Magmortar's Tier Ranking & Meta Analysis

Read meta analysis

Magmortar PvE Analysis

Recommended moves

Magmortar is only decent, dishing out damage numbers in the range of Skeledirge, which is among the weaker Blast Burn users. You can definitely use it against Tier 1 Raid Bosses, but you're bound to have better options, including something as simple and accessible as Blast Burn Charizard.

Coming to Gym defense, its bulk isn't reasonable enough to justify usage.

Magmortar PvP Analysis

Recommended moves

🔵 Great League

Magmortar has a large variety of Charged Attacks, but even then, it's pretty bad in these battles. With high ATK and low bulk stats, Magmortar struggles to fit in the Great League’s CP restrictions. The situation is so bad that Magmortar’s stat product is even lower than that of Magmar, which itself is underwhelming in the Great League.

🟡 Ultra League

Another League, same story. Magmortar has a lower stat product and lower bulk than Magmar, its own pre-evolution. It gets barely a few wins, nowhere enough to make you run it in PvP.

🟣 Master League

The Master League is too overbearing for poor Magmortar.
