Lately, fans have been keeping their eyes peeled to see which Generation V creatures are newly available in Niantic's augmented reality mobile game, Pokémon Go. Not long ago that we reported that we would be looking ahead at new entries such as Axew, Solipede, Sewaddle, and their evolutionary forms for a total of at least nine new Unova entering the game.

Looking back to Generation IV's Sinnoh Region for a moment, the legendary creature Heatran is returning to five-star raid battles, and the shiny version will be appearing as well. Trainers can begin facing Heatran on Tuesday, January 7th at 1:00 pm PST and will have the opportunity to do so until February 4th at 1:00 pm PST, Heatran will be returning to run the five-star Raid Battles in Pokémon Go. 

Heatran has a very unique dual-type of Fire and Steel which makes it a worthy opponent in the Master League, so if you can handle heading out in the weather it would be worth it to capture one for your team. By the way, have you tried the new Pokémon Go Buddy Adventure feature yet? Your Pokémon companion can now join you on the map bringing along a bevy of features such as feeding your friend and having them join you when capturing.

Check out the full trailer for the upcoming Pokémon Go Buddy Adventure feature in below!
