A '''Fire Flower''' is one of the many power-up items in the [[Mario (series)|''Mario'' series]]. They first appeared in the [[Nintendo Entertainment System]] game ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]''. This object can be found in a [[? Block]] if [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] is in his [[Super Mario]] or Super Luigi form. When obtained, the [[plumber]] can hurl out [[fireball]]s from their hands that can defeat many enemies during gameplay. This power-up replaces running. This power-up later appeared in ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', and ''[[Super Mario World]]'' among other appearances in other series, having the same function. The [[Ice Flower]] is the polar opposite of the Fire Flower.

====''Super Mario Bros.''====

In ''Super Mario Bros.'', if Mario touches a Fire Flower, he will get the ability to shoot fireballs. The fireballs may be a strong and handy projectile to use because it kills most enemies and even [[Bowser]] from a range. Only two fire balls may be thrown at once. If Mario gets hit while he is in this form, he will revert back to small Mario.

 

====''Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels''====

Fire flowers return along with every thing else in ''[[Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels]]''. They still grant Mario the same ability and even look exactly the same as its precedence. As the result, nothing much has changed at all.

In ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', they are the third most common power-up, the first being a [[Mushroom]] and the second being a [[Super Leaf]]. They, like before, grant Mario the ability to shoot fireballs. Not much has changed since ''Super Mario Bros.'' regarding the function of it.

The American version of this game introduced the idea that Fire Mario reverted back to Super Mario upon being hit, rather than Small Mario, as in other games. This was retained in all subsequent releases of this game.

In ''[[Super Mario World]]'', the Fire Flowers got a slightly changed appearance. They appear as happy red tulip-like plants instead of a circular appearance like in the other games. Other than this change, nothing has been changed in function.  

This game introduces the idea of storing powerups, having the previous one released when Mario is hit by an enemy when in a super powered form. Because of this, Fire Mario reverts back to Small Mario in the SNES version, as he can get the Super Mushroom (or better) that he had before.

However, in the GBA version, Mario retains the new setup added on by Super Mario Bros. 3. Fire Mario immediately becomes Super Mario upon being hit.

In ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'', Fire Flowers could be considered stronger, or weaker. A large amount of [[enemies]] are immune to fire, but all bosses aside from [[Dry Bowser]] can be defeated using fire. Otherwise, they act as they do in previous games. [[Block]]s containing Super Mushrooms or Fire Flowers are much more common than in previous games.

In the [[Wii]] game ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'', when Mario or Luigi obtains this item, he will go into his fire form allowing him to throw fireballs and can defeat enemies and light torches. Unlike other games where the powerup lasts until the player takes damage, the powerup only lasts a limited amount of time although Mario can take damage with this form. Also unlike the other games, the way Mario or Luigi uses it is by simply shaking the Wii Remote. If Mario is submerged in water in this form, he will revert back to normal Mario, regardless of how much time he has left in his Fire Mario form. These flowers first appeared in [[Freezeflame Galaxy]] along with its counterpart, the [[Ice Flower]]. They also appear in the [[Dusty Dune Galaxy]], [[Deep Dark Galaxy]] and [[Snow Cap Galaxy]]. Like the ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' figure, it takes the appearance of the ''New Super Mario Bros.'' version.

They also appear in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'' having the same effect as its predecessor. If a fireball is thrown at a character in a bubble, the character will get free from the bubble. Fireballs thrown could also get eaten by Yoshi and spit out as projectiles.  

A similar item called the [[Ice Flower]] appears. They have nearly the same effect, except the ice balls thrown are slower, break when coming in contact with the floor, and freezes enemies, rather than defeating them.

The Fire Flower reappears in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. Nothing at all has changed about the Fire Flower this game, and it has the same function as the ones in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]''.

===Cartoon series===

Also, Fire Flowers 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]]''. In the cartoons, they are portrayed as blue daisies. When Mario or Luigi touches one, they gain their fire powers, although most episodes had their Fire Mario costume either be not changed at all, or an orange hat and shirt with red overalls. In ''The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3'' episode "[[Reign Storm]]", the Robot Princess orders all Fire Flowers to be extinguished, as if they were actual fires.

