'''Fire Flowers''' (alternatively written as '''Fireflowers'''<ref>{{cite|quote=Every character has a unique special skill. ''[…]'' Mario’s '''Fireflower''' launches a trio of fireballs.|url=apps.apple.com/us/story/id1477142338|title=Meet the Amazing Racers of Mario Kart Tour ({{file link|App Store screenshot story Meet the Amazing Racers of MKT.png|Screenshot}}.)|publisher=apple.com (United States)|accessdate=October 6, 2021|archive=web.archive.org/web/20211006220600/https://apps.apple.com/us/story/id1477142338}}</ref>), also known as '''Flame Flowers''',<ref>{{cite|deadlink=y|archive=web.archive.org/web/19991127081403/http://www.smashbros.com/enter.html|title=Official American ''Super Smash Bros.'' website|accessdate=May 17, 2018}}</ref> are power-ups introduced in ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' They change the player character into their [[Fire Mario|Fire]] form, allowing them to throw [[fireball]]s, which defeat enemies, melt [[Ice Block]]s, and light up dark areas. The Fire Flower is grabbed and wielded in most appearances outside of the [[Super Mario (series)|''Super Mario'' series]], and certain media such as ''[[Club Nintendo (German magazine)|Club Nintendo]]'' and ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'' suggest that Fire Flowers are eaten by the characters. While [[Mario]] in ''Club Nintendo'' remarks that the Fire Flower tastes "disgusting," the bio for Fire Flower's constellation in ''[[Mario Party 9]]'' describes it as a spicy and "surprisingly tasty snack." It is an upgrade over the [[Super Mushroom]], which is similarly reflected by the [[Flower Cup]], which a Fire Flower is a symbol of, being higher ranked than the [[Mushroom Cup]].

Fire Flowers were originally design with white petals, a center orange circle, a green stem, and two green leaves for ''Super Mario Bros.'' The design was updated in ''[[Super Mario World]]'' to resemble an orange {{iw|wikipedia|tulip}} with a happy face, as well as a shorter stem and smaller leaves. ''[[Super Mario All-Stars]]'' introduced the current design of Fire Flowers, which has red and yellow petals stylized as a continuous round shape, a white face with eyes, and a green stem with two leaves. Fire Flowers in ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'' are depicted with taller leaves and a round flower, and those in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' have pink petals, a yellow face with eyes, and thinner leaves.

The Fire Flower has seen a number of variants. Its ice counterpart is known as the [[Ice Flower]], which is a common power-up after ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'', and its golden counterpart is known as the [[Gold Flower]]. The Fire Flower is used as a basis for [[Flower (Super Mario RPG)|Flower Points]] in a few of the role-playing games.

==History==
===''Super Mario'' series===
====''Super Mario Bros.'' / ''Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels''====
[[File:SMB FireFlower.jpg|thumb|Artwork from ''Super Mario Bros.'', depicting the original design of a Fire Flower]]
Fire Flowers in both ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' and ''[[Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels]]'' give the player to shoot fireballs by pressing {{button|nes|B}}, after turning Mario or Luigi into his [[Fire Mario|Fire form]]. The fireballs are strong and handy projectiles to use because they can defeat most enemies and even defeat [[Bowser]] with just five hits. Only two fireballs can be thrown at once. If Mario gets hit while he is in [[Fire Mario|Fire form]], he reverts back to [[Small Mario]]. If Small Mario gets a Fire Flower, he only transforms into [[Super Mario (form)|Super Mario]].

====''Super Mario Bros. 3''====
Fire Flowers give the ability to shoot fireballs in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]''. Fire Mario reverts to Super Mario upon being hit, nullifying the effects of the Fire Flower, from this game onward. In [[Family Computer]] and [[Nintendo Entertainment System]] releases, due to alternative values occasionally being assigned to the typical "green" palette, Fire Flower stems sometimes appear other colors, being cyan in fortress levels, light blue in tank levels, and white in ice levels containing [[beanstalk]]s. Original allow [[Small Mario]] to morph straight to Fire Mario through a glitch.

====''Super Mario World''====
[[File:SMW Fire Flower.jpg|thumb|left|Artwork from ''Super Mario World'']]
Fire Flowers were redesigned for ''[[Super Mario World]]'' to appear as happy orange tulip-like plants. They work the same as usual, but Fire Mario reverts back to Small Mario in the [[Super Nintendo Entertainment System|SNES]] version, since the [[item storage]] of an additional power-up item, such as the Fire Flower, can fall to him, though in the [[Super Mario World: Super Mario Advance 2|remake]], the downgraded form is Super Mario. Because of the added feature of [[Spin Jump|spin-jumping]] when Mario does so by pressing {{button|snes|A}}, he shoots out fireballs left and right while in the air. The Fire Flower can upgrade the player character to their Fire form, which would become standard in later installments.

[[List of Super Mario World pre-release and unused content#Test_cartridges|Early test cartridges]] used a circular appearance for the Fire Flower like in other games.

