Heatran Quest

[Bitterblade]

This quest will guide you through acquiring the legendary Pokémon Heatran.

 

Pre-Requisites

• Sinnoh Championship
  • Sinnoh Championship requires you to have beaten the Sinnoh Elite 4 which can be found in the Pokémon League Sinnoh (North of Sunyshore City). To access the Sinnoh Elite 4, you must have acquired all 8 Gym Badges from Sinnoh.
• All non-legendary caught data for Sinnoh (Dex entry 387 - 479)
  • The caught data for all non-legendary Pokémon in Sinnoh can be obtained in various ways. Firstly, simply catch and/or evolve for the missing caught data. Another way to get the caught data would be to use player offered dex service. You can identify what caught data you are missing by opening your Pokedex and looking for entries that do not have a Pokeball on the bottom right of their sprite.
• Have only one level 60 or less Pokémon in your party.

 

Beginning the Quest

The quest begins in Stark Mountain in Sinnoh's North East islands. These islands can be accessed by either the Teleporter (requiring the Hoenn / Sinnoh Teleporter Quest to be done) or by speaking with the Sailor in Snowpoint City. 

 

The closest Pokémon Center to Stark Mountain is in the Survival Area. From the Survival Area, you will need to go East through Route 225, Route 226, Route 227, Stark Mountain Exterior Pt, and Stark Mountain Entrance Pt. NOTE: It is highly recommended to go through these routes and clear the NPC Trainer battles before bringing your single, level 60 Pokémon to avoid accidental leveling.

 

Once you have cleared the areas, return to the Survival Area Pokémon Center and get only your level 60 or less Pokémon then head back to Stark Mountain Entrance Pt and speak with Buck. He will then ask you if you are ready, select "1. Yes!" and the quest has begun. Note: When entering, all Rare Candies, Exp. Candy, and Master Balls will be removed from your bag.

Inside the Cavern

Once you are inside the cavern, you will need to approach Commander Mars and Charon to trigger some dialogue. After the dialogue, they will venture deeper into the cavern. Buck will then apologize for dragging you into this but informs you that if you need your Pokémon healed while you are hear that you can speak with him. Note: If you leave the cave and your Pokémon has grown to above level 60, you will have to acquire a new level 60 Pokémon.

 

There are a few options to consider while you are in the caverns.

 

• Take the shortest path to the Heatran Room (path provided in the screenshot below)
  • The shortest path will also mean the fewest trainers. 
• Catch Pokémon in the area to expand your team.
• Battle trainers to level up your Pokémon.

 

The decision is yours and when you are ready, head to the Heatran Room.

Spoiler

 

If at any point you lose a fight, you will respawn in a room at the bottom left of Stark Mountain Main Cavern Pt. You will lose money and still have to battle the Trainer that you lost to.

 

Heatran Room

Once you reach the Heatran Room, a dialogue cutscene will begin between Commander Mars, Charon, Buck, and yourself.  Afterwards, Buck will heal your party and a battle with Commander Mars will begin. Her team can be seen below.

 

After defeating Commander Mars, you will have to fight the Level 80 Heatran. After defeating the Heatran you will be teleported to Stark Mountain Exterior Pt. 

 

Catching Heatran

After you get teleported out of the Caverns, head to a Pokémon Center and grab your sync Pokémon and prepare to catch Heatran. You can also talk to Buck to retrieve your Rare Candies and Master Balls. Once you have everything you need, head back to the Heatran Room where you will be able to catch the Level 30 Heatran.
