I really can't understand why its power is 60, since we have Fire Fang (for example), which has the same power AND can flinch + burn the opponent.

Then you say "hey, Flamethrower is a Special Attack while Fire Fang is a Physical one". Ok, but what about the power's discrepancy in the official game? Come on, Fire Fang is 65 PWR 95% ACC, while Flamethrower is 95 PWR and 100% ACC. Also, Pokémon tend to learn Flamethrower at later levels.

Thank you for your time.

Use flamethrower. It hits it's target twice PLUS it hits anything else that comes into the flame.

It's like having a power 60 move that has a cooldown of 9 (while everything else is 18) AND has potential to hit more than one poke.

Flamethrower is one of the best fire moves in the game at the moment.

Just noticed the "double hit" and the AoE effect you're talking about. Great move, I just didn't know its properties before using it (nothing is said in the description).

Not only the best fire-type move (IMO), but one of the best in general, I might say :D

Thank you for your answer!

Flamethrower is like hydro pump, it can hit multiple targets at once, it is better than fire fang IMO, just wanted to say that hydro pump and aqua tail are kind of the same thing

Inferno just came out on the 3.6 update (lvl 44 vulpix) and even though vulpix is weak the move makes it pretty good. Inferno has a 100 base power, 18 cooldown, and always inflicts burn. It hits 1 poke but the damage and burn make it my new favorite fire attack. I'll still keep using flamethrower though for groups but against single enemies Inferno is awesome, just noting that lol.

flamethrower should be like in the official games, that still is the best way, actually every move should be like in the games (or most of them, some like earthquicke should stay like they are now).

earthquike? And lol, the TD is really different from the actual games. I dont see the point of making the moves have the same effect.

I would like that too rarekwiebus, but i think it's impossible. Maybe when the new mode comes in the game, the attacks will be like the original games....
Sorry for the bad English :P I got tired of putting that under my message XD

i heard it hitted twice, so i checked it out and they're right, so flamethrower has a power of 60x2 every 1,8 seconds. first i also thought it was a weak move, untill i discovered that fact.
