How to get a Charmander in Pear Version?
Trade with a friend.
Charmander doesn't appear in the wild in Pokémon Pearl unless you cheat or hack the game. To get a Charmander in Pokémon Pearl, beat the game and migrate one from Pokémon FireRed, LeafGreen, Ruby, Sapphire or Emerald, or get the National Pokédex and have a friend trade his/her Charmander.

It is impossible to obtain Charmander in Pearl without migrating or trading it; you can also cheat. But I am NOT telling you how to do it; I myself HATE cheating because there is no fun or glory in it.
