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 dangerVsauce 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)
Look at these crazy snails
I love my blind acidic snailmon, I love his goofy face.
>>59420821I'd still hesitate to touch one
I can't be sure but I think this person is about to lose an arm
>>59421407Goodra should have kept the green eyes
>>59428350Trvke
>>59420821can 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.
>>59433085Basically 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
>>59433691oh, 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.

Goodra fetishposting has been remarkably low..... This is both surprising, and nice
>>59434391hmmm
>nobody posts the chinese scrolls snail
Let's change that.
>>59436345Well fuck, now I wish sneaky snail had those regal looking lower twigs in the official design
>>59436348looks too much like sylveon feelers ngl.
>>59432617such a good little helper!
>make it evolve into Heatran I'm baseding ouuuut
>>59425742slugma is probably like rapidash, in the anime you could touch rapidash's flame as long as it trusted you the flame wouldn't burn
>>59445566What a little cutie
>>59433085It wouldn't set the world on fire but it would blind you and give you one hell of a sunburn.
>>59434605Now someone might do it to spite you.
>>59441796does he not like berries?
A lost brother...
>>59420821>gimme a hug mannoI will not hug the slug
>>59420821When life is rough, you just gotta slug it out :)
>>59423688>>59424799What? They're not slugs
>>59458139what about honorary slug
Nigger
>>59435091>I was merely pretending to be retarded
>>59459259No cephalopods in the gastropod thread, make your own.
>>59420821Explain, is it because they're relatively small pokémon so heat dissipates quite easily?
