Biology
Physiology
Camerupt is very similar in physiology to a Bactrian Camel. However, instead of the usual humps on its back, it has volcanoes. Camerupt's body contains large amounts of molten lava, which it occasionally erupts out of these volcanoes.
Gender differences
The two volcanoes on a female Camerupt's back are bigger than the ones on a male.
Special abilities
Behavior
Much like real camels, Camerupt are usually placid, but may be stubborn and bad tempered. However, they get uncontrollably angry when hit in the face.
