Description
It was suggested to me to try to make a less industrial-Alola form for Magnemite, and this was what I came up with!Related content

The design could be better as it only vaguely look likes Magnemite and the streaks of lava are somewhat jarring.

The member who requested this also requested that it not look so industrial so of course if it were more natural, it wouldn't look as much like Magnemite.

This is fascinating, I could see Magnemite adapting to a volcanic area by shedding is metal skin and replacing its internal electric supply with molten rock so that it can still levitate while also retaining some of its prior moved from back when it was an Electric/Steel type. The design looks absolutely great, though if we're to add minor criticism, perhaps you can add a feature on top of the Fire/Rock Magnemite's head where the screw used to be, signifying that it is part of the Magnemite family (perhaps molten glass, you know like the kind they make decorative pieces out of). You did an amazing job with Magnemite, now I kinda want to see the entire evolutionary line if your up to it, but if not, work at your own pace with what you want to do. Thank you for taking my suggestion, I highly appreciate it

Except the whole concept of Magnemite is that it's a magnet.
This Alola Form makes no sense.

If you read my description, you would know that it was a request to not look so industrial (ie. a magnet). By changing its type to rock I could stay true to its magnetic capabilities (see Nosepass - Rock type which is also magnetic without actually being a magnet.)
Also, Magnemite appears to be named after the mineral Magnetite, which occurs in almost all forms of igneous rock. Igneous rock is formed through the cooling and solidification of magma or lava. Hence, the design actually makes a lot of sense.

I get that it sounds similar, but considering it's original form doesn't look like it's made of it, I wouldn't use that as a reason.
The rest of it, I can see your reasoning, but I do still have a problem. Mostly the fact that there are still areas in Alola that appear to be similar to the areas Magnemite live in other regions. That's not to say that it would be impossible for Magnemite to get an Alola Form, but I still find it unlikely.

I thought about adding something to the top as well. I see this form as a more natural older form that sometimes undergoes heating/cooling/compressing and becomes Steel. It's always had magnetic capabilities being made from magma (Magmamite? lol) and other rock from deep inside the planet. I'm glad you like it, it was your suggestion that brought it to life!
