Is lightning redirection a fire bending move? I always thought it was a martial arts move that anyone could do, even non-benders.

We only see Firebender doing it until now so it's not sure.

I thought iroh said something about it being something he he developed with water bending in mind?

Yeah, He learned it from studying Water Bending. But in shows no one else does it other than Firebenders.

It's an application of waterbending principles to firebending practice. Wisdom from many places.
