Pokédex entry
It is encased in a steel shell. Its peering eyes are all that can be seen of its mysterious innards.
こうてつの カラで まもられている。 すきまから めだまが のぞいているが なかみの しょうたいは なぞのまま。

Trivia

Iron Shell was given an errata so that the coin flip was now mandatory upon the Energy attachment, as opposed to optional as was printed on the card.

Origin

Explosion is a move in the Pokémon games that Forretress can learn. This card's Pokédex entry comes from Pokémon Diamond and Pearl.
