Mt. IgneusMt. Igneus

This article contains spoilers!

Mt. Igneus is a volcano located on Route 6, behind Brimber City. It is where the Legendary Pokémon Groudon is located. When the player explores this volcano for the first time, the player must expel Team Eclipse, as the villainous team had robbed the Red Orb from Brimber Gym and headed to summit crater of the mountain to wake the sleeping Groudon.

Notable Places

Summit Crater

The summit crater of Mt. Igneus is where the first real showdown of player and Team Eclipse takes place. Eclipse Admin Harry places the Red Orb to awaken Groudon despite being defeated by the player, only to be scared off by the enraged Legendary Pokémon when his mask is blown off by only a roar. Gym Leader Sebastian comes to the player's rescue immediately afterwards, quickly calming Groudon and averting the crisis of a volcanic eruption.

Lava Pool to Igneus Depths

There is a tunnel that leads to a lava pool, which can only be bypassed when HM8 Rock Climb is acquired. Hiker Darrel is there for the player to battle and he is also available for rematches. Once players gain access to Rock Climb, they can bypass the lava pool and head into Igneus Depths, where another volcanic Legendary Pokémon rests.

• Mt. Igneous most likely got its name from the Igneous Rock, a rock formed when magma or lava cools.
