    Biology

    Heatran lives in volcanic caves as it climbs walls with its cross-shaped feet. Its body is made of rugged steel, but due to its own body heat, it is partially melted in some spots. Boiling blood like magma circulates in its body. Stories of it tell that it was born from magma on Mount Coronet.
