Flareon (ブースター, Būsutā?, Booster), known as the Flame Pokémon. Flareon is the result of an Eevee being exposed to a Fire Stone. Flareon's body is covered in red fur. Flareon has a large, bushy tail, fluffy collar and a tuft of fur on its head; all of which are yellow. Flareon has a flame sac in its body, and can also shoot powerful flames that have been known to reach a maximum of 3,100 degrees Fahrenheit. Flareon fluffs out its fur collar to cool down its body temperature, which can reach 1,650 degrees.
Flareon first appeared in the anime in The Battling Eevee Brothers, under the ownership of Pyro. Flareon was seen under the ownership of one of the Kimono Sisters in Trouble's Brewing and Espeon Not Included. A Fire Pokémon trainer named Egan used one to capture a Magcargo in Some Like it Hot. A Pokémon Coordinator, Savannah, that was going to enter the Rustboro City Pokémon Contest has a Flareon, which appeared in A Fan with a Plan. In the Pokémon Adventures manga, Red temporarily controls a Flareon, which is actually his Eevee switching between its evolved forms.
A GamesRadar staff member stated that there were better Fire type Pokémon to choose from than Flareon, a sentiment another GamesRadar staff member shared.