====''Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins''====
Fire Flowers were reinstated in ''[[Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins]]'', after being replaced by [[Superball Flower]]s in ''[[Super Mario Land]]''. The Fire Flower gives Fire Mario a feather on top of his hat, since the [[Game Boy]] cannot display the color differences properly. Wario also uses a Fire Flower to become {{conjectural|Fire Wario}} during the third portion of the final boss battle. A Fire Flower can even appear if Mario is [[Small Mario|Small]].

====''Super Mario 64 DS''====
Fire Flowers are only graphics in some minigames of ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]'': They are on some of the cards in [[Luigi]]'s card games; a symbol in [[Mushroom Roulette]]; slots in [[Mario Slot]] and [[Super Mario Slot]], where matching three multiplies the gambled coins by ten; on cards in [[Psyche Out!]]; and cameo in [[Slots Shot]].

====''New Super Mario Bros.''====
[[File:Fire Flower - New Super Mario Bros.png|thumb|Artwork from ''New Super Mario Bros.'', which standardized their appearance]]
Fire Flowers of ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'' look the same as they do in ''[[Super Mario All-Stars]]''. The Fire Flower can produce fireballs that can produce a coin, similar to ''Super Mario World''. Fire Flowers cannot turn [[Shell Mario]] into Fire Mario and are relegated as a [[item storage|Stored Item]]. The Fire Flower is still a graphic on certain playing cards in the Table minigames from ''Super Mario 64 DS''. The minigame [[Picture Poker]] puts Fire Flowers at a tier higher than Mushrooms.

====''Super Mario Galaxy''====
The fireballs from Fire Flowers in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'' not only defeat but also destroy [[snow]] obstructions and light [[Lantern|torches]]. The Fire Flower wears off not by damage but after twenty seconds, meaning Mario and Luigi can take damage and still retain their Fire Mario and Fire Luigi forms, respectively. The Fire Flower allows for more than two fireballs to be thrown, but this is not usable underwater. Fire Flowers first appear in the [[Freezeflame Galaxy]] alongside [[Ice Flower]]s. They are later used to break boulders in the [[Dusty Dune Galaxy]], light torches to open a gate in the [[Deep Dark Galaxy]], and melt the snow in the [[Snow Cap Galaxy]].

====''New Super Mario Bros. Wii''====
Fire Flowers appear in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'', typically within underground, underwater, and snow environments. They are based mostly on their role in ''New Super Mario Bros.'', but their fireballs have a few more functions, including the ability to light up dark places; burning the shells of [[Prickly Goomba]]s to revert them to Goombas; and defeat [[Cheep Chomp]]s and [[Porcupuffer]]s.

====''Super Mario Galaxy 2''====
The Fire Flowers of ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'' are like those in ''Super Mario Galaxy'' while still appearing in unique capacities. Fire Flowers are first seen in the [[Crate Burning]] minigame, seen only in "[[The Great Crate Incinerator]]" of [[Rightside Down Galaxy]] and "[[Burning Upside Dizzy]]" of [[Upside Dizzy Galaxy]]; they are essential, since the player character cannot break every crate otherwise. Fire Flowers are required to defeat [[Squizzard]] in the Slipsand Galaxy's first and third missions. They also appear in [[Freezy Flake Galaxy]], the [[Slipsand Galaxy]] and the [[Battle Belt Galaxy]].

====''Super Mario 3D Land''====
Fire Flowers are power-up items in ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]''. They are like their appearances in the sidescrolling games, not ''Super Mario Galaxy'' or its sequel, other than their ability to light torches. Fire Flowers are able to destroy [[Thorny flower|thistle]]s.

====''New Super Mario Bros. 2''====
The Fire Flower reappears in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. 2]]''. Their fireballs work like in previous games but can be shot into [[! Pipe]]s to release [[coin]]s and other items. The game introduces a Fire Flower counterpart titled the [[Gold Flower]], which turns Mario into [[Gold Mario]], who throws golden fireballs that produce coins from hitting enemies and [[Brick Block]]s.

====''New Super Mario Bros. U'' / ''New Super Luigi U'' / ''New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe''====
The Fire Flower reappears in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]'', ''[[New Super Luigi U]]'', and [[New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe|their port]]. Their role is the most similar to ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii'', since they allow for dark places to be lit up and Prickly Goomba shells to be burnt, but are also the most common in the same environments. Unique functions of a Fire Flower's fireballs include the ability to burn the ice platforms in [[Piranha Plants on Ice]] and [[Slippery Rope Ladders]]; obtaining [[Star Coin]]s next to [[Big Piranha Plant]]s and [[Urchin]]s. Fire Flowers are obtainable in [[bubble]]s produced by [[Bubble Baby Yoshi]]. In the port, playing as [[Toadette]] causes most ? Blocks that would contain Fire Flowers to release [[Super Crown]]s.

