Read more ↓Heatmor, the Anteater Pokémon, is a fire-type creature introduced in Generation V. It is known for its unique appearance, resembling an anteater with a fiery tail and metallic claws. Heatmor has no evolutionary relatives, standing as a standalone Pokémon. Its natural habitat typically involves volcanic areas or places with high temperatures, where it can sustain its internal flames. Heatmor’s diet consists primarily of Durant, its natural prey, which it hunts using its long, flame-heated tongue. This predatory relationship is a notable aspect of its behavior, creating a dynamic ecological niche within the Pokémon world. In the games, Heatmor often appears in areas like the Giant Chasm in Unova or Route 7 in Kalos. While not a central figure in the anime, it has made appearances showcasing its fiery abilities and unique design. Its design, reminiscent of old-school cartoons, adds to its charm and distinguishes it from many other Pokémon. Heatmor's fire typing gives it advantages against grass, ice, bug, and steel types, but makes it vulnerable to water, ground, and rock types.
