CARDEX BACKGROUND

The Pokémon’s story

Flareon holds considerable heat in the flame sac inside its body. When it inhales, the air heats up there before emerging as flames. Its silky fur releases some of this heat to prevent overheating. It also uses fire outside battle: after finding prey and Berries, it may cook them before eating. These Pokédex details show how fire shapes its anatomy, movements and feeding habits alike.

Background on the species in the video games; its forms and card versions may have appeared later.

A detail worth noticing

A deep breath from Flareon sometimes signals an attack, warns Pokémon Ultra Sun. Its internal sac can heat the air to around 1,700°C before it spits it out. The fur that releases heat therefore plays a vital role for this Fire-type Pokémon.
