Right, Air Balloon was all the rage back in Gen 5 and I completely forgot about it! Thanks for pointing it out :3

The reduced damage from it might turn some 2HKOs into 3HKOs, but as long as Heatran outspeeds the opponent (e.g. Hippowdon), that should be fine because they'll probably waste a turn figuring out it has a Balloon and then need another turn to pop it.
