Fire is an ability obtained by absorbing a fire type enemy, and it allows Kirby to exhale a powerful breath of fire. Kirby uses this ability while standing still, as opposed to the similar Burning ability, which is more based on moving than standing still. This is one of Kirby's oldest Copy Abilities, making its debut in Kirby's Adventure. When possessing the Fire ability, Kirby sports a golden tiara with a green jewel embedded in it. Bright orange flames emerge from the headgear, and Kirby's Template:Colour slightly changes, making him more red than pink.
Game Appearances
Kirby's Adventure/Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land
Fire first appears in Kirby's Adventure, the game which introduced Kirby's Copy Abilities, and also appears in its remake, Nightmare in Dream Land. Absorbing a Hot Head allows Kirby to breathe fire at his enemies.
Kirby Super Star/Kirby Super Star Ultra
In Kirby Super Star and the game's remake, Kirby Super Star Ultra, Kirby can obtain the fire ability through Copy Pedestals, Copy Essence Deluxes or inhaling fiery enemies, notably Burning Leo. With the fire ability equipped, Kirby can create a Burning Leo as a Helper. These games did not feature the Fire ability's counterpart Burning, but instead included moves associated with Burning into the Fire ability. Therefore, Kirby is not only able to breathe fire at enemies, but to engulf himself in flames and charge forward as well.

Kirby's Return to Dream Land
Fire reappears as an ability in Kirby's Return to Dream Land, where it is obtained by inhaling fiery enemies such as Hot Heads, Flamers, and Galbos. The Fire ability is required for some fuses to be lit to launch Kirby from a cannon to secret areas of the stage, which may provide an Energy Sphere. A super version of the Fire ability, called Monster Flame also exists, and can be obtained by inhaling a Super Hot Head.

Kirby when he inhales an enemy who uses fire. Shooting fire from his mouth, Fire Kirby can cook enemies from afar. This ability also allows Kirby to light explosive blocks, fuses, and so on. In Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land and Kirby & The Amazing Mirror, Fire Kirby can roll his burning body into enemies as an attack move. |
*= This game states that Fire Kirby made a recent appearance in Kirby: Canvas Curse. This is incorrect because, at that time, Kirby: Squeak Squad was the recent game that appeared before Brawl.

When Kirby first copied the Fire ability he was only able to breathe fire. Nowadays, he can do all sorts of neat things! For example, he can engulf himself in flames and roll forward, burning grass, lighting fuses, melting ice, and so on. What we'd really like him to do, though, is help us make the perfect s'more. Mmmmm. | Once upon a time, all Fire Kirby could do was shoot flames from his mouth, but he's come a long way since then. Now he can roll along the ground as a blazing fireball, burn up grass, light fuses, melt ice and so on. That's great and all, but what we really want to know is...can he help us get a barbecue going? |
