Fire Bro



This article is about the fire-spitting Hammer Bro. For information about the Bros. Attack from Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga, see Fire Bros. (move).

The Fire Bros. are an extremely rare variety of Hammer Bro. Instead of throwing Hammers like their relatives, Fire Bros. have the unique ability to spit Fireballs. These fireballs move very fast and are very hard to dodge. Fire Bros. first appeared in Super Mario Bros. 3. In fact, only three appear in the entire game. Two appear in the Desert Land while one appears in the Hand Trap levels of Dark Land. Fire Bros. reappeared in New Super Mario Bros.. However, they are only found in World 8-7, right after the checkpoint.

Flare, a Fire Bro., is a fighter in the Glitz Pit and the only Fire Bro. in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. Like other Fire Bros., he spits fireballs to attack; however, these fireballs not only damage opponents, they cause them to catch fire as well.

Fire Bros. also make an appearance in Super Paper Mario. They are encountered in Castle Bleck, and act just like they did in Super Mario Bros. 3. Some Fire Bros. also have the ability to flip between dimensions.

Mario Superstar Baseball
Fire Bro. was playable for the first time in Mario Superstar Baseball as a color swap for Hammer Bro., once he's unlocked. He also appeared on Bowser's team in challenge mode.
