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

It evolves from Eevee via Fire Stone.

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

Behavior

Habitat

Urban Pokémon

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

Trivia

• Flareon's Attack stat is the highest of any Fire-type Pokémon, tied with Ho-Oh.
• Flareon shares the same species name as Charmeleon and Charizard, Moltres, and Infernape. They are all known as Flame Pokémon.

• In Generation I, Flareon's base Attack stat was the second highest available, at 130, tied with Kingler, Rhydon, and Machamp. It was surpassed only by Dragonite.
• As of Generation IV, Flareon is the only fully-evolved Fire-type Pokémon that cannot learn SolarBeam.
  • It's also the only non-legendary Fire-type Pokémon that can learn Rain Dance.
• All of its Pokédex entries either state the temperature of its flame or its body heat.

Origin

It has traits of foxes and lap dogs, such as the Pomeranian dog.

Name origin

Flareon's name is derived from flare and Eon, the prototypical name of Eevee, from which Flareon evolves. Its Japanese name may refer to rocket boosters, which propel things by combustion of fuel.