====''Super Mario 3D World'' / ''Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury''====
[[File:Fire Flower Artwork - Super Mario 3D World.png|thumb|A Fire Flower in ''Super Mario 3D World'']]
The Fire Flower reappears in ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'' and [[Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury|its port]], having the most similarity to their appearance in ''Super Mario 3D Land''. The fireballs of a Fire Flower can reveal the invisible platforms of [[Footlight Lane]] and [[Trickity Tower]], destroy the [[spike ball (seed)|spike ball]]s in [[Clear Pipe Cruise]] and [[Crate]]s in [[Double Cherry Pass]], and cause the snow on the [[Tree]]s in [[Snowball Park]] to fall. Fire Flowers are one of the slots depicted on [[Slot Block]]s in [[Lucky House]]s.

====''Super Mario Maker'' series====
[[File:SMM2 Topic Superball Flower Banner.jpg|thumb|left|250px|Fire Flowers and a Superball Flower in ''Super Mario Maker 2'']]
Fire Flowers reappear as power-ups in ''[[Super Mario Maker]]'', [[Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS|its port]], and ''[[Super Mario Maker 2]]''. They look the same in each game style, except ''Super Mario Bros. 3'', where they are designed similarly to their modern counterparts. Fire Flowers are placeable anywhere in [[Course Maker]], including on Mario to turn him into Fire Mario. Fire Flowers can become status-dependent progressive items if a Super Mushroom is dragged onto them.

Fire Flowers travel away from the player character in the nighttime ground theme of ''Super Mario Maker 2'', in addition to being featured in the job [[Treetop Fireballs]]. They can also be transformed into a [[Superball Flower]] from ''[[Super Mario Land]]''.
{{br|left}}

====''Super Mario Run''====
Fire Flowers do not appear in ''[[Super Mario Run]]''. However, there is a [[List of Kingdom Builder items in Super Mario Run|Fire Flower Statue]] building in the Kingdom Builder mode, The [[List of Kingdom Builder items in Super Mario Run|8-bit Fire Flower Statue]] is another building, and the [[List of Kingdom Builder items in Super Mario Run|8-bit Fire Flower Trim]] is a decoration. Both of these use the Fire Flower's appearance from ''Super Mario Bros.''

Fire Flowers are stamps on the Stamp Cards in the ''[[Super Mario Bros. Wonder]]'' event in ''Super Mario Run'' from December 20, 2023 to March 15, 2024.

====''Super Mario Odyssey''====
A Fire Flower is depicted on [[Princess Peach]]'s kimono in [[Bowser's Kingdom]] in ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]''.

====''Super Mario Bros. 35''====
Fire Flowers appeared in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 35]]''. They turn Mario into Fire Mario regardless of his previous state, and back into Super Mario if he receives damage. A Fire Flower added 15 seconds to the [[Time Limit|timer]] if Fire Mario obtained it. The Item Roulette had a chance of giving the player a Fire Flower.

====''Super Mario Bros. Wonder''====
The Fire Flower appears returns in ''[[Super Mario Bros. Wonder]]'' with no major difference from before.

===''Super Mario Bros.: Peach-hime Kyushutsu Dai Sakusen!''===
[[File:Peach-hime Fire Flower.png|thumb|200px|The Fire Flower in ''Super Mario Bros.: Peach-hime Kyūshutsu Dai Sakusen!'']]
In ''[[Super Mario Bros.: Peach-hime Kyūshutsu Dai Sakusen!]]'', the Fire Flower alongside the [[Super Mushroom]] and [[Super Star]] are the three power-ups that must be combined to defeat [[Bowser]].

===DIC cartoons===
[[File:SMBSSFlower.jpg|thumb|left|A Fire Flower from ''The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!'' episode, "[[Brooklyn Bound]]"]]
Fire Flowers also appeared in the cartoon television series ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!]]'', ''[[The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', and ''[[Super Mario World (television series)|Super Mario World]]''. Most episodes have their outfit either be not changed at all (often due to animation errors) or turn white and red/green (in ''The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!'' and ''Super Mario World'') or orange and red (in ''The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3'').

In ''The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!'', when a character touches a Fire Flower, they sometimes first gain a temporary increase in size, then gain their fire powers as well as flight and/or extra speed and strength sometimes; they are called their Super forms in this show. The following shows use the same powers and form name as in the respective games. The Fire Flower first appears in the episode "[[The Bird! The Bird!]]", where Mario uses it to melt the snow trapping him.

In ''The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3'', due to their sprite's appearing blue in the coinciding game, ''Super Mario Bros. 3'', Fire Flowers are depicted as blue and white flowers. During "[[Reign Storm]]", the Robot Princess orders all Fire Flowers to be extinguished, as if they were actual fires.

In ''Super Mario World'', Fire Flowers look like realistic orange tulips with no eyes that are always connected to a ? Block. They sometimes spit out fireballs themselves. Mario is the only character in the show to be seen using Fire Flowers. The power-up first appears in "[[The Wheel Thing]]", where he uses it to burn some holes into some wheels.

