Flare Blitz Competitive Analysis

Flare Blitz is a strong physical Fire-type move. This move boasts a strong 120 base power in addition to the 10% chance of inflicting Burn onto the target. Lastly, this move does recoil damage so be careful when using it.

This move is often seen on Incineroar as its primary STAB choice. The two works well because Incineroar is often a support Pokemon, meaning the recoil damage isn't as big of a deal.
