[[File:Hammerlocke anime.png|thumb|250px|Hammerlocke in the {{pkmn|anime}}]] | |||
Hammerlocke was one of the main settings of the Sword and Shield arc, first appearing in ''[[JN042|Sword and Shield, Slumbering Weald!]]'', as a burst of [[Galar particle]]s escaped from the [[Energy Plant]]. The same happened again in the [[JN043|following episode]], prompting {{an|Leon}} to investigate [[Rose]]'s actions. In ''[[JN044|Sword and Shield: "From Here to Eternatus!"]]'', {{TP|Leon|Eternatus}} escaped from the Energy Plant and started the [[Darkest Day]]. While Leon engaged Eternatus above the [[Hammerlocke Stadium]] and {{Ash}} battled Rose at the Stadium battlefield, [[Sonia]] and [[Goh]] arrived in the city and busted through the barrier of {{tc|Macro Cosmos's|Macro Cosmos employees}} guarding the Stadium entrance. As Goh entered the Stadium and started battling [[Oleana]], Sonia was joined by [[Raihan]], who easily defeated the Macro Cosmos employees, before heading off to deal with rampaging [[Dynamax]] Pokémon. | |||
In ''[[JN045|Sword and Shield... The Legends Awaken!]]'', after defeating Rose and Oleana respectively, Ash and Goh rushed to the [[Tower summit|summit]] of Hammerlocke Stadium just in time to see Leon being defeated by Eternatus. Using the [[Rusted Sword]] and [[Rusted Shield]] Goh had found at the [[Slumbering Weald]], they summoned {{p|Zacian}} and {{p|Zamazenta}} to their aid and succeeded in defeating and {{pkmn2|caught|catching}} Eternatus, ending the Darkest Day. | |||
In ''[[JN108|Catching the Aura of Fate!]]'', Raihan was seen in Hammerlocke, preparing for his upcoming World Coronation Series match with Ash. The match occurred in the [[JN109|following episode]], taking place at the Hammerlocke Stadium. After a challenging battle, Ash was able to best Raihan in the season's last entrance battle, granting him a place in the Masters Eight. | |||
In ''[[JN131|Paring Pokémon While Parrying!]]'', Eternatus, while being observed by [[Professor Magnolia]] at the Energy Plant, reacted to the intense energy created by Ash and Leon's [[Masters Eight Tournament]] battle at [[Wyndon Stadium]] and broke out of its containment before flying to [[Wyndon]]. | |||
In ''[[HZ024|Reunion at the Ancient Castle!]]'', [[Liko]], [[Roy]], and [[Friede]] took a train to the Hammerlocke Station to get to the [[ancient castle]] where [[Diana]] was hiding. | |||

[[File:Hammerlocke Adventures.png|thumb|250px|Hammerlocke in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]] | |||
===={{MangaArc|Sword & Shield}}==== | |||
Hammerlocke first appeared in ''[[PASS11|Gulp Gulp!! Pokémon]]'', where [[Raihan]] was seen examining the progress of the remaining {{tc|Gym Challenger}}s. | |||
In ''[[PASS12|Thump!! The Gazing Sage]]'', when {{Henry}} arrived at the Hammerlocke entrance, Raihan challenged him to a battle and beat him. He explained that due to him constantly losing against [[Leon]], he was in need of material of himself being victorious in battle to post in the social media. Afterwards, he took Henry to the vault, where they found [[Sonia]] being attacked by a {{pkmn2|wild}} {{p|Oranguru}}. When Sonia explained that it had started attacking her after she had accidentally stepped on its fan, Henry figured out that it was mad because the fur on its fan had gotten messed up. After he had tidied up the fan with a brush, Oranguru calmed down and even asked to be {{pkmn2|caught}} by Henry, which he agreed to. [[PASS13|Afterwards]], they entered the vault and examined the four tapestries present there. After rejoining with {{Casey}} and meeting [[Opal]], Henry traveled to [[Stow-on-Side]] with them. | |||
In ''[[PASS16|Rising!! Opal of Ballonlea]]'', [[Bede]] was in Hammerlocke after [[Rose|Chairman Rose]] had revoked his Gym Challenger status, receiving a letter sent for him by Opal just as a big quake shook the city. In ''[[PASS17|Stealth!! Infiltrate the Energy Plant]]'', Raihan managed to convince Leon into focusing his attention on protecting the civilians while he investigated what had happened, sneaking into the [[Energy Plant]]. He was soon found out by Chairman Rose, who explained the quake away as a failed experiment, although Raihan didn't buy it. | |||
After Sonia had been attacked on {{rt|7|Galar}}, Leon took her and the {{tc|Cabbie|pilot}} of her [[Flying Taxi]] to a hospital in Hammerlocke in ''[[PASS24|Unbelievable!! The Shocking Truth]]''. Once she could talk again, Sonia told Leon how she had overheard Chairman Rose talking with [[Sordward]] and [[Shielbert]] about their plans to bring about the [[Darkest Day]]. | |||
