'''Fire Lion''' is a [[Mid-Boss]] in ''[[Kirby's Adventure]]'', ''[[Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land]]'' and ''[[Kirby Super Star Ultra]]''. It resembles a large, usually dark brown lion with angry, glowing eyes, long fangs and a mane entirely composed of flames, as well as a fiery tuft at the end of its tail.

In ''[[Kirby Super Star Ultra]]'', Fire Lion reappears, despite not being present in the original ''[[Kirby Super Star]]''. 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 the [[Illusion Islands]] part of the [[Revenge of the King]] stage and later reappears in [[The Revenge]], where it is teamed up with another Fire Lion, and together, they are known as '''Twin Fire Lions'''. This occurs right after [[Phan Phan]] is defeated. [[King Dedede]], after having noticed Phan Phan's defeat, sends the Twin Fire Lions to deal with Kirby. Twin Fire Lions possess most of the same attacks as a single Fire Lion, but they coordinate their attacks to cover a fair amount more ground at once. Due to this, it is even trickier to dodge their movements. Fire Lion also has to be bested in [[The True Arena]].

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.

Despite Fire Lion not appearing physically in ''[[Kirby: Planet Robobot]]'', there is a [[Sticker (Kirby: Planet Robobot)|sticker]] based on the lion that can be randomly obtained. The sticker depicts Fire Lion from its ''Kirby Super Star Ultra'' artwork, but is cropped to only show its head.

Fire Lion appears as a cameo in the second volume of the [[Kirby (novel series)|''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]]. It encounters [[King Dedede (novel character)|King Dedede]] in the middle of the night there, alongside his companion the [[Woodkeeper]], immediately preparing to attack, only for its natural built-in flames to be abruptly put out by Dedede's excessively loud yelling. It returns to the darkness of the woods then after. Later on, Fire Lion reappears with its flames yet again, this time encountering [[Kirby (novel character)|Kirby]] and [[Meta Knight (novel character)|Meta Knight]] alongside Dedede. Fire Lion is quickly [[inhale]]d by Kirby without a chance to make its attack, providing the puffball with the [[Fire]] [[Copy Ability]]. Fire Lion is lastly spat back out by Kirby later, allowing it to retreat back into the woods.

Fire Lion notably does not follow the usual [[Mid-Boss]] guideline in this appearance—normally, it has to be taken down first before being vulnerable to a regular inhale. Here, Kirby can inhale it right away just like any regular foe.

Fire Lion is also briefly mentioned in ''[[Kirby: Big Race in Pupupu Land!]]''. It is one of the "cool" pets that [[Kizario]]'s friends owned, which made them tease him about [[Peperon]].
