Slugma’s flavor text describes its magma-based body, emphasizing the need for constant movement to prevent it from cooling and hardening. The Pokémon has a Water weakness, dealing an additional 10 damage when attacked. It was released as a Common rarity card in February 2008. The artwork was created by artist Masakazu Fukuda.