In ''[[PASS25|Rumble!! The Horrific Darkest Day]]'', following Chairman Rose starting the Darkest Day, a pair of {{tc|Interviewers}} started a live broadcast from Hammerlocke to cover the event, soon noticing {{p|Eternatus}} flying down from the sky. They were then approached by Sordward and Shielbert, who revealed Eternatus's identity to them and presented themselves as descendants of the heroes who had once defeated it in the ancient past. Later, most of the Galar [[Gym Leader]]s, Henry, Casey, Leon, Sonia, [[Hop]], [[Marnie]], and Bede pursued them to the Energy Plant, where they encountered Chairman Rose, who let them observe a live feed of Sordward and Shielbert battling Eternatus on the [[tower summit]]. When the two brothers failed to defeat Eternatus, Rose challenged it himself, but was defeated as well, leaving it to the Gym Leaders and their allies to battle the {{pkmn|category|Gigantic Pokémon}}. During the battle, it transformed into its {{form|Eternatus|Eternamax}} form. | |||
The Gym Leaders were eventually defeated by Eternatus, following which {{p|Zacian}} and {{p|Zamazenta}} joined the battle. In ''[[PASS30|Oh My!! The Disappearance of Henry]]'', when the [[legendary heroes]] attacked Eternatus, the three [[Legendary Pokémon]], along with Henry and the [[Rusted Sword]] and [[Rusted Shield|Shield]], disappeared in a brilliant flash of light. While the people who had been injured the worst during the battle were being treated at the Hammerlocke hospital, Casey reviewed the {{DL|Battle judge|Drone Rotom}} footage of the battle, noticing that Henry and the artifacts had actually disappeared moments before Eternatus, which led her to figuring out that he was likely {{m|teleport}}ed away by an unseen Pokémon. | |||
In [[PASS35]], the antidote for Eternatus's poison was shared amongst the people recovering in Hammerlocke, though its side effect caused everyone's hair to grow to drastic proportions. | |||
In [[PASS41]], Eternatus was revealed to have reappeared at Hammerlocke, with a group of [[Gigantamax]] Pokémon having gathered around the stadium to protect it. A group of Sordward and Shielbert's supporters tried to demand the two's release from prison, but Oleana refused to accept their demands. With Henry, Casey, and [[Marvin]]'s own Gigantamax Pokémon defeating the Pokémon guarding Hammerlocke and Bede's Gigantamax {{p|Hatterene}} forcing Eternatus down from the clouds, Zacian and Zamazenta were able to reach and defeat it. Following Casey's pleads, [[Macro Cosmos]] agreed to leave Eternatus free in the hopes of people learning to coexist with it. While the press tried to praise Henry, Casey, and their friends as heroes, Casey, Leon, and [[Piers]] gave that honor to Zacian and Zamazenta instead, not wanting to risk more people like Sordward and Shielbert coming about by starting to label more humans as heroes. | |||

Hammerlocke vault
- Main article: Hammerlocke Stadium → Trainers
Three Gym Trainers are battled at the vault during Hammerlocke Stadium's Gym mission.
In the anime
Hammerlocke was one of the main settings of the Sword and Shield arc, first appearing in Sword and Shield, Slumbering Weald!, as a burst of Galar particles escaped from the Energy Plant. The same happened again in the following episode, prompting Leon to investigate Rose's actions. In Sword and Shield: "From Here to Eternatus!", Eternatus escaped from the Energy Plant and started the Darkest Day. While Leon engaged Eternatus above the Hammerlocke Stadium and Ash battled Rose at the Stadium battlefield, Sonia and Goh arrived in the city and busted through the barrier of Macro Cosmos employees guarding the Stadium entrance. As Goh entered the Stadium and started battling Oleana, Sonia was joined by Raihan, who easily defeated the Macro Cosmos employees, before heading off to deal with rampaging Dynamax Pokémon.
In Sword and Shield... The Legends Awaken!, after defeating Rose and Oleana respectively, Ash and Goh rushed to the summit of Hammerlocke Stadium just in time to see Leon being defeated by Eternatus. Using the Rusted Sword and Rusted Shield Goh had found at the Slumbering Weald, they summoned Zacian and Zamazenta to their aid and succeeded in defeating and catching Eternatus, ending the Darkest Day.
In Catching the Aura of Fate!, Raihan was seen in Hammerlocke, preparing for his upcoming World Coronation Series match with Ash. The match occurred in the following episode, taking place at the Hammerlocke Stadium. After a challenging battle, Ash was able to best Raihan in the season's last entrance battle, granting him a place in the Masters Eight.
