Magmar was finally shown battling in Paul's match against [[Pyramid King Brandon]] in ''[[DP128|A Pyramiding Rage!]]''. It was the first Pokémon chosen by Paul to battle him. He quickly recalled it after he saw Brandon chose {{DL|Brandon's Regis|Regirock}} to battle it. He sent it out again to battle {{DL|Brandon's Regis|Registeel}}. Registeel was able to shrug off Flamethrower with little difficulty and struck with {{m|Iron Head}}, not causing much damage but Magmar [[flinching|flinched]] and couldn't use Will-O-Wisp. Paul recalled Magmar but after all of Paul's other Pokémon were defeated, Paul sent out Magmar to battle Regirock again, who absorbed Flamethrower and took Magmar out with {{m|Shock Wave}}. | Magmar was finally shown battling in Paul's match against [[Pyramid King Brandon]] in ''[[DP128|A Pyramiding Rage!]]''.

Magmar's evolution was revealed in ''[[DP131|Pedal to the Mettle!]]'' when Paul chose Magmortar to battle [[Ash's Pikachu]]. They begun the battle in ''[[DP132|Evolving Strategies!]]'', where Pikachu got badly {{DL|Status ailment|burn}}ed because of Magmortar's {{a|Flame Body}}. Magmortar's powerful Flamethrower blocked Pikachu's {{m|Thunderbolt}} and it then cleverly used {{m|Rock Tomb}} to damage Pikachu during its {{m|Volt Tackle}}. Magmortar used {{m|Smog}} in an attempt to choke Pikachu but this was blocked by [[Counter Shield]]. However, Pikachu's attempt to follow up with {{m|Iron Tail}} did not cause nearly enough damage to Magmortar, and | Magmar's evolution was revealed in ''[[DP131|Pedal to the Mettle!]]'' when Paul chose Magmortar to battle [[Ash's Pikachu]].

Despite the type disadvantage, Magmortar was able to hold its own, managing to carry on after a direct hit from {{m|Aqua Jet}}. It then used a wall of Rock Tombs to block {{m|Water Pulse}}, which turned out to be a distraction as whilst Buizel blasted through easily, Magmortar had vanished. It was revealed to have jumped into the air, landing a hit with Smog and poisoning Buizel. Whilst Buizel choked, Paul recalled Magmortar. | Despite the type disadvantage, Magmortar was able to hold its own, managing to carry on after a direct hit from {{m|Aqua Jet}}.
