Ability 1 | Magma Armor | The Pokémon's hot magma coating prevents it from being frozen. It also makes hatching eggs quicker. |
Ability 2 | Flame Body | Contact with the Pokémon may burn the attacker. It also makes hatching eggs quicker. |
Hidden | Weak Armor | The Pokémon's Defense stat is lowered when it takes damage from physical moves, but its Speed stat is sharply boosted. |
Magcargo's shell is actually its skin that hardened as a result of cooling. Its shell is very brittle and fragile - just touching it causes it to crumble apart. This Pokémon returns to its original size by dipping itself in magma.
