This is a nice entry. The quality of the info is very high However, since I'm also quite a Relicanth fan, I'm missing some things. The most important part that I'm missing is the lack in change in Relicanth over thousands of years. Like the IRL equivalent Coelacanth, Relicanth has not changed it's morphology since pre-historic times. This implies a combination of a very sturdy set of genes and a lack of evolutionary pressure.

Feel free to copy any of those phrases if you feel like it (though it's best you leave out the Coelacanth reference since it wouldn't make any sence in the pokemon world)

I did put that  Look in the intro.

That's fine Xetroc! I knew it was very similar. I like your sentence fuzzy!


I re-wrote the entire biology section from scratch this time instead of copy-pasting it from Slugma.

Magcargo is the evolved form of Slugma.  Magcargo is a snail-like Pokemon made of magma. Magcargo's internal body temperature can reach 10,000 degrees Celsius causing it to vaporize water on contact. Magcargo live for thousands of years as long as they continually re-supply themselves with magma.


Magcargo consume minerals to survive. They are also able to incorporate magma and lava into their bodies for healing.


Magcargo live on mountains and in volcanoes close to magma so they can keep themselves hot at all times. They lead groups of Slugma and weaker Magcargo.


Magcargo's body is almost entirely made of liquid magma. However, unlike their pre-evolution Slugma, they also sport a round shell made of hardened magma. This shell can be easily broken but can also be easily reformed by dipping themselves in magma. When the shell is broken, Magcargo actually becomes faster.  Their shell also leaks jets of hot flame in random locations. Magcargo are otherwise very similar to Slugma. They also have no limbs and instead slither on the ground making them very slow. They gain an extra magma drop on each side of their mouth and still have the same magma-resistant eyes. However, Magcargo's eyes very rarely don't melt when they die and can be sold on the black market for very high prices. It is thought if a Magcargo dies protecting their trainer or a Slugma under their care their eyes will remain intact. Magcargo are usually very docile but might lash out in anger if a Slugma under their care is hurt. They use the heat produced by their magma to produce powerful fire attacks and are also capable of using Rock and Poison-type attacks. Being a fully evolved Pokemon, they are also able to learn Hyper Beam and other similar moves.


Because this Pokemon is the evolved form of another Pokemon and is rare in the wild the PLC has classified Magcargo as a Class B Pokemon; limited capture allowance but no restrictions for use in battle. The selling of Magcargo eyes is a federal offense punishable by 10-20 years in prison.


Magcargo is very similar to Slugma so not much is different.

Slugma are small, slug-like Pokemon made of magma. To keep themselves from cooling they never sleep and stay in constant motion. If they stop, they may cool and break into pieces.


Slugma consume minerals to survive. They are also able to incorporate magma and lava into their bodies for healing.


Slugma live on mountains and in volcanoes close to magma so they can keep themselves hot at all times.


Slugma are made almost entirely of magma. They have no limbs and they slither along the ground. The magma that makes up their body constantly bubbles and it is also used in the same way blood is used in other creatures. Slugma have two, large yellow eyes with small, black pupils on their heads with two drips of magma on either side. On the top of their head is a flame-like formation of magma. They use their magma to generate heat for many different Fire-type attacks. They can also use Rock-type attacks because of their close relation with stone and are able to use a few poison attacks because of smoke. Their eyes are made of a special kind of crystal that seem to be immune to the magma that makes up their bodies. However, when a Slugma dies their eyes lose their immunity and melt instantly. Slugma are also forced to refresh their magma similar to other creatures losing and gaining cells.


Slugma are able to evolve once into Magcargo at level 38.


Because this Pokemon is very common and in no danger of extinction the PLC has classified Slugma as a Class D Pokemon; no limits on capture and use for battling. However, care must be taken in towns and forests because of their very hot nature.



Second go at making an entry. I had to make up some things since Bulbapedia didn't have a lot of info. I also plan to do Magcargo tomorrow evening. Also, I recommend we have a subforum of something for these because if we get these going this forum will fill up with them. Approved ones should at least be moved somewhere else.

Tauros are classified as violent, mammalian quadrupeds with three tails. They use these tails to whip themselves into a frenzy and won't stop until they hit something or exhaust themselves. Only male Tauros have ever been found though they are known to breed with Miltank. They tend to lock horns when fighting each other.


Tauros are herbivores that graze on various grasses and other plants.


Tauros mostly live in wide open plains where they gather in herds. There, they are able to rage freely without thought to damaging things. They are also raised on large farms by humans.


Tauros are hooved Pokemon covered in light-brown fur with a thick, dark-brown mane on their neck. They have a pair of curved horns on their heads that they use for battling and for show along with 3 round, hard points that help take impacts. Their trademark feature is their three tails, each ending in a fluff of grey fur.

Tauros battle by using physical attacks like Tackle and Horn Attack because of their strong, fast bodies. Like other Normal-type Pokemon, Tauros is also able to use special attacks like Flamethrower by tapping into a mysterious organ that is present in many other Normal-type species.


Because this Pokemon is very common and in no danger of extinction the PLC has classified Tauros as a Class D Pokemon; no limits on capture and use for battling.


This is the first time I've ever done anything like this. Any help and critique is welcome!

Inactivity isn't your fault D: I'm not much of a forum poster plus I just got a full-time job. Others have their reasons as well. But if you feel like you should leave I can't stop you.

Hope everything goes well for you guys :3

If it is for the MMO then I agree with Xetroc. Though it is nice, having that much stuff going on can be taxing.
