Heatran at Stark Mountain

After you become Sinnoh Champion, the story takes you to the Fight Area and Stark Mountain. Once the Magma Stone is safe, a side quest lets you battle Heatran itself. Win, and Heatran starts roaming Sinnoh, where you can catch it.

Getting to the Fight Area

Section titled “Getting to the Fight Area”

  2. Walk north to Stark Mountain. From the Fight Area, go through Route 225, the Survival Area, Route 226 and Route 227 to reach Stark Mountain.

Walkthrough

Section titled “Walkthrough”

  1. Follow the story to Stark Mountain. Your quest tracker sends you to speak with Buck, who asks you to go up Stark Mountain and guard it. Inside, Charon is trying to take the Magma Stone to awaken a legendary Pokémon.

  2. Stop Charon. Climb through Stark Mountain Inside to the hidden chamber at the top. After the battle he hands over the Magma Stone.

    Charon’s team: Slowking (level 76), Toxicroak (level 72), Crobat (level 74), Houndoom (level 74) and Drapion (level 71).

  3. Return the Magma Stone. Bring it back down to Buck on the Stark Mountain map and give it to him. This finishes the story part and starts the side quest Battle Heatran.

  4. Battle Heatran. Go back up to the hidden chamber (Stark Mountain Hidden). Heatran is now awake. It is a single level 120 Heatran and it cannot be caught in this battle.

    Bring strong Ground, Water or Fighting moves. Heatran is Fire and Steel, so Ground moves are 4 times as effective. Do not use Fire moves: this Heatran has Flash Fire, which absorbs them.

  5. Win the battle. Heatran roars and flees. You receive 10,000 F, and Heatran now roams Sinnoh.

Finding the roaming Heatran

Section titled “Finding the roaming Heatran”

A roaming Pokémon moves between maps.

  1. Open the tracker. Open the Roaming Pokemon Tracker (one of the icons at the top right of the screen) to see where Heatran is right now.

  2. Go to that map. Look for Heatran in the grass or caves.

Roaming Heatran is a normal wild encounter, so you can catch it. It can also drop Blaze Coins.

After the quest: Heatran boss

Section titled “After the quest: Heatran boss”

Once you have beaten the level 120 Heatran, a second Heatran appears in the same chamber as a weekly boss. It only accepts your challenge if you have a Heatran in your party, and it fights with a full level 100 team on a difficulty you choose. See Bosses and high-level battles.
