Now, now, datriot, you're just not trying. :P
Art is psychedelic, which figures as it's done by the psychedelic artist. Heh.
HP: 80. Staying put, not going anywhere.
Dual Armor. Logical and playing on the video games but it's a bonus and the double effect can come in handy.
Smokescreen: Harsh damage and of the favorite subtler effects.
Extra Flame: Strong damage and good for the ex rampant metagame. Very viable in Modified, still strong in Unlimited.
Energy Cost: one fire to work, can be anywhere but best in a dual type deck.
Retreat cost: Two, surprising as Magcargo is so slow.
9/10. Extra effects, and strong damage and staying put nicely. What's not to love?
