Spear Pillar
From Bulbapedia, the community-driven Pokémon encyclopedia.
Spear Pillar (Japanese: やりのはしら Spear Pillar) is a location in the Sinnoh region, located atop Mt. Coronet, where Dialga or Palkia can be battled and captured in Pokémon Diamond and Pearl, depending on the version. It is also where the player meets the boss of Team Galactic, Cyrus, and faces off against him as well as Mars and Jupiter. The player faces Mars and Jupiter while battling alongside his/her rival.
After the defeat or capture of Dialga or Palkia, the Adamant Orb or Lustrous Orb, respectively, will be able to be found behind where the Pokémon was.
If the player has the Azure Flute, it will make a whistling noise almost as soon as the player enters the area from the cave. If the player chooses to blow into it, a staircase will appear that extends up to the Hall of Origin, where Arceus awaits. However, obtaining the Azure Flute and ultimately accessing the Hall of Origin and Arceus is currently impossible without hacking, as Arceus has not officially been revealed yet; the Flute will likely be available by Mystery Gift at a future event.
Super Smash Bros. Brawl
Spear Pillar[1] (named in the Japanese version as テンガンざん やりのはしら Mt. Tengan Spear Pillar)[1] is also an unlockable stage in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. Players can unlock the stage by completing Event 25: The Aura Is With Me. The background of the stage will feature either Dialga, Palkia or Cresselia, who will occasionally do things to affect the stage such as tilting it diagonally or breaking the middle section of the top platform; Dialga reverses time to repair the damage. The Lake trio will also make cameo appearances when something happens to the stage.
The stage's default music is a mix of "Battle! Dialga & Palkia" and "Spear Pillar." Optional pieces of background music are "Battle! Team Galactic" and "Route 209."
Trivia
- The name spear pillar is a reference to the creation myth in Shintō, where the deities Izanagi and Izanami were given the spear 天沼矛 Ame-no-nuboko, with which they created 淤能碁呂島 Onogoroshima, upon which they built the pillar 天御柱 Ame-no-mihashira.
- Spear Pillar is technically part of Mt. Coronet, and therefore, Magneton and Nosepass will evolve here if leveled up.
