Flareon is the result of an Eevee being exposed to a Fire Stone. Out of the seven known Eeveelutions, Flareon bears the closest resemblance to Eevee, (Its shiny sprite looks even more like Eevee, just larger and with much more fur.)
Flareon's body is covered in red fur. Flareon has a large, bushy tail, fluffy collar and a tuft of fur on its head; all of which are yellow. The paw pads on its feet are also yellow. Flareon has a very high internal body temperature.
Gender differences
None.
Special abilities
Flareon is capable of using physical attacks just as well as its special attacks due to its high Attack stat. Flareon can use most of the moves that Eevee is capable of using, but it can also shoot powerful flames that have been known to reach a maximum of 3,100°F. Due to the fact that Flareon is fully evolved, it can learn both Hyper Beam and Giga Impact.
Behavior
Flareon fluffs out its fur collar to cool down its body temperature, which can reach 1,650 degrees.
A Flareon belonging to Ursula appeared in DP174 where it evolved from Eevee. It also appeared in DP175 where it was used in the first battle round of the Sinnoh Grand Festival, along with Gabite, against Dawn.
Flareon's fluffy fur has a functional purpose - it releases heat into the air so that its body does not get excessively hot. This Pokémon's body temperature can rise to a maximum of 1,650 degrees F.

Flareon is the only Eeveelution so far to have a type advantage over two of its fellow Eeveelutions (Leafeon and Glaceon share a weakness to Fire).
Dispite that, it's been long regarded the worst Eeveelution due to its limited physical movepool combined with it high Atack stat.
As of Generation IV, Flareon is the only fully-evolved Template:Type2 Pokémon that cannot learn SolarBeam and the only non-legendary Fire-type Pokémon that can learn Rain Dance.
Flareon's name is derived from flare. The -eon suffix, common to all Eeveeevolutions, comes from Eevee's prototype English name and possibly refers to the ending suffix of evolution itself. Its Japanese name may refer to rocket boosters, which propel things by combustion of fuel.
In other languages
German: Flamara - From Flamme (flame). Ends with -a like every Eeveelution in German.
French: Pyroli - From pyro. Ends with -li like every Eeveelution in French.