In Paring Pokémon While Parrying!, Eternatus, while being observed by Professor Magnolia at the Energy Plant, reacted to the intense energy created by Ash and Leon's Masters Eight Tournament battle at Wyndon Stadium and broke out of its containment before flying to Wyndon.
In Reunion at the Ancient Castle!, Liko, Roy, and Friede took a train to the Hammerlocke Station to get to the ancient castle where Diana was hiding.

Pokémon Adventures
Sword & Shield arc
Hammerlocke first appeared in Gulp Gulp!! Pokémon, where Raihan was seen examining the progress of the remaining Gym Challengers.
In Thump!! The Gazing Sage, when Henry arrived at the Hammerlocke entrance, Raihan challenged him to a battle and beat him. He explained that due to him constantly losing against Leon, he was in need of material of himself being victorious in battle to post in the social media. Afterwards, he took Henry to the vault, where they found Sonia being attacked by a wild Oranguru. When Sonia explained that it had started attacking her after she had accidentally stepped on its fan, Henry figured out that it was mad because the fur on its fan had gotten messed up. After he had tidied up the fan with a brush, Oranguru calmed down and even asked to be caught by Henry, which he agreed to. Afterwards, they entered the vault and examined the four tapestries present there. After rejoining with Casey and meeting Opal, Henry traveled to Stow-on-Side with them.
In Rising!! Opal of Ballonlea, Bede was in Hammerlocke after Chairman Rose had revoked his Gym Challenger status, receiving a letter sent for him by Opal just as a big quake shook the city. In Stealth!! Infiltrate the Energy Plant, Raihan managed to convince Leon into focusing his attention on protecting the civilians while he investigated what had happened, sneaking into the Energy Plant. He was soon found out by Chairman Rose, who explained the quake away as a failed experiment, although Raihan didn't buy it.
After Sonia had been attacked on Route 7, Leon took her and the pilot of her Flying Taxi to a hospital in Hammerlocke in Unbelievable!! The Shocking Truth. Once she could talk again, Sonia told Leon how she had overheard Chairman Rose talking with Sordward and Shielbert about their plans to bring about the Darkest Day.
In Rumble!! The Horrific Darkest Day, following Chairman Rose starting the Darkest Day, a pair of Interviewers started a live broadcast from Hammerlocke to cover the event, soon noticing Eternatus flying down from the sky. They were then approached by Sordward and Shielbert, who revealed Eternatus's identity to them and presented themselves as descendants of the heroes who had once defeated it in the ancient past. Later, most of the Galar Gym Leaders, Henry, Casey, Leon, Sonia, Hop, Marnie, and Bede pursued them to the Energy Plant, where they encountered Chairman Rose, who let them observe a live feed of Sordward and Shielbert battling Eternatus on the tower summit. When the two brothers failed to defeat Eternatus, Rose challenged it himself, but was defeated as well, leaving it to the Gym Leaders and their allies to battle the Gigantic Pokémon. During the battle, it transformed into its Eternamax form.
The Gym Leaders were eventually defeated by Eternatus, following which Zacian and Zamazenta joined the battle. In Oh My!! The Disappearance of Henry, when the legendary heroes attacked Eternatus, the three Legendary Pokémon, along with Henry and the Rusted Sword and Shield, disappeared in a brilliant flash of light. While the people who had been injured the worst during the battle were being treated at the Hammerlocke hospital, Casey reviewed the Drone Rotom footage of the battle, noticing that Henry and the artifacts had actually disappeared moments before Eternatus, which led her to figuring out that he was likely teleported away by an unseen Pokémon.
In PASS35, the antidote for Eternatus's poison was shared amongst the people recovering in Hammerlocke, though its side effect caused everyone's hair to grow to drastic proportions.
In PASS41, Eternatus was revealed to have reappeared at Hammerlocke, with a group of Gigantamax Pokémon having gathered around the stadium to protect it. A group of Sordward and Shielbert's supporters tried to demand the two's release from prison, but Oleana refused to accept their demands. With Henry, Casey, and Marvin's own Gigantamax Pokémon defeating the Pokémon guarding Hammerlocke and Bede's Gigantamax Hatterene forcing Eternatus down from the clouds, Zacian and Zamazenta were able to reach and defeat it. Following Casey's pleads, Macro Cosmos agreed to leave Eternatus free in the hopes of people learning to coexist with it. While the press tried to praise Henry, Casey, and their friends as heroes, Casey, Leon, and Piers gave that honor to Zacian and Zamazenta instead, not wanting to risk more people like Sordward and Shielbert coming about by starting to label more humans as heroes.
