How to Clear A Finicky Flame

Throw an Illumina Orb at Torchic

Once you see the Torchic at the oasis, throw an Illumina Orb at it. You might need to throw multiple Illumina Orbs to trigger the action needed for the request.

Throw a Fluffruit at Torchic

Once you've hit Torchic with an Illumina orb, throw a fluffruit near it. Don't throw the fluffruit before throwing the Illumina orbs, or Torchic will just burn the fluffruit lightly. A Torchic that is powered up with an Illumina Orb beforehand will jump upward and roast the fluffruit. Snap the photo of Torchic roasting the fluffruit to fulfill the request!

Note: You can make Torchic repeat this action multiple times in the same run.

Tested a bit here. Definitely throw and orb at it, but throw the fruit a little away from it (about another torchic’s space) so it has distance to flame thrower it. If it’s too close it’ll use ember 👍

You can choose either path(I did it going to the right and got silver stars), but I think going to the left would maybe be easier. Throw an apple, then throw the orbs at it so it glows and then Torchic will do the bigger flame and burn it to a crisp
