Fire Spin has a power of 15 and an accuracy of 70. Fire Spin inflicts damage and traps the target for 2-5 turns, damaging the target at the end of each turn. There is a 37.5% chance that it will attack for 2 turns, a 37.5% chance that it will attack for 3 turns, a 12.5% chance that it will attack for 4 turns, and a 12.5% chance that it will attack for 5 turns. Although only the first hit can be a [[critical hit]], each consecutive turn will deal the same amount of damage. | Fire Spin has a power of 15 and an accuracy of 70.

While the target is trapped, it will be unable to attack, and if the user of Fire Spin strikes before the target, when used, the target will also be unable to attack during the same turn. | ||
Damage done by Fire Spin's continuing duration is done after recurrent damage. If the user switches out before the turn duration ends, the target will be unable to attack during that turn. If the target switches out before the turn duration ends, Fire Spin will automatically be used against the incoming Pokémon, deducting an additional PP from the move. If at such a time Fire Spin has 0 PP, Fire Spin will still be used against the incoming Pokémon. After that use, {{DL|List of glitches in Generation I|Struggle bypassing|the current PP of Fire Spin will roll over to 63}}, and full {{DL|Vitamin|PP Up}}s will be applied to it. | Damage done by Fire Spin's continuing duration is done after recurrent damage.
