The Charizard Effect (Ch-Ar-eh-zar-ed Effekt) is when two or more people are in a similar situation with similar odds, and one party is exceptionally fortunate in comparison. Common when entering new en devours.
Original Derivation:
--Scenario: Friend 1 and Friend 2 purchase their first Pokemon Booster Packs.
Friend 1: *Opens package* Dude! I got a holographic Charizard! In my first ever booster pack!
Friend 2: Sweet! *Opens package* I only got a Squirtle...that is just my luck.
Later to be coined - "The Charizard Effect"