===''Club Nintendo''===
Fire Flowers existed since the stone age, according to "[[Super Mario: Verloren in der Zeit]]." A Fire Flower is used by Mario at one point to throw Fireballs at a Tyrannosaurus Rex. Unusually, Mario eats a Fire Flower to receive their abilities and describes them as tasting disgusting.

===''Mario Kart'' series===
[[File:MKDD-FlowerCup.png|thumb|100px|The emblem of the Flower Cup in ''Mario Kart: Double Dash!!'']]	
Within every game of the ''Mario Kart'' series, the Fire Flower is the emblem of the [[Flower Cup]].
====''Mario Kart Wii''====
[[File:MKW-GreenFuel.png|thumb|left|100px|A sponsor poster with a Fire Flower on it]]
A poster with a Fire Flower appears in [[Moonview Highway]] in ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]''. If the player is a [[Mii]], its face changes to a random [[Mii]] on the console's memory. The "Delfino Dream" store of [[Coconut Mall]] is shown to sell Fire Flowers amongst other items.

====''Mario Kart 7''====
Fire Flowers can be obtained by certain players from an [[Item Box]] in ''[[Mario Kart 7]]'', anywhere between 2nd to 4th position, as well as 5th position if they are not CPUs. A Fire Flower is used to throw several [[fireball]]s forward or backward by pressing {{button|3ds|L}}, causing racers to spin out. The Fire Flower wears off either after throwing all ten fireballs or ten seconds after the first one is thrown. Only three fireballs appear at once, and if a fourth is thrown while there are still three fireballs, the first one thrown disappears.

====''Mario Kart 8'' / ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe''====
The Fire Flower item returns in ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'', and it works similarly to how it did in ''Mario Kart 7'', with the difference being one can throw more than 3 fireballs at one time. A meter is added to indicate players how much time is left until the Fire Flower's effects disappear. Additionally, the statue of [[Princess Peach]] in [[Toad Harbor]] can be seen holding a Fire Flower in its lowered right hand. A flower patch with a Fire Flower design can also be found in the background of {{classic link|GCN|Baby Park}}. In {{classic link|Wii|Coconut Mall}} from the ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe – Booster Course Pass|Booster Course Pass]]'', there is a shop named "Fire Flower Curry House".

====''Mario Kart Tour''====
The Fire Flower returns in ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'' as the [[Special Item (Mario Kart series)|special item]] of [[Mario]], [[Luigi]], [[Toad (species)|Red Toad (Pit Crew)]], [[Roving Racers|Red Koopa (Freerunning)]], [[Fire Bro]], [[Birdo|Birdo (Green)]], [[Metal Mario]], [[Mario|Mario (Santa)]], [[Wario|Wario (Cowboy)]], [[Princess Daisy|Daisy (Yukata)]], [[Princess Peach|Peach (Halloween)]], [[Fire Mario|Fire Rosalina]], [[Pauline|Pauline (Rose)]], [[Gold Mario]] (outside of Coin Rush), and the [[Mii|Mario, Luigi, and Piranha Plant Mii Racing Suits]]. When deployed, fireballs orbit the player's kart and can fire a spread of three fireballs instead of throwing several fireballs, very much like the [[Fireball]] from ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]''. When Fire Flower+ is active, a fourth fireball is added, allowing the player to use four fireballs as opposed to just three.

===''Mario is Missing!''===
The '''fire flower''' appears only in the PC version of ''[[Mario is Missing! (PC)|Mario is Missing!]]'', once every artifact has been returned in every city and gives Luigi the ability to burn the [[Koopalings|Koopa Kid]] and continue to the next floor of [[Bowser's Castle]].

===''UNDAKE30 Same Game''===
Fire Flowers in their ''Super Mario World'' design are one of the objects within the playing field in ''[[UNDAKE30 Same Game]]''.

===''Mario's FUNdamentals''===
Fire Flowers from ''Super Mario World'' are depicted on dominoes representing a 4 in the Dominoes game in ''[[Mario's FUNdamentals]]''.

