The game perplexes a Pokemon Violet player by appending the prefix “Iron” to names of Paradox forms that are not of the Steel type. In the Generation IX games, GameFreak introduced a new type of Pokemon known as Paradox Pokemon. These Pokemon are the ancient and futuristic counterparts of Pokemon from generations past.
The Great Crater of Paldea serves as the setting for the Pokemon Scarlet & Violet game, and players will come across Paradox Pokemon while exploring it. The standard typing of Pokemon like Delibird and Volcarona can shift when they transform into their paradox versions. However, one of the players pointed out that even though the word “Iron” is part of the moniker of Violet’s Paradox Pokemon, they are not of the Steel type.
Players speculate why the Iron Paradox Pokemon don’t have the Steel type
On the Pokemon subreddit, a member named SnorlaxAndLucario interpreted their confusion and presented it as a classic meme. They contemplated why none of the futuristic Paradox Pokemon Violet had the Steel typing, even though their names began with Iron. DreamblitzX made the following observation in the thread’s comments: “The tech is advanced enough to more strongly mimic other types, I guess.”
The user oranger commented, “I wish instead that they were all called Mecha.” “Still manages to communicate the robotic aspect, but in a way that isn’t as linked to Steel.” Karma_YY remarked, “I just think that even though they are made of iron, they don’t wield it and have too thin shells.”
Some players appeared perplexed by the naming choice made by GameFreak, while others expressed relief that not all Paradox Pokemon make out to be of the Steel variety. The same type of Pokémon over and over again would eventually bore trainers, whereas having a diversity of Pokémon gives you an advantage over your rivals. Fans who have followed the franchise for a long time are aware that the titles and typing of some Pokemon have not always made sense. Concerning Iron Moth, one player pondered that Volcarona could have evolved into a Fire/Poison-type Pokémon.
Some people thought that because Iron Moth has solar arrays for wings, it ought to be a Fire/Electric-type Pokémon. However, one of the players in the video game hypothesized that the Pokemon’s assault technique involved the production of poisonous gas. Even though Violet’s Paradox Pokemon have titles that are hard to remember, Iron Hands and Iron Bundle have been successful in Tera Raids.
