The legendary raid boss Heatran can be defeated in Pokémon GO by two players. Many players are now taking on the challenge to defeat Heatran with special Pokémon.
Heatran has been dominating the arenas of Pokémon GO for a few days now. On the first day, players discovered that Heatran is very easy to defeat with just two players. Many players are now setting their own challenges.
They use weaker Pokémon to defeat Heatran or fight only with different monsters. We will show you some highlights of this duo challenge.
How easy it is to defeat Heatran
This is how to defeat Heatran with two players: Heatran is vulnerable to the types Ground, Fighting, and Water. It even has a double weakness against Ground. If you have a team of Groudon and Rhyperior at level 30, it is enough to defeat Heatran.

Players are taking on a challenge
Since Heatran is particularly easy to defeat, some players now want a challenge. They deliberately choose slightly weaker Pokémon or fight with special battle teams.
With 12 different Pokémon: In this video, two trainers battle with 12 different Pokémon. Not only are Groudon and Rhyperior included, but also weaker Pokémon like Alolan Diglett or Donphan.
As an additional challenge, none of the Pokémon have weather bonuses, so they do not benefit from any extra attack bonuses.
Heatran only with Flygon: Who would have thought that Flygon would be in the spotlight? In this video, two trainers battle exclusively with the Dragon and Ground Pokémon. Additionally, Flygon does not benefit from the weather bonus.
The special thing here is not only that it was possible to win with Flygon, but also that two players raised multiple copies of Flygon to maximum level.
More challenges: The internet is full of bizarre battles against Heatran. For example, players have defeated the legendary Pokémon only with Gyarados or Machamp. Additionally, Heatran has also been defeated with Pokémon that are at maximum level 25.
