Abilities

    • Magma-Armor

      This Pokemon cannot be frozen. If a Pokemon is frozen and acquires this ability, it will immediately thaw out; this includes when regaining a lost ability upon leaving battle. Overworld: If any Pokemon in the party has this ability, each egg in the party has its hatch counter decreased by 2 (rather than 1) each step cycle, making eggs hatch roughly twice as quickly. This effect does not stack if multiple Pokemon have this ability or flame body.

    • Flame-Body

      Whenever a move makes contact with this Pokemon, the move's user has a 30% chance of being burned. Overworld: If any Pokemon in the party has this ability, each egg in the party has its hatch counter decreased by 2 (rather than 1) each step cycle, making eggs hatch roughly twice as quickly. This effect does not stack if multiple Pokemon have this ability or magma armor.

Hidden Abilities

    • Weak-Armor

      Whenever a physical move hits this Pokemon, its Speed rises one stage and its Defense falls one stage. This ability triggers on every hit of a multiple-hit move.

Slugma

Generation

Slugma belongs to Generation II.

Type

Slugma is a Fire-type Pokémon.

Evolution

It evolves into Magcargos, starting from level 38.

Characteristics

Slugma is made from burning lava. It doesn’t have hands and feet and cannot move around. It has a burning red body that fades down along its edges. It has large yellow eyes with very tiny pupils. 

It has a slightly triangular head with two ears spreading like a flame. Two lava drops are dripping from its upper jaws. Its body doesn’t have any particular shape. It takes nutrients and oxygen with the help of its circulatory system, which is entirely made from lava. It keeps moving to prevent its body from cooling down. 

Furthermore, it never sleeps so that its body does not get hardened. If its body begins to cool, it becomes weak and breaks apart. Therefore, it always looks for warm places and invites other Slugma to live and stay warm together near volcanos and mountains.
