Read more ↓Skarmory, the Armor Bird Pokémon, is a dual-type Steel/Flying Pokémon introduced in Generation II. Its body is composed entirely of steel, giving it incredible durability and making it immune to poison. Skarmory typically nests in thorn bushes, where it sharpens its wings by flying through the thorns. These wings are not only razor-sharp but also allow it to fly at high speeds, often soaring above 9,800 feet. In the wild, Skarmory is known for its territorial nature, often engaging in aerial duels with other flying Pokémon to assert dominance. Its diet primarily consists of mineral-rich rocks, which contribute to the growth and hardening of its metallic feathers. Skarmory does not evolve from or into any other Pokémon, making it a standalone powerhouse. In the games, it is highly valued for its defensive capabilities and access to useful support moves like Spikes and Stealth Rock. Its sleek, metallic design and formidable presence have made it a popular choice among trainers and a recognizable figure in the Pokémon anime, often depicted as a strong and resilient opponent.
