Flareon (Japanese: ブースター Booster) is a Fire-type Pokémon.

It evolves from Eevee by Fire Stone.

Contents

Biology

Physiology

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. 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.

Gender differences

None.

Special abilities

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 degrees Fahrenheit. Due to the fact that Flareon is fully evolved, it can learn either Hyper Beam or Giga Impact.

Behavior

Habitat

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