Evolution

Abilities

Blaze

When this Pokémon has 1/3 or less of its HP remaining, its Fire-type moves inflict 1.5× as much regular damage.

Flash FireHidden

This Pokémon is immune to Fire-type moves. Once this Pokémon has been hit by a Fire move, its own Fire moves will inflict 1.5× as much damage until it leaves battle. This ability has no effect while the Pokémon is frozen. The Fire damage bonus is retained even if the Pokémon is frozen and thawed or the ability is lost or disabled. Fire moves will ignore this Pokémon's Substitute. This ability takes effect even on non-damaging moves, i.e. Will-O-Wisp.
