Magmar's evolution was revealed three episodes later 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 {{status|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 Ash recalled it for {{AP|Buizel}}.

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; while Buizel blasted through easily, Magmortar had vanished. It was revealed to have jumped into the air, landing a hit with Smog and poisoning Buizel. While Buizel choked, Paul recalled Magmortar. It wasn't used for the rest of the battle, but the burn it inflicted on Pikachu continued to affect him during a later battle against {{TP|Paul|Ursaring}}.
