Read more ↓Aron, the Iron Armor Pokémon, is a Steel/Rock type introduced in Generation III, hailing from the Hoenn region. This diminutive yet formidable creature is known for its insatiable appetite for iron, which it uses to strengthen its metallic body. Aron typically inhabits mountains and caves, where it can be found munching on iron ore, bridges, or even train tracks if it’s particularly hungry. They are born with a soft body, but by consuming iron, their metallic armor hardens, allowing them to withstand significant impacts. Aron evolves into Lairon at level 32, and then into the mighty Aggron at level 42, a powerful pseudo-legendary known for its territorial nature and protective instincts over its mountain home. In the games, Aron is often encountered early, providing a strong defensive option for players. Its Steel/Rock typing gives it numerous resistances but also a few key weaknesses, making strategic use important. Aron’s depiction in the anime often highlights its tough exterior and surprising agility. Its unique dietary habits and robust nature make it a fascinating subject in the Pokémon world, embodying resilience and growth through consumption.
