Learn about the Flame Body ability in Pokémon Diamond and Pearl. Discover which Pokémon have it and its effects on battle and egg hatching.

Pokémon with Flame Body:

  • Magmar
  • Slugma
  • Magcargo
  • Magby
  • Magmotar

In Battle Effect: When a Pokémon with the Flame Body ability is attacked by a Pokémon that has used a Physical attack, there is a 30% chance that the attacking Pokémon will be inflicted with the Burn status condition.

Out of Battle Effect: When a Pokémon with the Flame Body ability is in your party, it affects egg hatching. Specifically, it halves the number of steps required to hatch eggs.

Tips
  • Having a Pokémon with Flame Body in your party is highly recommended for quickly hatching eggs, especially if you are trying to hatch multiple eggs.
  • Consider teaching moves that inflict status conditions to Pokémon that don't have Flame Body if you need to apply Burns frequently in battle.
