'''Flamer''' is a fairly common reoccurring enemy in the [[Kirby (series)|''Kirby'' series]]. It is known for its speed and erratic temperament. First appearing in ''[[Kirby's Adventure]]'', this flying eyeball with spouting flame nozzles can be seen rolling along walls, floors, and ceilings, only detaching when it is angered. Flamer prefers to roll in a counter-clockwise motion - thus tending to make left turns rather than right ones - but will change direction under certain circumstances. Once it detaches from its rolling area, Flamer will spin in the air and home in on its target, and then burst forward in a fireball tackle, usually leaving the area after this move is completed.

Flamer was initially known for providing the [[Burning]] ability when swallowed by [[Kirby]]. In more recent titles, however, it provides the [[Fire]] ability, since the two abilities have since merged into one. Flamers usually come in a shade of pink with lighter pink spouts, but can be seen in other hues in certain areas, including blue, green, and yellow. This does not change their behavi{{o}}r.

''[[Kirby: Squeak Squad|{{KSqS KMoA}}]]'' marked the first time that Flamer provided the [[Fire]] ability instead of [[Burning]]. Kirby is able to possess Flamer in this title using the [[Ghost]] ability. Doing so allows Kirby to move Flamer along walls and ceilings and change its direction, and also allows Kirby to make use of its hover and flame tackle.

''[[Kirby's Return to Dream Land|{{KRtDL KAW}}]]'' marked Flamer's first appearance in 3-D. Its behavi{{o}}r is still the same as ever, though it does benefit from increased [[stamina|durability]], and if hit by a minor attack, will merely drop down to the next available floor or wall rather than getting angry immediately. This game also introduced Flamer's nearer and further cousins [[Elec]] and [[Searches]].
