Burned VIII

Burn, also known as Burned and abbreviated to BRN, is a status condition.

Description[]

In the Generation I games, a burned Pokémon will lose 1/16 of full HP each turn, also halving their attack. As of Generation II, this was increased to 1/8 of the Pokémon's total health. If a Pokémon's attack is modified somehow, the game will ignore the halved attack. A skull and crossbones appears over the Pokémon when losing health.

In the Generation II, Generation III, and Generation IV games, a flame appears under the burned Pokémon. In Generation V, a flame appears on the head and torso of the Pokémon. The Pokémon has a red tint in battle.
