It involves Wario running frantically around an area as fire (similar to [[Mario]] running around with his overalls on fire from ''[[Super Mario 64]]'') gradually engulfs him, eventually turning him into a flame that can defeat enemies and destroy certain blocks on contact.
==History==
===''Wario Land'' series===
[[File:FlamingWario_WL4.png|frame|Flaming Wario in ''[[Wario Land 4]]'']]
When hit only by a [[Flame (Wario Land II)|Flame]] enemy, a [[Flame (Wario Land 3)|flame]] torch, a [[Fire Robota]], a [[Snake (Wario Land 3)|snake]]'s fiery breath, the [[Sun (Wario Land 3)|sun]]'s fireballs, a [[Kaentsubo]], or the flames from a [[Pig Head Statue]] or [[Aerodent]], Wario will comically start racing around with his overalls on fire. In this state, he cannot be controlled, except for jumping. In ''Wario Land II'' only, he jumps higher when pressing up on {{button|gb|pad}}. After either an amount of time has passed (in ''Wario Land II'' and ''Wario Land 3'') or Wario bounds off a wall or other unbreakable object three times (''Wario Land 4'' and ''Wario Land: Shake It!''), the flames will spread across his entire body, making him essentially a living [[fireball]]. He can now be fully controlled (although slowed down a bit and no longer able to jump) and can destroy [[Bonfire Block]]s. In ''Wario Land II'', the fireball does not stop moving, making it less controllable than in the later games where the form stands still if the player is not pressing a direction on the control pad. The state can be cured by falling into water or just waiting until he burns out.

In ''[[Wario Land: Shake It!]]'', Wario can once again use this form; however, it can only be activated by coming into contact with a [[Flimflam]].

===''Super Mario-kun''===
Flaming Wario makes a minor appearance in volume 28 of ''[[Super Mario-kun]]''. Aerodent sets Wario on fire. [[Hoggus]] attempts to help Wario, but aggravates the situation instead, angering Wario. Wario responds by contacting Hoggus while Wario is encased in fire.

===''Densetsu no Starfy 3''===
{{rewrite-expand|section=y|needs specifics on Flaming Wario's gameplay role}}
Flaming Wario is one of three Wario reactions appearing in ''[[Densetsu no Starfy 3]]'', along with [[Bubble Wario]] and [[Puffy Wario]] in Wario's guest appearance in [[starfywiki:Undersea Ruins|Kaitei Iseki]]. [[starfywiki:Starfy|Starfy]] can trigger this reaction by using his [[starfywiki:Star Spin|Star Spin]] on certain statues to set Wario alight. It behaves similarly to its appearances in the ''Wario Land'' series, and is the only way to break the fire blocks that appear in the stage. However, here the transformation continues indefinitely until Wario touches a fire block, upon which he will be extinguished.
