Pokemon Scarlet & Violet's brand new Indigo Disk DLC is here, allowing you to catch brand new critters not seen before in the game.

Magby can be found in two places inside the artificial Terrarium open world of The Indigo Disk DLC. The first is the outdoors of the Savannah Biome with its yellow grass fields, and the second is the Coastal Biome. You will find it easier to track down it in this second area if you are situated primarily within the Torchlit Labyrinth caves as compared to the open Savannah.

Assuming you find one, you will also be able to evolve Magby into its two subsequent evolutions: Magmar and Magmortar. While obtaining the former is easy, the latter has some specific requirements to be met for evolution in The Indigo Disk. Read on to find out the details.

How to evolve Magby into Magmar, Magmortar, and how to get a Magmarizer?

Before we dive into the specifics, let's take a look at Magby's stats:

• Type: Fire
• HP: 45
• Attack: 75
• Defense: 37
• Sp. Attack: 70
• Sp. Defense: 55
• Speed: 83
• Total: 365

As it is a solo Fire-type, it is effective against Grass, Bug, Ice, and Steel-type Pokemon. It is weak to Ground, Rock, and Water, and its attacks are resisted by Dragon-types. It evolves into Magmar at level 30. Here are its stats:

• Type: Fire
• Ability: Flame Body - Has a 30% chance to burn the opponent if it attacks the user with a physical move.
• HP: 65
• Attack: 95
• Defense: 57
• Sp. Attack: 100
• Sp. Defense: 85
• Speed: 93
• Total: 495

Magmar evolves in Magmortar if traded while it is holding a Magmarizer in the Indigo Disk DLC. This held item can be purchased for 250 BP at the Blueberry Academy's School Store. BP Stands for Blueberry Points, and these are obtained using BBQ or Blueberry Quests, which are different challenges of various scopes and sizes. Here are the stats for Magmortar:

• Type: Fire
• Ability: Flame Body - Has a 30% chance to burn the opponent if it attacks the user with a physical move.
• HP: 75
• Attack: 95
• Defense: 67
• Sp. Attack: 125
• Sp. Defense: 95
• Speed: 83
• Total: 540

The Magmarizer requirement means you can evolve your Magmar into Magmortar immediately after it evolves, assuming you have a friend to trade it with.
