Camerupt is a quadruped Pokémon that resembles a {{wp|Bactrian camel}}. It has two gray volcanoes on its back. The two volcanoes on a female's back are bigger than those on a male. It also has a stout body with red shaggy fur and three blue ring-shaped markings on both sides. It has bangs on top of its head, droopy ears, and a tan furless muzzle.

As Mega Camerupt, the humps on its back have transformed into one large and very active volcano. Its fur expands and grows to a point where only its hooves can be seen, and its ears and the tufts on its head grow thicker and longer, standing on end. It gains a gray M on the front of its face and loses the three blue rings on its body. Magma is constantly bubbling up from within its body. It has a deep hatred of water or any moisture, and has an explosive personality and a short temper. The volcano on its back erupts constantly in an effort to intimidate its foes.<ref name= "Mega">http://www.pokemonrubysapphire.com/en-us/pokemon/new-mega-evolutions/mega-camerupt</ref>

Its body contains amounts of molten lava of 18,000&nbsp;°F (10,000&nbsp;°C), which erupts out of its humps if the Pokémon is angered. As shown [[AG046|in the anime]], it can become uncontrollably angry when it is struck in the face. It lives in the {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Mountain Pokémon|craters of volcanoes}}.

* Camerupt's [[Pokédex]] entries for {{v2|Emerald}}, {{game3|HeartGold and SoulSilver|HeartGold, and SoulSilver|s}} say that the volcanoes on its back erupt every 10 years. However, its entries from {{game3|Ruby and Sapphire|Sapphire,|s}} {{game3|FireRed and LeafGreen|FireRed, LeafGreen|s}}, and [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire|Alpha Sapphire]], as well as dialogue from the Mystery Dungeon series, claim that they erupt whenever it is angry, which is also shown in the {{pkmn|anime}}.
