      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.

Magcargo

Generation

Magcargo belongs to Generation II.

Type

Magcargo Pokemon has two types: fire and rock.

Evolution

Magcargo evolved from Slugma, starting at level 38.

Characteristics

Magcargo looks like a snail. It is made from bright red lava and has no limbs, so it moves only by dragging its body. It has large, oval, yellow eyes with small pupils.

It has a broad nose, a wide mouth, and two tiny drops of lava hanging from its upper jaw. On its back, solid lava forms uneven structures and cracks from which small amounts of flames are emitted. Magcargo can reach temperatures of 18,000 Fahrenheit, which can instantly evaporate water when it comes in contact with it.

Flames of fire constantly circulate in its body; sometimes, it leaks out from the cracks of its shell. The shell on its back is fragile and can shatter down with a slight touch or collision. However, Magcargo can quickly heal itself by diving into the burning lava. Magcargo lives in the mountains near volcanoes.
