>“Both designed by Sugimori. These two are counterparts, with one based on an ant, and the other an anteater. They both can be found on Victory Road. I had a very clear vision of ants that dug themselves a cave and an anteater that came in to prey upon them. For a long time we’ve wanted to make an ant Pokemon that would be the smallest Pokemon, but this time I focused on this particular design. Heatmor eats iron, so I incorporated elements of an iron works into its design.”
