near-fatal battle.

Why did Ash's Rowlet not evolve?

Ash's Rowlet didn't evolve in Pokémon Sun & Moon primarily because it accidentally swallowed an Everstone, a held item that prevents evolution, but also because the writers kept it as a cute, comedic relief Pokémon and it proved strong and useful without evolving, even mastering powerful moves like Seed Bomb. While it could have evolved in the Alola League, the Everstone (which it could use like a rock for attacks) stopped it, solidifying its role as a unique, non-evolving Alolan starter.

Ash's Charmeleon stopped listening because it evolved into a powerful Pokémon that saw Ash as a weak, unworthy trainer, a feeling reinforced when Ash tried to make it lose to a Paras to help it evolve, which Charmeleon saw as insulting. The official reasoning points to game mechanics (Ash not having enough badges for a high-level Pokémon) but the core issue was Charmeleon's pride and feeling disrespected by Ash's perceived lack of skill and care, leading it to only battle on its own terms.
