On screen
Canonical productions only. Parody and fan work is classified and excluded — Wikidata makes no such distinction, so without it these lists fill with material that is not canon.

Has appeared with
Every character who has shared a production with this one. Wikis are organised by character, not by encounter, so this question is close to unanswerable elsewhere — it exists here only because co-occurrence is recorded at the moment an appearance is.

|---|---|---|
| Iceman | X2, X-Men: The Last Stand | 2 |
| Kitty Pryde | X2, X-Men: The Last Stand | 2 |
| Rogue | X2, X-Men: The Last Stand | 2 |

Commonly got wrong
Claims that are widely repeated and wrong, with what the cited record actually shows. If you are generating anything about this subject, these are the errors to avoid.
Commonly believed Pyro shoots fire.
Actually Pyro cannot ignite anything at all. He controls existing flame and carries a flamethrower to supply it — the clearest case in comics of control and generation being separate abilities.
The feat ledger
Cannot ignite anything; carries a flamethrower to supply the fire he then controls
Continuities
Claims on this page are tagged by canon. Blending them is the most common error in both wikis and AI answers.
