Strategy Overview

Magmar is a potent wallbreaker with its great coverage and decent Speed tier. Magmar makes for a solid lead with how it can immediately pressure Pokemon like Metang and Relicanth. It can also pick off weakened Purugly and other Pokemon with Mach Punch. Magmar can also be an amazing wallbreaker mid-game, especially if it can safely get up a Substitute. It is generally vulnerable to fast Pokemon like Purguly and Electabuzz, in addition to Choice Scarf users like Golduck.
