Summary
Heatran (Japanese: ヒードラン Heatran) is a Fire/Steel Type Legendary Pokémon. It is known to make its home in volcanic caves, using its cross-shaped feet to crawl along ceilings and walls. Though the outer layer of Heatran's body is made of incredibly hard and rugged metal, the Pokémon's own blood is so incredibly hot that parts of its shell have become more malleable. It is currently the only known Legendary Pokémon which can be either male or female.
