Is Blaziken a better fire attacker than Charizard?
If it is, why Gamepress listed Charizard but not Blaziken as one of the top two fire type non-legendaries?

The top choices are listed if they are on the DPS-TDO efficient frontier; i.e., a Pokemon won't be listed if in every matchup there is a strictly better (non-Legendary) choice.
When fighting Grass-types and Bug-types, Charizard has higher TDO than Flareon and that's the sole reason why it got picked. In Blaziken's case, however, Flareon is always the better choice, therefore Blaziken did not make the cut. That said, it is definitely viable.
