Mt. Coronet has a strong magnetic field that causes {{p|Magneton}} and {{p|Nosepass}} to evolve into {{p|Magnezone}} and {{p|Probopass}}, respectively, when leveled up here.

 

After Giratina and Cyrus are defeated in the Distortion World, the player ends up in the Pokémon world once more at the entrance to [[Turnback Cave]]. Once the Elite Four are defeated and the player has found both the {{DL|Legendary artifacts|Adamant Orb|Adamant}} and {{DL|Legendary artifacts|Lustrous Orb}}s in Mt. Coronet, Cynthia's grandmother will tell the player that in ancient times, people apparently met with Dialga and Palkia, by having the Adamant and Lustrous Orbs. Returning to the Spear Pillar with these items, the player will be able to battle with and potentially capture Dialga and Palkia.

If the player has the [[Azure Flute]] on returning to the Spear Pillar after entering the [[Hall of Fame]] and obtaining the [[National Pokédex]], blowing into it will cause a staircase leading to the [[Hall of Origin]] to appear. It is an event-only area, and when the player has the Azure Flute and returns to the Spear Pillar after defeating the Elite Four (as the event will not be possible until after Team Galactic has been vanquished and Dialga, Palkia, or Giratina  has been captured, defeated or fled from), the flute will make a sound. After blowing into the flute, a staircase will appear leading up, out of sight. After reaching the top of the staircase, the player attempts to capture the legendary Pokémon, Arceus. However, since the Azure Flute was never officially distributed, it is not possible to access the Hall of Origin without the means of cheating or hacking.

A large part of the {{series|Diamond & Pearl}} focused on Team Galactic searching for the gateway to the Spear Pillar, located somewhere on Mt. Coronet. They finally discovered it in ''[[DP150|Unlocking the Red Chain of Events!]]''. In ''[[DP152|The Battle Finale of Legend!]]'', they used the [[Spear Key]] and a fragment of the Red Chain to unlock the gateway. At the Spear Pillar, Cyrus used the {{an|lake guardians}} and the Adamant and Lustrous Orbs to summon Dialga and Palkia, which he then took control of with the Red Chain. {{Ash}}, {{ashfr}}, and [[Cynthia]] arrived to stop them, defeating Team Galactic's Pokémon and freeing the lake guardians from Cyrus's control. Despite of this, Cyrus was still able to force Dialga and Palkia to start the creation of the new universe. Cynthia realized that the only way to stop the creation was to destroy the Red Chains controlling the Legendary Pokémon. {{AP|Pikachu}}, {{TP|Brock|Croagunk}}, {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}}, and {{TP|Cynthia|Garchomp}} launched a combination attack on the Legendaries, but Cyrus has Dialga and Palkia to strike back with {{m|Roar of Time}} and {{m|Spacial Rend}}, respectively, blocking the attacks and almost hitting Ash and his friends, only to be saved by the lake guardians' combined {{m|Protect}}. The next combination succeeded in breaking the Red Chains, and the creation of the new universe was stopped. Cyrus, amazed by the sight of his creation, stepped into the collapsing portal, disappearing into the depths of his own "perfect universe".

Spear Pillar is the location of the final battle of {{chap|Diamond & Pearl}}. After the creation of the second Red Chain being foiled by {{adv|Diamond}}, {{adv|Pearl}}, and {{adv|Platinum}}, Cyrus was left with no choice but to create an artificial one to replace it. Once arriving at the Spear Pillar, he told [[Saturn]], Mars, and Jupiter to keep anyone from entering while he was completing the seremory. Soon after this, the Sinnoh [[Gym Leader]]s arrived at the Spear Pillar via [[the Underground]], thanks to [[Byron]] and the [[Underground Man]], and started battling against the Team Galactic Commanders. Meanwhile, Cyrus managed to use the Red Chains to summon Dialga and Palkia, and forced them to fight each other in order to wipe out the old world and create a new universe in its place.

Just when everything seemed to be calming down, [[Charon]] appeared, revealing that the hole created by the battle wasn't the seed of a new universe, but a portal to [[Distortion World|another world]]. Suddenly, {{p|Giratina|mysterious tentacles}} appeared from the portal, and sucked Cyrus, Dialga, and Palkia into it. Charon managed to escape with a smoke bomb distraction, but Diamond's {{DL|Diamond (Adventures)|Kit}} managed to snatch his notebook before he got away.
