Blaze (Japanese: もうか Raging Flames) is an Ability introduced in Generation III. All Fire-type starter Pokémon have this Ability and all Pokémon that have this Ability are Fire types.
Effect
In battle
Generations III to IV
When a Pokémon with Blaze uses a Fire-type move, the move's power will be increased by 50% if the user has less than or equal to ⅓ of its maximum HP remaining.
Generations V onwards
Instead of boosting Fire-type moves' power, Blaze now technically boosts the Pokémon's Attack or Special Attack by 50% during damage calculation if a Fire-type move is being used, resulting in effectively the same effect.
Outside of battle
Blaze has no effect outside of battle.
