'''Burn''' (BRN) (Japanese: '''やけど''' ''Burn'') is one of the five major [[status condition]]s in the [[Pokémon games]]. Generally, if a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} is burned, it will lose a set amount of {{stat|HP}} every turn, and its damage dealt by [[physical move]]s will be halved. The burn status is evidently associated closely with the {{t|Fire}} type, since most moves which can burn belong to this type, Pokémon of this type are immune to burns, and the Fire-type Pokémon exclusive Ability {{a|Flame Body}} has a chance to burn on contact.
