How do you get articuno in HeartGold?

Answer 1

Once you've gotten at least five badges, as well as HM03 and HM04, Surf to the Seafoam Islands east of Cinnabar Island. You can also reach them by Surfing south from Fuchsia, but you need to take the west entrance in order to open the way to Articuno. The currents in the lowest levels of the island flow too quickly to be able to Surf on them, so you'll need to use Strength to push the boulders you'll find into the adjacent holes. Once the current is blocked, fall down one of the holes and surf past the stairs, then you'll reach the island where Articuno roosts. It is at level 50, so be prepared and bring fire type Pokemon. Bring at least 50 ultra balls.

------------------------------------Articuno------------------------------------How to get Articuno, the ice-bird:

1)Get to Fusia city, better known as the city with the safari zone and the 6th gym in it. When you're att the Pokemon center, walk down and you'll see the 2 swimmers

2)Use surf down near the sea

3)You will go through a bunch of trainers ... these are best avoided ... keep on going along in till you arrive at an island with a cave on it.

4) Enter it, push the boulder to the right in the hole, go up the platform and follow it to the east, push that boulder in the hole too, and head back to the west of the platform. and make you way down a ladder. Then use strength to push two rocks down two holes.

5)Go down another ladder and there you go. Now the see is calm you should have no trouble getting Articuno.

If you have a master ball i advise NOT to use it. There are 5 legendarys altogether and Articuno is the easiest to catch. Use you starter Pokemon to lower it down and then go wild with ultra balls. It is better to save it right in front of him so if you kill him/ run out of balls you can turn the power off.

Good luck!articuno is in the seafoam island cave and you need to have surf which you can get in fushia city in the safari zone

Answer 2

You have to complete the boulder puzzle thing in the seafoam islands. Once you've pushed all the boulders into their holes, then go to the lowest level you possibly can, and surf into the most north-western corner of the room. Articuno will be on a small plateau there. Make sure you have lots of ultra balls.

Answer 3

Before you come here, heal your Pokemon and go to a Mart. First prepare with Ice Heals, the highest potion, 2 escape ropes, and lots of Ultra balls. Take a Fire Pokemon (Ponytas a great choice if you don't have Charmander), an Electric Pokemon (A well leveled Pikachu or Raichu is good), a Pokemon with STRENGTH, a Pokemon with SURF, and your starting Pokemon (If you don't have Charmander), you should also bring a high level Butterfree or a high level grass Pokemon (With sleep powder). SURF until you get to the Seafoam Islands. On you way here you can catch a Tentacruel if you like. You can catch a ton of new water type Pokemon in the cave. On the first floor you can get Seel, Slowpoke, Psyduck, Golduck (red), Horsea (red), Krabby (blue), Shellder (red), and Staryu (blue). On the second level you can catch Staryu (both), Dewgong, and Seadra (red). On the third you can get Kingler (blue). The forth floor has Golbat and Slowbro (blue). On the forth floor, if you have all the boulders in the water, you can fight Articuno, the Legendary Ice Bird Pokemon. Save your game and go inside. To get through to Cinnabar Island, you will need a Pokemon who has the Strength ability. First, after entering, go up, then right, and push the boulder into the hole. Go up the steps, but don't go down the ladder yet. Instead, go up, right and down the steps and push that boulder into the hole. Now go down the nearby ladder and push the boulder into the next hole. Go back up the ladder, then go to the other ladder and go down it. Go down the steps, then down, right, and up the steps. Go right, up (Don't go down the ladder yet), right, and down the stairs to push the boulder down into the hole. Now go back up the steps, then left, down (Still skip the ladder), left, and down the steps. Now, go all the way left, then all the way up, and down the ladder. Now go all the way right and push the boulder down the hole. One more to go. Now, go back left and up the ladder, then go all the way down, all the way right, up the steps, then down, up, and (Finally) down the ladder. Now, go down, left, and down, then down that ladder. Now, go right, down, right, down the steps, then left. To get one boulder into each hole, first push the boulder blocking the passage to the left hole all the way left, then push the boulder above the left hole down the hole. Now, go to the two boulders near the right hole. Push the RIGHT one up as far as you can, then push the left boulder one space down, two spaces left so it's above the hole, then push it down the hole. Now, go right, up the steps, left, up, left, up, right, down the steps, then down the ladder. Go right, up, right and up the ladder. Go up the last ladder, the go down the steps and push that boulder into the hole. Now, go back up the steps and down the ladder, and then go down the next ladder. Now, go left, down, left, past the ladder, go down the steps, and Surf left, then all the way up to Articuno's platform. SAVE before you talk to him. Articuno is at level 50, and he is pretty hard to catch. Use the same techniques as you did with Zapdos, and you should be able to catch him. Try putting him to sleep or paralyzing him. Now, to get out, go back to the main platform, and go down the left ladder. Go up the steps, then left, down, right (Avoid the ladder), up, right, down the steps, and Surf to the other side. Now, go right, down, and down the ladder. Just go up the ladders until you reach the exit.

Answer 4

To get Articuno, you must have all 16 gym badges and have defeated Red at Mt. Silver. Then, go to the Seafoam Islands (east of Cinnabar Island) and go to the very bottom of the cave. Articuno will be waiting in there.

Answer 5

Articuno can be found deep in the Seafoam Islands, in Kanto. If you want to capture it, it is advisable to use a Master Ball, unless you have used it for something else. You can then use Quick Balls, which sometimes work, Dusk Balls, Level Balls (which work quite well if you use it with a Lv.100 Pokemon) and maybe even Ultra Balls.

To lower it's HP, you should use Rock types. They are super-effective for both Ice and Flying types. Careful, because if you use too strong a Rock move, it might faint, and then you will not be able to catch it again, unless you use cheats or a friend trades one with you.
