Amamel live in icy biomes, favoring locations that are cold and dry. Amamel can be quite difficult to find in these biomes, since they create Icy Wind and Mist from their humps as they slumber.
A Amamel stores boiling magma in the hump on its back. This ancient Pokémon was restored from part of its body that had been frozen in ice for over 100 million years.
