In Pikmin Evolution
The Magmander is a species of amphibiland appearing in Pikmin Evolution. It is an adult of its species, having a body size between that of the smaller Gildemandwee and much larger Gildemander. In terms of appearance, it is jet-black with glowing orange eyes and webbed toes. Instead of an antenna, it has what appears to be a blowhole from which it can eject smoke and ash that is produced on the special glands on its back. As the name suggests, the Magmander can secrete magma from the three pores on its back that serves as protection from would-be predators. The magma also drips off the creature, forming pools of it that it wades through and making its already sweltering desert habitat even hotter. Every Magmander herd, which consists of 4-7 individuals, is led by an alpha, which has a yellow crest on its head and has the unique ability to lob explosive rocks from its mouth, disintegrating everything caught in the blast. Magmanders have an intense rivalry with Cryomanders, the two regularly engaging in turf wars over territory, often to the death.

Defeating a Magmander requires attacking the three pores on its back. The lava pools the creatures create will only dry upon killing every member of the herd, but killing the alpha first will considerably weaken the rest of the herd, making them slower and far less organized. Due to its molten body, a Magmander can only be harmed by Elixer Pikmin, as they are not only immune to the magma they produce but are also empowered by it. However, they are still liable to be eaten, especially by the alpha, which can easily swallow up to 100 Pikmin in one lick of its tongue. Despite that, an effective tactic is to clog the Magmander's blowhole by tossing a charged Elixer Pikmin into it while the beast prepares to lick, blasting away the magma covering its back, rendering its pores vulnerable while preventing it from making more magma for some time. Another, and more preferred, option may be to use watery blue syrups or icy cyan syrups, as either will extinguish the magma's flames and rapidly cool the magma into rock, clogging the Magmander's pores and preventing it from producing more magma until the rock is shattered by an explosion or an Alloy Pikmin's thud. Should the opportunity arise, a captain could lead a herd of Magmanders to a herd of Cryomanders to instigate a fight between the two, and use Pikmin to finish off the victorious side once the conflict is over. Overall, the Magmander has solid defenses that make it a formidable opponent, but its greatest enemy may just be its elemental counterpart.
