Fusion Flare on Legendary Pokémon MoveDex Fusion Flare on Eevee's Movedex

Fusion Flare (Japanese: クロスフレイム Cross Flame) is a damage-dealing Fire-type move introduced in Generation V. It is the signature move of Reshiram and White Kyurem.

Effect

Fusion Flare inflicts damage. The base power of Fusion Flare will double if another Pokémon uses Fusion Bolt or Bolt Strike immediately before the Pokémon using Fusion Flare, but only during that use. Likewise, it will double the power of Fusion Bolt if Fusion Flare is used immediately before the Pokémon using Fusion Bolt, during that use. When Fusion Bolt or Bolt Strike is used before this move, or a Critical hit is made, this move's animation changes. If the user is frozen, Fusion Flare will thaw it.

Description

Games Description BWB2W2 The user brings down a giant flame. This attack does greater damage when influenced by an enormous thunderbolt.
