Flareon (Japanese: ブースター Booster) is a Template:Type2 Pokémon.

It evolves from Eevee when exposed to a Fire Stone.

Biology

Flareon is the result of an Eevee being exposed to a Fire Stone.

Physiology

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.

Habitat

Flareon are mainly found in hot places, but only rarely, as an Eevee needs to be exposed to a Fire Stone to evolve.

Major appearances

Flareon first appeared in The Battling Eevee Brothers, under the ownership of Pyro.

Flareon was seen under the ownership of the Kimono Sisters in Trouble's Brewing and Espeon Not Included.

A Fire Pokémon trainer named Egan used one to capture a Magcargo in Some Like it Hot.

A Pokémon Coordinator, Savannah, that was going to enter the Rustboro City Contest has a Flareon. This appeared in A Fan with a Plan and Cruisin' for a Losin'.

A Flareon belonging to Ursula appeared in Last Call, First Round! where it evolved from Eevee. It also appeared in Opposites Interact! where it was used in the first battle round of the Sinnoh Grand Festival, along with Gabite, against Dawn.

Minor appearances

Ash battled against a Flareon in the Pokémon League Entrance Exam in The Ultimate Test.

Flareon made a small cameo in the beginning of Giratina and the Sky Warrior together with an Eevee and the other six Eeveelutions.

Another one appeared in Old Rivals, New Tricks.

Pokédex entries

Episode Pokémon Source Entry
AG077 Flareon May's Pokédex Flareon, the Flame Pokémon. Flareon is the evolved form of Eevee. The air it inhales is ignited by a flame in its body and expelled as fire.
Episode Pokémon Source Entry
DP174 Flareon Dawn's Pokédex Flareon, the Flame Pokémon, and an evolved form of Eevee. It stores some of the air it breathes in its internal flame sac, which heats its body to over three thousand degrees.

In the manga

Pokémon Adventures

Red temporarily controlled a Flareon, which was actually his mutated Eevee switching between its evolved forms. Eventually, it ended up losing the ability after permanently evolving into an Espeon, which Red finds less a liability and more a relief from the pain that Team Rocket's experiments caused it.

Trivia

Origin

It is most likely based on foxes. It has traits of felines (especially lions) and lap dogs, such as the Pomeranian dog.

Name origin

Flareon's name is derived from flare. The -eon suffix, common to all Eevee evolutions, 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.
  • Korean: 부스터 Buseuta - Transliteration of booster.
  • Chinese (Taiwan): 火精靈 Huǒ Jīng Líng - Literally means "Fire Spirit". Ends with -精靈(spirit) like every Eeveelution in Chinese.
