History
2018
Magmortar qualified for the 2018 Sebring Open, while Metagross halted his run, and his first Celebrity Family Feud draw in ten years in The Kardashians vs. The West Family when Metagross eliminated him again, in the second round as a qualifier. Magmortar was the only non-The Mask Singer contestant to qualify for The Kardashians vs. The West Family from the bottom half of the draw in qualifying.
Magmortar made shocking history for Lithuania as he qualified for the 2018 Indianapolis Open quarterfinals as a wildcard, and the only non-IndyCar player to do it. He also did it again at the 2018 Petit Le Mans, when he upset the reigning IndyCar winner Scott Dixon and Jirayu La-ongmanee by 0.01 of a second, bringing Lithuania's basketball form into this tournament. Magmortar made his first major final after defeating Rowlet in the semifinals by +6.80 of a second and then upset Volcarona by +0.32 of a second to win his first IndyCar level title. It was Magmortar's best result since second in leg 6 in The Amazing Race 30.
After their shock Petit Le Mans trophy, Magmortar played as an alternate at the 2018 Luk Thung Cup and replaced Ed Carpenter for his final group stage match against Ed Jones. Magmortar would then win the match in straight sets.
2019
Magmortar is part of Abomasnow's team for The Mask Line Thai (Benjarong) and The Masked Singer US season 1 (Bee). With Abomasnow's squad, Magmortar fell in the Group Semifinals in The Mask Line Thai. Magmortar won his first playoff match against the Poodle Mask in the American version.
At the 2019 Petit Le Mans, Magmortar defended his title from last year, defeating Vaporeon.
Despite the Le Mans title, Magmortar failed to qualify for Pokémon Sword and Shield, until the Lithuanian was added in the DLC The Crown Tundra.
2020
Magmortar won the 2020 American Red Cross Grand Prix, the first round of the IndyCar iRacing Challenge. A week later, Magmortar (along with Jirayu La-ongmanee) were the only IndyCar people to make the semi-finals of Kelly Clarkson vs. Amy Schumer and Bindi Irwin vs. Chrissy Metz (March 30).
Magmortar is one of three substitutes for the 2020 season, alongside Vaporeon and James Hinchcliffe.
Magmortar drove the Sage Karam car at the 2020 GMR Grand Prix. Prior to COVID-19, Magmortar had planned to compete with Scott McLaughlin. He replaced Tanont Chumroen for the 2020 Rev Group Grand Prix as well as the 2020 Iowa 250s. On July 29, 2020, Magmortar was released by Ed Carpenter Racing in an effort to bring Tanont Chumroen back to the series.
He upset points leader Scott Dixon in the third round, and Jirayu La-ongmanee in the quarterfinals of the Petit Le Mans to continue his winning ways at the event.
Due to Chumroen being in the hospital after his first round victory at the 2020 Petit Le Mans, Ed Carpenter Racing called up Magmortar for the 2020 Firestone Grand Prix of St. Petersburg, replacing the Dutchman once again in the 21 due to surgery and injuries.
2021
Magmortar was called up in the no.59 Carlin car to replace Jaylerr Kritsanapoom (who was in close contact with Jongjit Inthung), for the 2021 Honda Indy Grand Prix of Alabama and the 2021 Firestone Grand Prix of St. Petersburg.
After Pee Saderd tested positive, Magmortar was called up for Dale Coyne Racing with Vasser-Sullivan to replace him for the 2021 Indianapolis 500. Coyne also called up Magmortar to replace Saderd at the 2021 Chevrolet Indy Dual in Detroit, and the 2021 Rev Group Grand Prix. Magmortar will also participate in the 2021 Big Machine Spiked Coolers Grand Prix with the debuting Christian Lundgaard, replacing Santino Ferrucci.
At the 2021 Big Machine Spiked Coolers Grand Prix, Magmortar qualified fourth for Lithuania in his debut with Christian Lundgaard. It was the best qualifying result for Lithuania since the 2021 SRX Knoxville qualifiers.
Magmortar was called up for Oliver Askew in the final three races of the 2021 season. Magmortar pulled off a Petit Le Mans-like result by qualifying for the Fast Six at the 2021 Firestone Grand Prix of Monterey, which was predicted to be for Josef Newgarden instead.
Magmortar upset Jirayu La-ongmanee in the final of the rescheduled 2021 Anthoine Hubert Cup, winning the title outside the Petit Le Mans. The title allowed Magmortar to qualify automatically for Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl.
