Lairon are known for their incredibly durable bodies, which are covered in iron armor that grows harder with each molting. They inhabit mountainous regions and caves, often found near iron ore deposits, which they consume to strengthen their armor and diet. Their behavior is characterized by their territorial nature and their habit of ramming into boulders and other hard objects, not only to show off their strength but also to sharpen their horns and armor. In the games, Lairon is a formidable opponent with high Defense, making it a reliable physical wall. In the anime, Lairon and its evolutionary line often appear as powerful wild Pokémon or as companions to trainers who value their strength and resilience. Their design, resembling a prehistoric armored reptile, contributes to their popularity and makes them a visually distinct Pokémon. Its evolution, Aggron, is particularly iconic for its imposing stature and role as a pseudo-legendary-like Pokémon in many fans' minds.
