Within Pokémon Violet’s enigmatic Area Zero, ancient and futuristic versions of familiar Pokémon await discovery. Among them, Iron Leaves, the Grass/Psychic Paradox form of Virizion, stands out as a formidable force.
To obtain Iron Leaves, players must participate in a special event within the game. Once acquired, it boasts a unique ability that grants a 30% Attack boost when Electric Terrain is active or when its ability, Quark Drive, is triggered.
To maximize Iron Leaves’ potential, we recommend the following moveset:
– Leaf Blade: A powerful Grass-type move that benefits from STAB and the chosen Tera Type, increasing its Critical Hit rate.
– Psycho Boost: An exceptional physical move that capitalizes on Iron Leaves’ secondary Psychic type.
– Thunderbolt: Offers coverage against Steel-type foes, a common threat to Grass-type Pokémon.
– Protect: Shields Iron Leaves from incoming attacks, ensuring its survival.
If players prefer to emphasize Iron Leaves’ Psychic capabilities, an alternative build exists:
– Psyblade: Enhances Iron Leaves’ Psyblade move, sacrificing Leaf Blade for increased Psychic damage.
– Choice Scarf: Boosts Iron Leaves’ Speed, allowing it to strike first and amplify its damage output.
– Iron Defense: Raises Iron Leaves’ Defense, compensating for its low base stat and increasing its survivability.
– Earthquake: Provides ground coverage, targeting Pokémon that resist Grass and Psychic attacks.
