How I'd Buff Camerupt

Camerupt is one of Hoenn's most iconic pokemon, yet it's not a very good pokemon at that. So I buffed it.

Legit love you for making Camerupt usable while simultaneously buffing the tragedy that is Magma Armor

[@awesomeraichu59342]

It's honestly supsrising that Magma Arrmor was one of the first "signature" (kinda) abilties, yet it was so eh

[@ahnaftahmid2440]

@awesomeraichu59342 I sincerely believe abilities need more revamps so they can stand out from eachother, not just the useless ones like Magma armor and Ball fetch, but so that stuff like Filter and Solid Rock can stand out from eachother

your first pkmn game omega ruby is insane

[@awesomeraichu59342]

If it weren't for Omega Ruby, Sceptile wouldn't have been my first ever pokemon and my 2nd favorite pokemon of all time

Outside of the 4x water weakness it only has one other weakness in ground. So, I'd say fire/ground is actually a decent defensive type.

[@JRG333]

If it wasn't for water type being so abundant and not such a strong and common type.

Honestly a solid buff concept!! I'm a big fan of the Solid Rock buff too considering every mon that has it has at least one double weakness. Personally for stats, I'd probably go for 80/80/100 bulk, and maybe bump SpAtk up to 110. I would also replace Magma Armor for something like Stamina because of the camel inspiration. I actually had a Magma Armor rework idea, where it would become the Slugma line's signature ability and basically be a Fire type version of Water Bubble. Prevent freezing, power up Fire moves, and half incoming Water damage. Great video as always!!

I feel like if you wanted to go a different route with magma armor you could make it similar to rough skin but dealing fire type damage. (Working like stealth rocks accounting for type weaknesses)

[@awesomeraichu59342]

Intresting concept. Although I'm curious as to how it would play out?. My guess is that Fire types would take no damage if they make contact, but Bug and Grass types would be given another issue they have to deal with, as if they didn't have it rough already.

[@draxolot4716]

@@awesomeraichu59342 I didn’t think of that but you could probably make it do less damage overall like doing 1/16th hp instead of 1/8th. this would also balance with any other effects it would have.

[@tomnorton4277]

You didn't do the Mega Evolution. There's only one change required. Give Mega Camerupt Drought instead of Sheer Force. Obviously, that shouldn't be its regular ability but Mega's are supposed to be overpowered and although Sheer Force is great on Mega Camerupt from an attacking perspective, it doesn't do anything to assist with its crippling Water weakness.
