If its rage peaks, it becomes so hot that anything it touches will instantly go up in flames.
燃えさかる体毛をこすりあわせ、ばくふうを起こしてこうげきする大ワザを隠し持っている。


Trivia

  • The initial Japanese print run saw Typhlosion's attack damage listed as "60". This was eventually corrected to "60+", but not until late into the print run, making the erroneous version much more common.

Origin

Flame Burst is a move introduced in the Generation V Pokémon games that Typhlosion can learn via breeding, however the Japanese names are not the same, making this attack and the move unrelated. This card's English Pokédex entry comes from Pokémon Gold, whereas the Japanese entry comes from Pokémon Silver.
