Mount Coronet
Mt. Coronet (Japanese: テンガンざん Mt. Tengan) is part of a long range of mountains that divide the Sinnoh region in half. Most of it is a deep cave, though there are several above-ground areas. The name is a reference to the word corona.
Mt. Coronet has entrances on routes 207, 208, 211, and 216, connecting Oreburgh City, Hearthome City, Eterna City, Celestic Town, and Snowpoint City. After the HMs Surf, Strength, Defog, Rock Smash, and Rock Climb and the item Azure Flute are obtained, the mountain is fully navigable. The caves inside the mountain have paths blocked by rocks and boulders. There are several pools of water throughout the cave. The summit of the mountain has grass where wild Pokémon live and is covered in snow. At the mountain's peak is the Spear Pillar, where many spiked pillars protrude from the ground. By using the Azure Flute in the center of the pillar a staircase appears which can be taken to the Hall of Origin.
Video Games
Mt. Coronet has only appeared in Pokémon Diamond and Pearl so far. Although the player must pass through the mountain several times on their journey through Sinnoh, the most important events relate to Tema Galactic. The player first meets Cyrus in Mt. Coronet's caves. Later on, Cyrus's plans bring Team Galactic to the mountain once again. Many Galactic Grunts invade the mountain. At the Spear Pillar Cyrus summons Dialga or Palkia, whose power is too much for him. The legendary Pokémon is left for the hero to defeat or capture.
If an Azure Flute is obtained from a special Nintendo event, a staircase can be opened on the Spear Pillar to the Hall of Origin where Arceus waits.
Trivia
- Mt. Coronet is the only location in Sinnoh where the elusive Pokémon Feebas can be caught. It only appears in four fishing spots in the basement, which change every day.
- Mt. Coronet emits a special magnetic field. As a result, Magneton and Nosepass can only be evolved into Magnezone and Probopass, respectively, by leveling them up here.
