Where to find Magmaw
Magmaw keeps to The Wild and never leaves it. It is one of 71 species on that ground, and one of only 4 of them sharing its element.
How to catch Magmaw
Magmaw is one of 178 uncommon species, takes a Basic ball or better, and its 30% base leaves 303 of the 608 harder to land than this one. The first ball freezes it, and The Wild is home to 71 species, so the catch is decided on timing far more often than on luck.
Supply
Magmaw is one of the abundant ones at 1200, with only 109 species allowed to run looser and 495 held tighter, and even at this end the number is fixed: the 608 caps come to 407,200 creatures, the entire population this world will ever have.
In a fight
As one of 4 fire types sharing The Wild, it hits Nature hard and loses ground to Water, Celestial, which is what will be thrown at it. It leans hard on raw attack: 88 against 55 for its next best, a gap of 33 that decides how it wants to be played.

Questions
Where do I find Magmaw in NOKEMON?
The Wild. Other players can attack you there, and dying leaves a tombstone anyone can open.
How do I catch Magmaw?
Throw a Basic ball or better and win the timing bar. The base rate is 30% and your accuracy moves it, but the ball is spent whether you land the catch or not, so carry more than you think you need.
Is Magmaw rare?
Not by the standards of this world: the cap is 1200. It is still a ceiling though, and once it fills the species stops spawning for everyone.
What are the shiny odds on Magmaw?
About 1 in 100 per capture. Nothing improves it: no ball, no streak, no item and no amount of waiting. The only lever you have is how many you throw at.
