Where to find it

• Scripted encounter (Lv. 90): Union Cave B1F — lava pedestal.

  Obtain the Magma Stone in Diglett’s Cave after the Silver Conference closing ceremony. Place it on the Union Cave B1F lava pedestal on a Tuesday. Reach the pedestal using Surf and either carry a Cleanse Tag or pay the old woman $2,000. Summoning consumes the stone; once summoned, Heatran can be battled on any day. One chance: catching it, knocking it out or fleeing removes it; only losing allows a retry.

See the quest guide: Union Cave: Heatran in the lava pool (Tuesdays, Magma Stone).
