Best Pokémon against Heatran. How to get a shiny Heatran.

Sprite of Heatran from Pokémon GO Heatran

Heatran is a Fire/Steel-type Legendary Boss in Tier 5 Raids, being weak to Ground (double-weakness), Fighting, and Water.

It can be shiny!

After beating the Raid, Heatran can be caught with the following Combat Power values:

  • 2058 – 2145 CP, for a regular Level 20 non-weather boosted encounter
  • 2573 – 2681 CP, for a Sunny or Snow weather boosted encounter (Level 25)

This Raid Boss can be duoed fairly easily, but otherwise we would suggest you take on Heatran in groups of 3-7, for high level players, or 8-20, for lower leveled players.