===''Mario Party'' series===
[[File:MP8 PicturePerfect.png|thumb|150px|A Fire Flower in the ''Mario Party 8'' minigame Picture Perfect]]
Fire Flowers throughout the [[Mario Party (series)|''Mario Party'' series]] usually appear as simple background decoration and elements in various puzzle [[minigames]] rather than as power-up items. Their first appearance in the series is the [[Nintendo 64]] game ''[[Mario Party]]'', where they appear on some of the panels in the minigame [[Memory Match (Mario Party)|Memory Match]], and as slots in [[Slot Machine (Mario Party)|Slot Machine]], where if three Fire Flower are lined up, the player gets 8 coins. In ''[[Mario Party 5]]'', the Fire Flower is a roulette item in the minigame [[Panic Pinball]] and one of the flooring types in the minigame [[Squared Away]]. In ''[[Mario Party 6]]'', similarly to ''Mario Party''{{'}}s Slot Machine, Fire Flowers appear as slots in the minigame [[Slot Trot]], and the game also features them as one of the pictures in [[Pixel Perfect]] and as a target in the introductory cutscene of [[Hyper Sniper]]. In ''[[Mario Party Advance]]'', Fire Flowers appear in the minigames [[Match 'Em]] and [[Pair 'Em]], appearing on the slots and the cards, respectively, and if three three Fire Flowers are matched on the slots in Match 'Em, the player earns 150 [[coin]]s. In ''[[Mario Party 8]]'', there is a possibility of a Fire Flower being projected by the projectors in the minigame [[Picture Perfect (minigame)|Picture Perfect]]. In ''[[Mario Party DS]]'', Fire Flowers are among the pair of cards in [[Memory Mash]]. In ''[[Mario Party 9]]'' and ''[[Mario Party: Island Tour]]'', a Fire Flower is one of the puzzles in the minigame [[Jigsaw Jumble]] and [[Tile Savvy]], respectively, and Fire Flowers also appear in the latter game's [[Xylophone Home]]. In ''[[Mario Party: Star Rush]]'', Fire Flowers appear in the minigame [[One-Stop Toad Shop]], where they can be requested by some [[Toad (species)|Toads]], and on some pictures in [[Top It Off]]. In ''[[Mario Party: The Top 100]]'', Fire Flowers retain their appearances in Slot Trot and Jigsaw Jumble, but not Squared Away, which removed the Fire Flower flooring. In ''[[Mario Party Superstars]]'', a Fire Flower frame is added to the ''Mario Party'' minigame [[Tipsy Tourney]].

===''Super Smash Bros.'' series===
{{main-wiki|SmashWiki|Fire Flower}}
[[File:SSBfireflower.jpg|thumb|left|A Fire Flower sports an unusual design in ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'']]
In the [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.'' series]], the Fire Flower appears as an item in every installment to date. Once picked up, the player, instead of gaining the ability to throw fireballs, can shoot a continuous but short stream of fire from it to damage anyone nearby. It does have a limit to how much fire it can use, and loses its abilities after constant use. The Fire Flower also deals fire damage if it hits an opponent when thrown. In ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'', the Fire Flowers are alike to their debut appearance, but in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', they look like daisies with eyes and white petals, a design which is original to ''Super Smash Bros.'' From ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' onwards, the Fire Flower is given its appearance from ''Super Mario All-Stars''.

In addition, a Fire Flower appears as a [[Sticker (Super Smash Bros. Brawl)|sticker]] in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'', which can be used on a fighter in [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl#The Subspace Emissary|The Subspace Emissary]] to grant them a Fire Flower at the beginning of a stage. A Fire Flower also appears as a Novice-class support [[Spirit (Super Smash Bros. Ultimate)|spirit]] in ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate''. When used, it similarly equips the fighter with a Fire Flower at the beginning of a battle. This spirit's core can be combined with the cores of [[Metal Mario]] and a [[Super Mushroom]] to summon the [[Gold Mario]] spirit, or with the cores of Charlotte Aulin and a [[Freezie]] to summon the [[zeldawiki:Twinrova|Koume & Kotake]] spirit.

Mario and Luigi use Fireballs as their standard special move. Mario shoots red fireballs, and Luigi shoots green, like in ''Mario Kart: Double Dash!!'' This is the first game in which Mario and Luigi use the flower itself to throw fireballs rather than transforming into their Fire forms, a tactic that would later be used in the ''[[Paper Mario (series)|Paper Mario]]'' and ''[[Mario & Luigi (series)|Mario & Luigi]]'' series.

}}
====''Paper Mario''====
The Fire Flower is a one-use item in ''[[Paper Mario]]''. It uses the design from ''Super Mario World'', but with a yellow face with open eyes in the middle. It can be found in shops, enemy item drops (such as from [[Piranha Plant]]s), and item blocks. Rather than transforming Mario, Mario plants the Fire Flower, and the Fire Flower emits fire that burns opponents. If used against ice enemies, it deals an extra 2 damage points, whereas it replenishes the health of fire enemies such as the [[Lava Bubble]] and [[Ember]]. These items can be purchased in many [[shop]]s, such as in the [[Shroom Grocery]] from [[Toad Town]], [[Koopa's Shop]] from [[Koopa Village]], and [[Yoshi's Cabana]] from [[Lavalava Island]].

[[Tayce T.]] can also cook her own Fire Flower by mixing a [[Dried Fruit]] and a [[Strange Leaf]], two items that resemble the two parts of a Fire Flower.

====''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door''====
In  ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'', Fire Flowers reuse their design from the previous game. They can be purchased in [[Toad Bros. Bazaar]] from [[Rogueport]], [[Niff T.'s shop]] from [[Petalburg]], and [[Keelhaul Galleria]] from [[Keelhaul Key]]. If the Fire Flower is used against ice enemies, it deals an extra damage point. Fire Flowers can be also used as ingredients to be made into new items with a help of Tayce T. or [[Zess T.]] Recipes can be found below.

