What is a good fire type for Pokemon Y?

I am soft resetting for a Shiny Chespin, so I have my grass type, I am fishing for a Magikarp, so that will be my Water type, but I’d like to have a Fire type on my team. I want it fairly early on in the game, and I want it to be useful throughout the whole game. I am not opposed to fire types from other regions (Torchic, Darumaka, Etc.) or even just from X (Houndour). But I’d like to avoid Charizard, since he is far from my favorite fire type or even Pokemon in general.

UpdateSo far I have narrowed it down to either Cyndaquil or Fletchling. If I could get some logic for choosing between the two, that would be great. My team so far consists of Chesnaught, Gyrados, Sylveon, Ampharos/Raichu (Can’t decide), and Golurk (If I don’t end up using Fletchling) If you could help me decide down below, that would be a great help. Thanks!

The most recent fire type you can get is Litleo.Even though I’ve never used him, when he evolves he’ll be pretty powerful by taking down Viola, Ramos, Wulfric, and Wikstrom with just flamethrower. Plus you can get him very early in the game, right before the first gym!

Hope I helped!
