Fire Lion debuts in ''[[Kirby's Adventure]]'' as a Mid-Boss, where it looks very different than in future appearances; it is depicted as a blue lion with a white mane, lacking both the glowing eyes and ardent characteristics.

In battle, Fire Lion possesses three main attacks: It either launches itself at [[Kirby]] in the form of a large fireball, slashes at him with its claws, or leaps into the air and attempts to fall down on him, creating a star when it hits the ground, which can be [[inhale]]d and fired back at it by Kirby. Additionally, like most other Mid-Bosses in the game, it is able to jump up and down between attacks, making it harder to hit.

Fire Lion is one of the rarest Mid-Bosses in ''Kirby's Adventure'' and ''Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land'', being fought only twice (excluding [[Arena (Kirby's Adventure)|Arena]] battles), once in behind the fifth door in [[Yogurt Yard]] and another time during the rematch with all of the game's Mid-Bosses behind door 2 in [[Rainbow Resort]]. Apart from these encounters, it serves as the opponent of [[Orange Ocean]]'s Arena.

There is an unused second alternate palette of Fire Lion from the game. With GameShark codes, the player can make the lion with that palette appear in a level.

In the anime ''[[Kirby: Right Back at Ya!]]'', Fire Lion only makes a single appearance, being featured in the episode [[Junk Jam]]. Unlike its design in the games, it appears to consist entirely of fire, and it also possesses the ability to hover in the air and shoot fire balls from its mouth. After being brushed off by [[Night Mare Enterprises]] for not paying his bills, [[King Dedede/anime|King Dedede]] hacks into the monster delivery system to obtain Fire Lion in order to have it incinerate all the trash that has accumulated in and around [[Cappy Town]], but it gets out of control. Kirby eventually defeats the beast by turning into Fire Kirby and fighting fire with fire, inflating Fire Lion with his fire breath and tossing it into the sea, where it is destroyed by the water.

Kirby's Adventure / Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land[edit]

Artwork from Kirby's Adventure.
Kirby battling Fire Lion in Kirby's Adventure.

Fire Lion debuts in Kirby's Adventure as a Mid-Boss, where it looks very different than in future appearances; it is depicted as a blue lion with a white mane, lacking both the glowing eyes and ardent characteristics. The game's remake, Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land, however, depicts it with its modern design.

In battle, Fire Lion possesses three main attacks: It either launches itself at Kirby in the form of a large fireball, slashes at him with its claws, or leaps into the air and attempts to fall down on him, creating a star when it hits the ground, which can be inhaled and fired back at it by Kirby. Additionally, like most other Mid-Bosses in the game, it is able to jump up and down between attacks, making it harder to hit.

Fire Lion is one of the rarest Mid-Bosses in Kirby's Adventure and Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land, being fought only twice (excluding Arena battles), once in behind the fifth door in Yogurt Yard and another time during the rematch with all of the game's Mid-Bosses behind door 2 in Rainbow Resort. Apart from these encounters, it serves as the opponent of Orange Ocean's Arena.

Here, the Mid-Boss appears similarly as in Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land and acts the same—the only notable difference being that it now yields the Fire Copy Ability due to Burning being absent from the game. It is initially encountered in Revenge of the King, first in the the Illusion Islands stage and then later in The Revenge where it is teamed up with another Fire Lion, occurring right after Phan Phan is defeated. Fire Lion also has to be bested in The True Arena, as part of the True Mid-boss All Stars round.

There is an unused second alternate palette of Fire Lion from the game. With GameShark codes, the player can make the lion with that palette appear in a level.

Kirby: Triple Deluxe[edit]

Despite Fire Lion not appearing physically in Kirby: Triple Deluxe, two of the regular Keychains that can be randomly obtained depicts Fire Lion. One of them shows Fire Lion in its Kirby's Adventure sprite, while the other depicts the "Twin Fire Lions" sprites from Kirby Super Star Ultra.

Kirby: Planet Robobot[edit]

Fire Lion appears as a cameo in the second volume of the Kirby novel series, Kirby and the Big Panic in Gloomy Woods!. Its physical appearance is largely identical to its most recent game design in Kirby Super Star Ultra.

Fire Lion appears as one of many beasts roaming around in the frightful Gloomy Woods area of Dream Land.
