| Ruby | TORCHIC sticks with its TRAINER, following behind with unsteady steps. This POKéMON breathes fire of over 1,800 degrees F, including fireballs that leave the foe scorched black. | ||
| Sapphire | TORCHIC has a place inside its body where it keeps its flame. Give it a hug - it will be glowing with warmth. This POKéMON is covered all over by a fluffy coat of down. | ||
| Emerald | If attacked, it strikes back by spitting balls of fire it forms in its stomach. A TORCHIC dislikes darkness because it can't see its surroundings. | ||
| FireRed | It has a flame sac inside its belly that perpetually burns. It feels warm if it is hugged. | ||
