Camerupt (Japanese: バクーダ Bakuuda) is a dual-type Fire/Ground Pokémon.

It evolves from Numel at level 33.

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. They also have a stout body with red shaggy fur, a tan furless muzzle and three blue rings on each side of it's body.

Gender differences

The two volcanoes on a female Camerupt's back are bigger than the ones on a male.

Special abilities

The volcanoes on Camerupt's back will erupt if the Pokémon becomes angered, spewing hot molten rock. This allows it to be able to use damaging Fire moves like Lava Plume and Eruption.

Behavior

Much like real camels, Camerupt are usually placid, but may be very stubborn and bad tempered. They can become uncontrolablly angry when struck in the face.

Habitat

Mountain Pokémon

Camerupt are usually found near mountains of volcanic origin.
