Flavor Text

: When it breathes deeply, heat waves form around its body, making it hard to see clearly.
: The scorching fire exhaled by Magmar forms heat waves around its body, making it hard to see the Pokémon clearly.

: Found near the mouth of a volcano. This fire-breather’s body temperature is nearly 2,200 degrees Fahrenheit.
: Born in the spout of a volcano, its body is covered by flames that shimmer like the sun.
: In battle, Magmar blows out intensely hot flames from all over its body to intimidate its opponent. This Pokémon’s fiery bursts create heat waves that ignite grass and trees in its surroundings.

: When it’s tired, it leaps into the mouth of a volcano and soaks its body in magma to ease its weariness. Its body burns at 2,192 degrees F.
: When angered, it spouts brilliant fire from all over its body. It doesn’t calm down until its opponent has burned to ash.
: Its entire body is burning. When it breathes, the temperature rises. When it sneezes, flames shoot out!
: The hotter the place, the better they feel. Magmar in Alola are said to be hardier than those in other areas.
