Iron Valiant (Japanese: テツノブジン Tetsunobujin) is a dual-type Fairy/Fighting Paradox Pokémon introduced in Generation IX.
While it is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon, it appears to be a futuristic relative of Gardevoir and Gallade.
Biology
Iron Valiant is a mechanical, bipedal Pokémon whose appearance retains numerous visual traits from both Gardevoir and Gallade. Its arms consists of gauntlets with large magenta blades protruding from the sides, which it can detach and combine to serve as a deadly double-edged weapon. Its head spikes outward twice from both sides and is covered by a green curved piece resembling hair with two cone-shaped structures at the back of its head, and a teal head crest, somewhat akin to a gladiator's helmet. A magenta core serves as a centerpiece on its chest. Five petal-shaped white and green guards tinged with magenta at the ends adorn its torso, resembling a dress.
Iron Valiant is mentioned in what is presumably the paranormal magazine "Occulture", described as being similar to a robot invention created by a mad scientist. Said mad scientist created Iron Valiant to be the strongest Psychic-type Pokémon in existence, though it ultimately ended up becoming Fairy-type/Fighting-type. Iron Valiant is described as having a very cruel nature. It was willing to mercilessly cut down anyone in its way. It does this by using the brilliantly shining blade to strike without hesitation.