===''Club Nintendo''===

===="Super Mario: Verloren in der Zeit"====

The ''[[Club Nintendo]]'' comic "[[Super Mario: Verloren in der Zeit]]" reveals that Fire Flowers have existed since the Stone Age. In this story, Mario uses a Fire Flower to throw Fireballs at a Tyrannosaurus rex.

===''Super Smash Bros.'' series===

[[Image:SSBfireflower.jpg|thumb|left|A '''Fire Flower''' in ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'']]

The [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.'' series]] has Fire Flowers as well. Once picked up, the player could use it to expel fire, hurting anyone who came too close. It does have a limit to how much fire it can use, and will lose its abilities after constant use. However, this doesn't mean it is worthless. The player could throw the Fire Flower at someone to burn them. In ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'', the fire flowers are alike to their debut appearance. In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', they look like actual flowers with eyes and white petals. In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', the flower has its appearance from ''New Super Mario Bros''.

The Fire Flower makes a rather uncommon appearance in all of the Mario Kart games in the [[Mario Kart (series)|''Mario Kart'' series]] unlike other items such as the Mushroom. A poster with a Fire Flower appears in [[Moonview Highway]] in Mario Kart Wii. Plus, a store in [[Coconut Mall]] sells Mario items. One of these items is a fire flower. Also, the [[Flower Cup]]'s logo is obviously a Fire Flower.

During the ''[[Paper Mario (series)|Paper Mario'' series]], the [[player]] can use these items towards the enemies Mario and his [[partner]]s encountered during their travels. These items can be purchased in many [[shop]]s in the Shroom Grocery from [[Toad Town]], Koopa's Shop from [[Koopa Village]], and Yoshi's Cabana from [[Lavalava Island]] from the [[Nintendo 64]] game ''[[Paper Mario]]''. Also in the [[Nintendo GameCube]] game ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'', they can be purchased in [[Toad Bros. Bazaar]] from [[Rogueport]], [[Niff T.'s Shop]] from [[Petalburg]], and [[Keelhaul Key Galleria]] from [[Keelhaul Key]]. They are (sort of) replaced by [[Fire Burst|Fire Bursts]] in the [[Super Paper Mario|sequel]]. 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.

====''Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time====

[[Image:Bros.Flower.jpg|thumb|left|The Mario Bros. attacking their foes with this item.]]

In the [[Nintendo DS]] game ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]'', Fire Flowers are referred to as '''Bro. Flowers'''. If used, the player would attack all the enemies with a certain amount of fireballs by constantly pressing the A button if it is passed on to Mario or the B button if it is passed on to Luigi. The [[player]] can also attack flying enemies by pressing the X button (if passed to Mario) or the Y button (if passed to Luigi), making their babies counterparts to start shooting fireballs. In addition, the damage may cause [[burn]]ing towards their foes. There are two related items in the game, the [[Mix Flower]] and the [[Ice Flower]].

====''Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story''====

[[Image:Fire_flower.gif|thumb|200px|The Fire Flower's tutorial seen in the game.]]

Fire Flowers again appear in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story]]'' as an [[Special Attack (Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story)|Attack Piece]] special. They're used almost exactly the same as Bros. Flowers in ''Partners in Time'', but after certain number of hits, player can hit both A and B buttons to attack simultaneously. Using this item will also change Mario's and Luigi's outfits to Fire Mario and Fire Luigi's outfits. It cost 4 SP to use this attack. To use it, the player must collect all the [[Pump Works]] [[Attack Pieces]]. It is one of the hardest moves to get an Excellent due to the player must have very rapid button mashing to make it work.

===''Mario vs. Donkey Kong'' series===

====''Mario vs. Donkey Kong 2: March of the Minis====

In the Nintendo DS game ''[[Mario vs. Donkey Kong 2: March of the Minis]]'', when a [[Mini-Mario]] touches a Fire Flower, he would go in his Fire Mini-Mario form and begins throwing fireballs within a limited time to knock out enemies or defeat them. These items can be obtained from a ? Block during those levels.

===''Super Smash Bros. Melee''===

|''Once you grab this item, press and hold down the A Button to make the flower breathe flames until its power gives out. The Fire Flower is incredibly useful when you want to push someone off the edge of a stage. In Super Mario Bros., it transformed Mario into Fire Mario, changing his garb and enabling him to throw fireballs.''
