Pokémon Power: Hot Plate ヒートプレート

As long as Dark Magcargo is your Active Pokémon, whenever a player puts a Baby Pokémon or Basic Pokémon onto his or her Bench from his or her hand, this power does 10 damage to that Pokémon. (Don't apply Weakness and Resistance.) This power stops working if Dark Magcargo is Asleep, Confused, or Paralyzed.

Ball of Flame かえんだん 20

You may discard a Energy card attached to Dark Magcargo when you use this attack. If you do and if your opponent has any Benched Pokémon, choose 1 of them and this attack does 20 damage to it. (Don't apply Weakness and Resistance for Benched Pokémon.)

Trivia

Although this Pokémon is level 36, Slugma does not evolve into Magcargo until level 38.

Origin

Ball of Flame's Japanese name is that of Searing Shot, a move later introduced in the Generation V Pokémon games that Magcargo cannot learn. This card's Pokédex entry comes from Pokémon Silver, though it is heavily reworded.