Like in the Club Nintendo comic mentioned above, this game seemingly confirms that Mario does indeed eat Fire Flowers: a certain optional scene in the [[Glitz Pit]] has Mario informing a [[Lakitu]] cameraman that he "shoots fire when he eats a flower".

====''Super Paper Mario''====
In ''[[Super Paper Mario]]'', Fire Flowers appear in the skies of [[Lineland]] and at [[Fort Francis]], in the room on the left, thus giving them cameos as non-collectible items. [[Fire Burst]]s replaced the Fire Flowers from the previous ''Paper Mario'' games. The Fire Flower uses the ''Super Mario World'' appearance for these games.

====''Paper Mario: Sticker Star''====
[[File:Fire Flower Sticker PMSS.png|thumb|Fire Flower artwork for ''Paper Mario: Sticker Star'']]
The Fire Flower returns as a [[Sticker#Fire Flower|sticker]] in ''[[Paper Mario: Sticker Star]]'', having its appearance from ''[[Super Mario All-Stars]]'' and onward. Using it in battle turns Mario into Fire Mario, allowing him to throw fireballs at any ground and low-altitude enemies, causing them to disintegrate into ash if their HP is fully depleted. A Fire Flower can be placed in the [[Sticker Museum]] as #67, having a two-star attack rating. They are commonly found in [[World 1 (Paper Mario: Sticker Star)|World 1]], and are available at the [[Whammino Mountain]] sticker shop for 20 coins. [[Shiny Fire Flower|Shiny]] and [[Flashy Fire Flower|Flashy]] variants of this sticker also exist, which inflict more damage. Fire Flowers also appear on the [[Battle Spin]]ner, where lining up three of them has the same effect as a Fire Flower sticker. To open the door to [[Drybake Desert]], Mario must Paperize either a Fire Flower or Ice Flower into a specific spot. A similar puzzle appears on the final floor of [[Drybake Stadium]].

====''Paper Mario: Color Splash''====
Fire Flowers return in ''[[Paper Mario: Color Splash]]'', taking the form of a [[Battle Card (Paper Mario: Color Splash)#Fire Flower|card]] and keeping their appearance from the previous game. They come in normal and [[Big Fire Flower|Big]] variations, and are found since the very beginning of the game, first appearing in [[Ruddy Road]]. They commonly appear on the [[Battle Spin]]. Fire Flower cards use a high amount of red paint to color. At [[Prisma Cardware]], a pre-painted Fire Flower costs 200 coins, while an unpainted one costs 40.

====''Paper Mario: The Origami King''====
[[File:PMTOK Origami Fire Flower Artwork.png|thumb|left|150px|A Fire Flower in Paper Mario: The Origami King]]
In ''[[Paper Mario: The Origami King]]'', Fire Flowers reappear as items and function the same as in the previous two ''Paper Mario'' games, allowing Mario to shoot fireballs at enemies in a line formation. [[Shiny Fire Flower|Shiny]] versions also return. They are strong against [[Sumo Bro]]s and the [[Boss Sumo Bro]]. They can also be used to deal some damage to the [[Ice Vellumental]] while it is encased in ice. Fire Flowers can be bought at [[Toad Town]], [[Picnic Road]], and the [[Souvenir Shop (Paper Mario: The Origami King)|Souvenir Shop]] in [[Shogun Studios]] for 240 coins. In [[Whispering Woods]], a [[Faded Fire Flower]] can be collected. If it is thrown into the forest spring, it transforms into a regular Fire Flower. The [[Fire Flower Set]] is a box of three Fire Flowers that is sold at Toad Town for 640 coins. A Collectible Treasure of a Fire Flower can be found in the [[Fire Vellumental Cave]].

====''Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time''====
[[File:Bros. Flower PiT.png|thumb|left|The Mario Bros. attacking their foes with this item.]]
In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]'', Fire Flowers are referred to as '''Bro Flowers''' and use the design from ''[[Super Mario All-Stars]]''. They are one of the [[Bros. Item]]s. If used, the player attacks all the enemies with a certain amount of fireballs by constantly pressing the {{button|ds|A}} button if the big fireball is passed on to Mario or the {{button|ds|B}} button if it is passed on to Luigi. The player can press the {{button|ds|X}} button (if passed to Mario) or the {{button|ds|Y}} button (if passed to Luigi) to make their baby counterparts shoot fireballs, which damage airborne enemies. In addition, the attack may [[burn]] their foes. The game introduced three counterparts: [[Mix Flower]], [[Ice Flower]], and [[Copy Flower]]. Ice Flowers damage enemies like Fire Flowers do, though Fire Flowers burn them, while Ice Flowers randomly decrease their stats, such as attack, defense, and speed. Bro Flowers never deal more than one damage to [[Elasto-Piranha]]s, [[Dark Boo]]s, red [[Wonder Thwack]]s, or enemies with 999 DEF, such as [[Gold Koopeleon]].

