LAIRON tempers its body by drinking highly nutritious springwater until it is bloated. This POKéMON makes its nest close to springs of the delicious water.
Sapphire
LAIRON feeds on iron contained in rocks and water. It makes its nest on mountains where iron ore is buried. As a result, the POKéMON often clashes with humans mining the iron ore.
Emerald
When two LAIRON meet in the wild, the fight for territory by bashing into each other with their steel bodies. The sound of their collision carries for miles.
FireRed
It habitually shows off its strength with the size of sparks it creates by ramming its steel body into boulders.
LeafGreen
Diamond
For food, it digs up iron ore. It smashes its steely body against others to fight over territory.
Almost always goes first. The user is protected from all attacks for one turn, but the move's success rate halves with each consecutive use of Protect, Detect or Endure. If a Pokemon has No Guard, or used Lock-On or Mind Reader against the user during the previous turn, its attack has a [100 - move's normal accuracy]% chance to hit through Protect; OHKO moves do not benefit from this effect. Blizzard has a 30% to hit through this move during Hail, as does Thunder during Rain Dance.
Fails unless the user goes last; if an opponent strikes with a Physical or a Special attack before the user's turn, the user retaliates for 1.5x the damage it had endured.
