Those fun facts you see online about how Slugma is so hot it would blind you and singe everything within a country mile are all very wrong, I'm sorry. People who say this don't actually know how thermodynamics works. Yes it's as hot as the surface of the sun, but that's not as big a deal as it sounds. In reality;

>Slugma would glow in the dark, but not be blinding. just a tad brighter than real lava
>Slugma would not melt through the floor (unless it was a really shit floor or it stayed in one spot for hours)
>Slugma would be mildly uncomfortable to stand right next to, but you could stand ~5 feet away without worry of any danger

Vsauce lied to you. (also pls give them a fire/steel 3rd stage evo in gen x based on those geothermal vent snails with metal shells, I'm begging you)

can you explain in greater detail for a brainlet like me? my monkey brain hears 'hot as the surface as the sun' and thinks standing near it would catch me on fire, like standing near lava.

Basically air and surfaces can transfer only so much heat per second, the slug's explosive heat is concentrated only in their bodies, while only a small part can be actually irradiated/dissipated
>>
>>59433691
oh, so because magcargo is small, it can only transfer so much heat at a time because of its surface area? i guess that makes sense. basically all the factoid people are treating it as if it's putting out the heat of the sun all the time, but like those hot knife/1000 degree iron ball videos, it would have to directly touch something to really fuck it up.

slugma is probably like rapidash, in the anime you could touch rapidash's flame as long as it trusted you the flame wouldn't burn

Explain, is it because they're relatively small pokémon so heat dissipates quite easily?
