Hmmm thanks.
I guess my ideal way of handling this would be to add some Sinnohan variants of select 5-8 monsters (they adapted to become fire-type to keep warm in the colder climate!).
But it’s far more likely that they throw a gift Charmander into the early game or something.
Galaxy brain solution is that they add baby and mid-evo forms to Heatran and accept that it’s never been much of a legendary.
No to the Sinnohan forms. It doesn't make sense for an old region to have regional variants of newer Pokémon. The Alolan and Galarian forms worked because those Pokémon already existed when those regions were introduced.
No to the Charmander gift. Charmander was already available in Sword and Shield and people are getting tired of Charizard.
And no to the pre-evolved forms of Heatran. If I would do anything to reduce it's Legendary status, I would give it to a trainer like Flint so that we could register it in our Sinnoh Pokédex without reducing the amount of National Dex Pokémon we'd see in the Battle Zone.
