In-Depth Analysis
Iron Valiant's 590 base stat total marks it as a fast attacker that leans on outspeeding threats and hitting hard. Attack (130) carries most matchups, but a low Special Defense stat of 60 means careful positioning matters.
Its Fairy, Fighting typing leaves Iron Valiant with 5 weaknesses against 4 resistances and 1 full immunity. Notably, it carries no 4× weaknesses, which makes it harder to punish. On offense, its STAB moves threaten 7 types for super-effective damage.
A low catch rate of 10 makes Iron Valiant a genuinely tough catch; bring strong balls and status moves. It levels on the Slow experience curve. Defeating it grants Attack +3 EVs, which is worth remembering when EV-training your own team.
