Remember being a kid and watching that episode of the Ashnime where Ash battles Blaine in his gym on the volcano? Remember how fucking badass and terrifying this thing was? It's been among my favorite Fire types ever since, and I remember always searching the Burned Tower in Gold version until I caught one.
Shame it's evolution is nowhere near as cool-looking. I mean, Magmortar is great in concept, but it's got those derpy clown lips, fat gut, and silly shoulders that make it look silly (on a related note: Mega Magmortar with Mega Launcher and a signature move when?)

I also wanna raise up a Magmar just for funsies in Battlespot random matchup. Would he be best off going Choice, mixed, or something crazy like SubPunch or Belly Drum?
