The ability to deal [[super effective]] damage against {{type|Steel}} Pokémon is very useful for Pokémon that specialize in [[special move]]s, as many Steel-type Pokémon typically have high Defense but a low {{stat|Special Defense}}. | ||
Although Fire types often have below average defensive stats, they often have good {{stat|Speed}} and high {{stat|Attack}} or {{stat|Special}} Attack stats, making them great offensive sweepers. Fire types also possess higher offensive stats compared to Ice and Rock types. Also, Fire-type moves are generally powerful, with around half of the type's damaging moves having 100 or more base [[power]]. | Although Fire types often have below average defensive stats, they often have good {{stat|Speed}} and high {{stat|Attack}} or {{stat|Special}} Attack stats, making them great offensive sweepers.

Revision as of 16:09, 5 October 2017
The Fire type (Japanese: ほのおタイプ Flame type) is one of the eighteen types. Notable Trainers who specialize in Fire-type Pokémon include Blaine of Cinnabar Island, Flannery of Lavaridge Town, Flint of the Sinnoh Elite Four, Chili of Striaton City, Malva of the Kalos Elite Four, and Kiawe of Paniola Town. Prior to changes in Generation IV, all damaging Fire-type moves were special, but they may now also be physical depending on the attack.

Characteristics
Defense
The Fire type has its pros and cons defensively. Ground, Rock, and Water moves are all commonly used offensively. Aside from Fairy, Ice, and the Fire type itself, the Fire type's resistances are of little use because the other types which it resists are typically not strong offensively. Most Fire-type Pokémon do not survive too long in battle due to their typically below average defensive stats. Additionally, very few Fire-type Pokémon have a secondary type that negates their weakness to Water-type attacks.
However, not only does the Fire type have six resistances, among them being key resistances to the powerful Ice and Fairy types, but it is also immune to burns, making Pokémon of this type key physical attackers. Also, most Fire types can at least learn Solar Beam to counter all three of the type's weaknesses, although it is not reliable outside of harsh sunlight due to its need to charge.
Offense
Offensively, Fire is very powerful as it is super effective against four types, tying it in amount with Ice and Rock. The ability to deal super effective damage against Steel-type Pokémon is very useful for Pokémon that specialize in special moves, as many Steel-type Pokémon typically have high Defense but a low Special Defense.
Although Fire types often have below average defensive stats, they often have good Speed and high Attack or Special Attack stats, making them great offensive sweepers. Fire types also possess higher offensive stats compared to Ice and Rock types. Also, Fire-type moves are generally powerful, with around half of the type's damaging moves having 100 or more base power.
During harsh sunlight or extremely harsh sunlight, the power of Fire-type attacks is increased by 50%. The power of Fire-type attacks is decreased by 50% during rain, while all Fire-type moves will fail during heavy rain. When Water Sport is in the effect, the power of Fire-type moves are decreased by 50%.
Contest properties
In Contests, Fire-type moves are typically Beautiful moves.
Pokémon
As of Generation VII, there are 67 Fire-type Pokémon or 8.4% of all Pokémon (counting those that are Fire-type in at least one of their forms, including Primal Reversion and Alola Forms), making it the 7th most common type.

In the TCG
- Main article: Fire (TCG)
Similar to the games, Fire-type Pokémon in the TCG are generally weak to Water with no resistances. Fire-type Pokémon are strong against Grass and Metal Pokémon, whilst Colorless Pokémon can resist this type.
Trivia
- Generation V introduced the most Fire-type Pokémon of any generation, with 17, and Generation IV introduced the fewest, with five.
- Generation V introduced the most Fire-type moves of any generation, with 11, and Generation VI introduced the fewest, with only one.
- In Pokémon Diamond and Pearl, there are only two evolutionary lines of Fire-type Pokémon in the Sinnoh Pokédex (the Chimchar and Ponyta evolutionary lines). In Pokémon Platinum, this was changed with the expansion of the Sinnoh Pokédex to include the Houndour and Magmar families, as well as Flareon.
- In the core series Pokémon games since Generation III, the Fire type has been represented by the color orange. However, in most other Pokémon media, including the Pokémon Trading Card Game, the Pokémon Stadium series, and the Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series, the Fire type has been associated with the color red.
- Also, the Cool condition uses the same shade of orange in its status screen icon as the Fire type's icon does, despite being described as red in-text.
- Similar to Ice-type moves, all Fire-type moves were Beautiful moves in Generation III.
- Generation III is the only generation so far not to have introduced a Fire-type move with the word "Fire" in its name.
- The Fire type is able to deal the highest type-based multiplier. This is possible in harsh sunlight against a Bug/Steel-type or Ice/Steel-type Pokémon with Fluffy that has been affected by Forest's Curse. This would result in a 24× multiplier.
- The effects of Flash Fire and Blaze can further boost this to a 36× power multiplier.
- It can also achieve the lowest non-zero type-based multiplier. This is possible in rain against a dual-type Pokémon whose both types resist Fire-type attacks, with Thick Fat or Heatproof while Water Sport is in effect. This would result in a 0.02065× multiplier.