}}
Fire Flowers again appear in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]'' and ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey]]'' as a [[Bros. Attack]] obtained by collecting all ten [[Pump Works]] [[Attack Piece]]s. They are used almost the same as in ''Partners in Time'', but after a certain number of hits, the player can hit both {{button|ds|A}} and {{button|ds|B}} buttons to attack simultaneously. The move costs 4 [[Bros. Point|SP]] (3 with a Budget Charm or Thrift Charm, 2 with a Tight Belt) in the original, and 6 BP (7 on Easy mode) in the remake. Rapidly pressing the button is required to get an Excellent rating on this attack. As of this game, Mario and Luigi now turn into their [[Fire Mario|Fire forms]] from the ''Super Mario'' games for the duration of the move.

In ''Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey'', after finishing the Fire Flower Bros. Attack, Mario cleans his hands, spin around and tip his hat, while Luigi spins around and does a finger gun motion.
{{br|left}}

====''Mario & Luigi: Dream Team''====
[[File:CTRP Mario&L4 scrn02 Ev04.png|thumb|left|Screenshot of the Fire Flower in ''Mario & Luigi: Dream Team'']]
The Fire Flower returns as Luigi's second available Bros. Attack in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Dream Team]]'', costing 5 BP (3 if Casual Bros is equipped). Its Attack Pieces are found in [[Dozing Sands]]. It can hit any enemy on the ground and airborne enemy, and may inflict the Burn status. Damage is inflicted only after the attack ends, and thus it is impossible for enemies to be defeated during the attack.

When used, Mario and Luigi begin charging and hurling fireballs at the enemies erratically. The player must press {{button|3ds|A}} or {{button|3ds|B}} for Mario and Luigi, respectively, to launch fireballs randomly at the enemies, with orange fireballs (fully charged fireballs that flash to signal this) doing the most damage. If red fireballs (not charged) are fired, they do considerably less damage and none at all if the fireballs are charged too long. If all fireballs are thrown appropriately, Mario and Luigi eventually start charging fireballs rapidly, the player having to press {{button|3ds|A}} and {{button|3ds|B}} rapidly in order to throw as many as possible at the enemies. 

The greater the amount of fireballs thrown, the better the ranking the player receives in the aftermath of the attack, ranging from "OK!" to "Excellent!" ratings. The damage dealt from this attack is given a Fire attribute, and thus deals critical damage to [[Caccac]]s and [[Beehoss]].

The [[Mad Skillathon]] involves charging more fireballs which instantly defeat their targets. Occasionally, a larger target may appear, triggering the bonfire phase.

====''Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam''====
[[File:MLPJ FireFlower.png|thumb|left|Screenshot of Mario and Luigi using the Fire Flower in ''Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam'']]
The Fire Flower returns in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam]]''. Like in ''Mario & Luigi: Dream Team'', it is one of Luigi's Bros. Attack moves. However, the attack is available from the start of the game, obtained at [[Peach's Castle]] along with the [[Red Shell#Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam|3D Red Shell]], and now acts like it did in ''Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story''. This move also deals critical damage to paper enemies.
{{br|left}}

==== ''Mario & Luigi: Brothership'' ====
The Fire Flower reappears in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Brothership]]'', but unlike previous games, it is not a Bros. Attack. Instead, it is used by Mario to turn into Fire Mario in the overworld for the [[Bros. Move]] [[Fire & Ice]], allowing him to throw fireballs to melt frozen objects and light objects on fire.

===''Mario Tennis'' series===
[[File:MTA Flower Cup.png|thumb|left|x150px|The Flower Cup trophy, featuring the Fire Flower, in ''Mario Tennis Aces'']]
In the [[Mario Tennis (series)|''Mario Tennis'' series]], a Fire Flower typically appears as the [[Flower Cup]] emblem. In ''[[Mario Power Tennis]]'', aside from the Flower Cup's appearance, a Fire Flower appears on one of the trophies. In ''[[Mario Tennis Open]]'', the Flower Cup returns, and there is a tennis racket, uniform, wrist bands, and shoes designed after a Fire Flower that Miis to use. Furthermore, in the ''Mario Tennis Open'' minigame, [[Super Mario Tennis]], collecting a Fire Flower makes the ball shoot two fireballs in different directions every time the ball hits the screen, capable of defeating enemies and collecting [[coin]]s. In ''[[Mario Tennis Aces]]'', the Fire Flower is once again an emblem for the Flower Cup.
{{br|left}}
===''Yoshi Touch & Go''===
{{multiframe|[[File:YT&G Icon FireFlower.png]][[File:YT&G Icon 8Bit-FireFlower.png]]|align=right}}
In ''[[Yoshi Touch & Go]]'', the Fire Flower and an 8-bit sprite version of it appear as two of the ranking icons to pick from when a high score is achieved.

