    Magmar's Tier Ranking & Meta Analysis

    Read meta analysis

    Magmar PvE Analysis

    Recommended moves

    • Fire Attacker:FireEmberFireFlamethrower

    Even though Magmar has a decent ATK, it is much lower than the offensive strength of most Fire types in Pokémon GO. Even with a 200+ ATK stat, its DPS is lower than Shadow Charmeleon, Heatmor, and Simisear. This makes it subpar even for ⚔️ Raids of Tier 1. With poor bulk, Magmar doesn't even cut it in 🛡️ Gyms.

    Magmar PvP Analysis

    Recommended moves

    • Great League:FightingKarate ChopFireFire PunchGroundScorching Sands
    • Ultra League:FightingKarate ChopFireFire PunchGroundScorching Sands

    🔵 Great League

    Magmar is extremely fragile, so even with high energy gains, it is unable to leave a mark in combat. Its wins are severely inconsistent, being unable to even beat many Pokémon that are weak to its attacks. It's best to avoid Magmar altogether when it comes to PvP.

    🟡 Ultra League

    Magmar is unable to function in the Ultra League due to the same reasons it fails in the Great League. Flimsy and inadequate damage output make Magmar a poor contender for these battles.

    🟣 Master League

    With a max CP of only 2706 and a terrible spread of stats, Magmar shouldn't be used in the Master League.
