Flare Blitz (フレアドライブ, Flare Drive) is Charizard's side special move in Super Smash Bros. 4. It is a very powerful dashing tackle that causes recoil damage if it hits.
Description from the 3DS version's foldout
"A powerful flaming tackle that also hurts you."
Customization
- 1 Blast Burn: A slower version of Flare Blitz that deals more damage to both Charizard and its opponent
- 2 Dragon Rush: Has less power overall, but Charizard takes no recoil damage.
Origin
Flare Blitz is a physical Fire-type attack introduced in Generation IV. It is very powerful, with 120 base power, 100% accuracy, 15 PP, and has a 10% chance to inflict a burn status; however, the user takes a third of the damage dealt to the target as recoil.
Blast Burn is the fire elemental equivalent of Hyper Beam with 150 base power. While it doesn't damage the user, it does leave them vulnerable for the next turn as they need to recharge.
Dragon Rush is a Dragon-type attack that has no negative effects on the user but has reduced accuracy. It has 100 base power, which is high, but not as high as Flare Blitz.
