Slugma (Japanese: マグマッグ Magmag; German: Schneckmag; French: Limagna) is a Fire-type Pokémon.

Pokédex entries

Pokémon Gold

It never sleeps. It has to keep moving because if it stopped, its magma body would cool and harden.

Pokémon Ruby

Molten magma courses throughout Slugma's circulatory system. If this Pokémon is chilled, the magma cools and hardens. Its body turns brittle and chunks fall off, reducing its size.

Pokémon Emerald

It is a species of Pokémon that lives in volcanic areas. If its body cools, its skin hardens and immobilizes it. To avoid that, it sleeps near magma.

Name origin

Slugma's name is a combination of slug and magma. Its Japanese name is simply a repeated shortening of magma.

It appears to have been based on a slug.
