Flavour Text
Ruby	Molten magma courses throughout SLUGMA's circulatory system. If this POKéMON is chilled, the magma cools and hardens. Its body turns brittle and chunks fall off, reducing its size.
Sapphire	SLUGMA does not have any blood in its body. Instead, intensely hot magma circulates throughout this POKéMON's body, carrying essential nutrients and oxygen to its organs.
Emerald	It is a species of POKéMON that lives in volcanic areas. If its body cools, its skin hardens and immobilizes it. To avoid that, it sleeps near magma.
Fire Red	A common sight in volcanic areas, it slowly slithers around in a constant search for warm places.
Leaf Green	It never sleeps. It has to keep moving because if it stopped, its magma body would cool and harden.
