It is a relief to hear that the beginning of all this did not start with Red's negligence. However it remains disappointing that it was still out of reckless ignorance, but I can hardly say I am surprised. I am going to be very frank with you, Sasha, because the gravity of the situation demands nothing less.
This is not Kanto.
There are people here that have never heard of Pokemon before they set foot in this city. Dragons and the like might just be myths for these people. Even if this was Kanto, using a scare tactic with the intention of intimidation and frightening someone off is generally received as a threat. You were hoping, since humans are just as much as animals as any other, that he would choose flight. Unfortunately for all those involved, he chose fight.
Why didn't the other ask questions? Because his lover was threatened. You did not intend to harm Raikov, but you still forced him to take action, and seeing that he was made to draw a weapon was obviously enough. While leaping to a conclusion was also a fault, it comes as no surprise when there is a clash of cultures. You naturally look intimidating. Volgin was acting no different than Vinnie in this regard.
The only thing that separates animals, humans and Pokemon is the way we choose to act. You became angry because he called you an animal, and yet you chose to prove his point. Charizards have a troublesome reputation, and all you have done is strengthen that negativity. Instead of walking away, you've further compromised the relationships between all of the Pokemon in this school and their non-Pokemon peers.
I cannot be angry at Vinnie for coming to his family's defense. If I ever hear about his other tussle with Volgin, however, that will be a different story.
Charizards are stubborn, irritable and hot-headed. Not to the extremes of a Charmeleon, but it is still notable. I have yet to meet one that had a favorable attitude.
