The burn condition (BRN) inflicts damage every turn and halves damage dealt by a Pokémon's [[physical move]]s (except Pokémon with the {{a|Guts}} Ability and {{m|Facade}} from Generation VI onward). In Generation I and from Generation VII onward, burn inflicts damage equal to 1/16 of its maximum HP every turn; from Generation II to VI, burn inflicts damage equal to 1/8 of its maximum HP every turn. Burn damage is halved if the Pokémon has the Ability {{a|Heatproof}}. In Generation V, Pokémon glow red while afflicted with burn.

Most moves which cause burn are {{type|Fire}} and burning the prime effect of {{m|Will-O-Wisp}}, however it also can be caused by the ability {{a|Flame Body}} or holding a [[Flame Orb]]. In Generations I and II, {{type|Fire}} Pokémon cannot be burned by Fire-type moves (but they can be burned by {{m|Tri Attack}} in Generation II). From Generation III onward, Fire-type Pokémon and Pokémon with the {{a|Water Veil}} or {{a|Water Bubble}} Ability cannot normally be burned. Pokémon with the Ability {{a|Heatproof}} will only lose half the HP each turn, while Pokémon with {{a|Magic Guard}} are immune to the HP loss (but still suffer from the attack drop). Pokémon with {{a|Flare Boost}} will have their {{stat|Special Attack}} increased when burned. A burn can be cured with the use of a [[Burn Heal]], [[Yago Berry]] ([[Generation III]] only), or a [[Rawst Berry]] ([[Ice Berry]] in [[Generation II]]).

In Generations I and II, burn damage is applied after the Pokémon takes its turn, but is skipped if the opponent faints during that turn. From Generation III onward, burn damage is applied after all Pokémon on the field have taken their turns (and there is no skipping).
