Track This Zuko is a firebender which basically means that he can control fire. He can create it and 'bend' it to his will. On the show it is made clear that Zuko is still learning how to fully control firebending, but he has been rapidly improving and growing stronger.
He can breath fire, create flames, throw fireballs, set off sprinklers and many more fancy tricks. He is also able to protect himself against fire and keep himself from getting burned, but he can not do this forever.
Some firebenders are also able to bend lightning. This is a more difficult skill and one can not control lightning like they do fire, they can only direct it elsewhere. While Zuko has the potential to do this, he hasn't been able to accomplish it yet.