===''Mario Superstar Baseball''===
The Fire Flower appears as the emblem of the Flower Cup in ''[[Mario Superstar Baseball]]''.

===''Super Mario Strikers''===
The Flower Cup returns as one of the [[Super Mario Strikers#Cups|cups]] in ''[[Super Mario Strikers]]''.

===''Mario Hoops 3-on-3'' / ''Mario Sports Mix''===
A Fire Flower is the icon used for the [[Flower Tourney]] in ''[[Mario Hoops 3-on-3]]'' and ''[[Mario Sports Mix]]''.

===''Mario vs. Donkey Kong 2: March of the Minis''===
In ''[[Mario vs. Donkey Kong 2: March of the Minis]]'', Fire Flowers are introduced in [[Tropical Island]]. When a [[Mini]] touches a Fire Flower, it turns into its [[Fire Mario|fire form]] for a limited time; for example, a Mini Mario that touches a Fire Flower turns into Fire Mini Mario and begins throwing fireballs within a limited time to defeat and temporarily stun enemies. Fire Flowers can be obtained from a ? Block if a Mini hits the ? Block from below.

When a Mini collects a Fire Flower, the sound effect of collecting a Fire Flower from ''Super Mario Bros.'' is played. However, the "[[Ground Theme (Super Mario Bros.)|Ground Theme]]" can be faintly heard within this sound effect, implying that the sound was not properly isolated, and was instead recorded indirectly from gameplay of ''Super Mario Bros.''

===''Mario Golf: World Tour''===
Fire Flowers are usable item shots in ''[[Mario Golf: World Tour]]'', not only increasing shot distance but also being able to burn through obstructions such as trees. It is the signature item for [[Princess Daisy]]. There is a Fire Flower-themed clothing set, golf ball, and set of golf clubs usable by [[Mii]]s only.

===''Puzzle & Dragons: Super Mario Bros. Edition''===
[[File:PDSMBE-FireOrb.png|frame|left]]
In ''[[Puzzle & Dragons: Super Mario Bros. Edition]]'', Fire Flowers are used in the place of the Fire Element tiles. Fire Flowers are also used as [[Puzzle & Dragons: Super Mario Bros. Edition#Transformation items|transformation items]] to turn various teammates into their stronger forms, allowing them to use stronger versions of their Skills, such as transforming [[Bullet Bill]] into [[Banzai Bill]].
{{br|left}}

===''Minecraft''===
In the Super Mario Mash-Up Pack in ''[[Minecraft]]'', Flint and Steel is replaced by a Fire Flower.

===''Mario Sports Superstars''===
[[File:Card ProSoccer Gear FireFlower Ball.png|thumb|left|100px|A Pro Soccer Gear Fire Flower Ball card from ''Mario Sports Superstars'']]
The Fire Flower has several cameo appearances on Mario's gear in ''[[Mario Sports Superstars]]''. The Flower Cup also reappears in the game.
{{br}}

===''The Super Mario Bros. Movie''===
[[File:TSMBM Fire Flower screenshot.png|thumb|200px]]
Fire Flowers appear in a scene in ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Movie]]'', where Peach transforms into Fire Peach after touching one of them. During his battle with [[Donkey Kong]], [[Mario]] manages to get one from a [[? Block]], but Donkey Kong extinguishes it before he can use it. Donkey Kong also transforms into Fire Donkey Kong after touching one that appeared out of a ? Block that was kicked to him by Mario.<ref>{{cite|author=Illumination|date=March 9, 2023|url=youtu.be/RjNcTBXTk4I|title=The Super Mario Bros.

[[File:ACNH Fire Flower Icon.png|thumb|left|100px|A Fire Flower in ''Animal Crossing: New Horizons'']]
The Fire Flower is available as a [[nookipedia:Furniture|furniture item]] in every mainline ''[[nookipedia:Animal Crossing (series)|Animal Crossing]]'' game, usually taking on a depiction based on its sprite from ''Super Mario Bros.'' In ''[[nookipedia:Animal Crossing: New Leaf|Animal Crossing: New Leaf]]'' and ''[[nookipedia:Animal Crossing: New Horizons|Animal Crossing: New Horizons]]'', the Fire Flower, along with all other ''Super Mario''-based items, are given their current appearances.

A Fire Flower appears in an {{wp|E3 2014}} sketch by the producers of ''{{wp|Robot Chicken}}'', where [[Reggie Fils-Aimé]] uses it to [[Fire Mario|transform]] and set an indignant fan asking for ''{{iw|wikibound|Mother 3}}'' on fire.

Fire Flowers also appear in the [[Wii U]] version of ''[[nwiki:Scribblenauts Unlimited|Scribblenauts Unlimited]]'' where they can be created using Maxwell's notebook. They can be given to Mario and Luigi to turn them into  their respective Fire forms.
