WIP
Chateclast
Chameleon + Pyrotechnic (related to fireworks, also works with ability) + Pyroclastic [Flows] (dangerous avalanches of burning ash) (Final result somewhat resembles Cataclysm, as a volcanic eruption is)
Pronounced: CAT - ECK - CLAST

Magmander
Magma (the obvious pick for Fire/Ground, being literally heat-molten rock) + Salamander (Fiery mythological lizard, as well as a type of generic lizard resembling the design)
Pronounced: mug-MAHN-der

Basaltisk
Pronunciation: BA-sul-tisk
IPA: <ˈbæsɪlɪsk>
Combining the words "basalt", volcanic matter, and "basilisk", the lizard monster, gets you a Pokemon's name that is simple like a starter's. However, unlike my other two subs, mispronouncing it makes it sound weird. BA-sul-tisk sounds much better than ba-SAL-tisk.

Velavaraptor
Velociraptor +Lava.
Turfuel
Turf + Fuel. I like this one better. Turf is a synonym for ground, and fuel is one element of the fire triangle required for fire to actually take place.

Magmoloch
"Magma" + "Moloch"
Pronounced: "Mag - Mol - Och"
One thing we don't get locally are lizards. Borrowed a friend from the antipodes for this one :P
(It's not as if Greninja's "Gre" makes much sense...)

WIP (2/3)
Vesuviguana
"Vesuvius" + "Iguana"
Pronounced: "Veh - Soo - Vee - Guar - Na"
Starter names do enjoy being ridiculously complex. A simple portmanteau of our favourite volcano, and a reasonably close lizard.

Actually that stems from 'grenouille' which is the French word for frog, especially given that Kalos is the European region in general. At least as far as I know, lol.
Also I admit to thinking of Iguana + Igneous, rip
WIP (2/3)
Scorchelos
Comes from 'scorch' and the genus 'chelosania' - host to the Chameleon dragon, a species of lizard native to Australia. Also it sounds pretty epic, at least to me. :)
Igneousaur
Igneous + Saur

(2/3)
Meltilisk
