Numel-Lava is a held item introduced in the Pokémon series, designed to augment the abilities of certain Fire-type Pokémon, particularly Numel and its evolution, Camerupt. When held, Numel-Lava boosts the power of Fire-type moves by 20%, solidifying its value as an essential item for enhancing offensive capabilities during battles.
Effects:
- Fire-Type Move Boost: The primary effect of Numel-Lava is to elevate the damage output of Fire-type moves employed by the Pokémon holding it by 20%. This feature enhances its effectiveness for Pokémon that heavily depend on Fire-type attacks.
- Stat Enhancement: In specific versions of the game, Numel-Lava can offer a minor boost to the holder’s Special Attack stat, thereby amplifying the strength of special Fire-type moves even further.
- Resistance to Fire Damage: When held, Numel-Lava occasionally grants the Pokémon a temporary resistance to inbound Fire-type moves, which results in a reduction of damage taken and potentially alters the outcome of a battle.
