An applicable Fire-type move activates this Ability instead of damaging the Pokémon; its own Fire-type moves then receive a 50% boost until it switches out. In Generation VIII, the Ability can activate while the Pokémon is frozen. Outside battle, a lead holder increases the chance of applicable Fire-type encounters.
