Editing Fire (element)

In ''[[Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars]]'' and [[Super Mario RPG (Nintendo Switch)|its remake]], fire is one of the four elements assigned to Special attacks, alongside [[Jump#Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars|Jump]], [[Ice (element)|Ice]], and [[Lightning (element)|Lightning]]. [[Fire Bomb]] and [[Mario]]'s [[Fireball#Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars|Fireball]], [[Super Fireball]] and [[Ultra Fireball]] are designated with the fire element. Attacking enemies or bosses weak to fire will deal twice the damage; conversely, attacking enemies and bosses who are resistant to it will have no effect and inflict 0 damage instead.

Some enemy attacks are also affiliated with the fire element ([[Flare|Corona/Flare]], [[Hot Shot|Drain/Hot Shot]], [[Flame (move)|Flame]], [[Flame Stone]], [[Flame Wall]], and [[Fire Saber|Mega Drain/Fire Saber]]), and can be negated with the [[Lazy Shell]] or [[Super Suit]]. In the remake, using Mallow's [[Thought Peek]] will reveal the targeted enemy's weaknesses, including fire. The [[Clown Car Barrage]] [[Triple Move]] deals additional damage to enemies that are weak to either fire, ice, or lightning, ignoring any resistance that they could also possess to these elements.

In ''[[Paper Mario]]'', fire is an element given to the [[Fire Flower]] item and [[Kooper]]'s [[Fire Shell]]. Some enemies are weak to fire, meaning that they will receive flat additional damage on top of the attack, or immune, which will negate the attack entirely and inflict 0 damage instead. Other enemies, like [[Bob-omb]]s, will be instantaneously defeated if attacked with the fire element.

Some enemies are associated with the fire element, visually represented by them being engulfed with flames. Attacking these enemies with Mario's Jump attacks or partner attacks that make direct contact with the enemy (minus Kooper's attacks and [[Parakarry]]'s [[Shell Shot]]) will be negated, and the attacker will receive 1 damage instead. These enemies are weak against [[Ice (element)|ice]] and [[Water (element)|water]] attacks, and in some cases ([[Lava Piranha]] and its [[Lava Bud]]s' second phase) will momentarily be extinguished by them and lose their fire element. They also include [[Pyro Guy]]s, [[Lava Bubble]]s, [[Petit Piranha]]s, and [[Ember]]s.

The way fire is handled is changed in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'' and its [[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door (Nintendo Switch)|remake]] in several ways. The [[Fire Shield]] badge has been removed, with its effect being fused with the [[Ice Power]] badge instead, which now gives Mario a +1 bonus in both attack and defense against fire-based  enemies, namely [[Ember]]s, [[Lava Bubble]]s, and [[Phantom Ember]]s, on top of the fireproof Jump attacks. These specific enemies are now healed by the amount of damage they were supposed to receive from a fire attack instead of being immune to them. [[Buzzy Beetle]]s and their variants are now immune to fire in all circumstances, even after being flipped. In the remake, attacking enemies that are immune to fire with this element displays a special icon denoting their immunity. Invincible enemies, such as [[The Iron Adonis Twins]], [[Grodus]] with a [[Grodus X|shield]], or the [[Shadow Queen]] at the start of her second phase, are also redundantly immune to fire.

Attacks with the fire element in this game include the [[Fire Flower]] item, [[Vivian]]'s [[Fiery Jinx]], and Mario's [[Fire Drive]] if the associated badge is equipped. The game also introduces the [[burn]] status effect: any attack with the fire element can inflict the burn status to its target, which will inflict 1 [[Piercing attack|piercing]] fire damage to them at the end of each turn for a set number of turns; if the target is [[frozen]], the two statuses will immediately cancel each other and return the target to its normal state. This also includes Vivian's [[Shade Fist]], which is not a fire attack, but specifically a normal attack which inflicts burn on the target. The stage nozzle hazard can deal 1 piercing fire damage to one side of the [[Stage (Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door)|stage]] as one of its random effect if they are knocked down.

[[Bulky Bob-omb]]s and [[Bob-ulk]]s hit with any fire attack or burn status effect will immediately detonate, dealing [[Explosion (element)|explosion]] damage to all characters on the stage, enemies and allies alike. [[Dry Bones]] and their [[Red Bones]] and [[Dark Bones]] variants will be permanently removed from the fight if they are defeated with a fire attack, or if their corpse receives fire damage before they resurrect. Non-fire enemies with fire attacks include [[Fire Bro]] and [[Grodus]], though the former is still weak to the ice element. Other enemies such as [[Hooktail]], [[Bowser]], and Vivian as a member of the [[Three Shadows]], have attacks that are cosmetically fire-related, but cannot inflict the burn status.

[[Ice (element)|ice]]-themed and [[Wood (element)|plant]]-themed [[Folded Soldiers]]. Conversely, attacking a fire-themed enemy with a fire attack will only deal them half of the normal damage. In addition, [[Buzzy Beetle]]s are immune to the fire element.

Fire attacks include the [[Fire Hammer]] and the [[Fire Flower]] and its [[Shiny Fire Flower|Shiny]] variant, which target a nearby 2x2 zone and a straight line respectively, as well as [[Bowser]]'s [[Fire Breath]] when he is available as a [[Party member|partner]]. The [[Fire Vellumental]] does not deal fire damage and is not weak against ice attacks.

In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'', fire is one of the game's main elements, here called [[Firebrand]], alongside the [[Lightning (element)|lightning element]], here called [[Thunderhand]]. It is the [[Hand Power]] associated with Mario, which allows him to perform a [[Dash (Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga)|Dash]] in the overworld and the [[Fire Bros. (move)|Fire Bros.]] [[Bros. Attack]] as well as its [[Super Attack|Advanced version]] in battle.

 

Some enemies can be weak to fire, which deals more damage to them as a Critical hit, or be immune to it and absorb the attacks to heal themselves. Others can be resistant to Hand Powers, turning any fire attack into a flat 1 damage. This is independent from the Critical and Heal effects and can be added to them, effectively dealing 2 damage and healing 1 HP respectively. This is changed in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions]]'', which only reduces the attacks' power instead, is not cumulative with other effectivenesses, and is applied to each element separately rather than both.

Enemies hit with a fire attack can receive the [[burn]] status effect. Only enemies can be affected by it. In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions]]'', the [[Super Attack|Advanced version]] of [[Fire Bros. (move)|Fire Bros.]] can inflict "[[char]]" on the enemies, a more harmful status previously introduced in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Dream Team]]'', instead.

The ''[[Minion Quest: The Search for Bowser]]'' campaign does not have a universal fire element attached to all its fire attacks and characters. However, [[Fuzzbush]]es and [[Pokey]]s are described as "flammable" and are weak to [[Fire Bro]]s. and [[Fire Stalking Piranha Plant]]s specifically, while Fire Bros. are themselves weak to [[Ice Bro]]s.

Ennemies with fire attacks that can inflict the [[burn]] status on the brothers include [[Magmad]]s, [[Flaming Antasmaton]]s, and [[Fire Bro]]s. The game also introduces the "[[char]]" status effect, a more severe version of burn.

In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', [[Spirit (Super Smash Bros. Ultimate)|spirits]] serve a similar role to stickers, altering their associated character's attributes. In that game, flame and [[Dark (element)|darkness]] attacks are affected by the same spirits. The [[Dry Bowser]], [[Don Bongo]], and [[Fury Bowser]] spirits enhance the character's fire attacks, while [[Papercraft|Papercraft Mario]] and [[Tiki Tak Tribe]] increase the damage received from fire attacks.
