Pokémon Scarlet and Purple: Iron Valor’s Weakness and Counters
Iron Valiant is a dual-type Pokémon Fairy Fighter with weaknesses to the following types:
- Flight 2 times
- poison 2x
- Steel 2x
- Psyche 2x
- Fairy 2x
So if you are planning to fight and catch Iron Valiant, then we recommend that you choose Pokemon with the aforementioned types. Corviknight is a steel and flying type Pokemon, so it is the best opponent against Iron Valiant. Iron Valiant takes double damage from both steel and flying attacks. In addition to being able to use both, Corvinite is resistant to Fairy-type attacks. This gives you more chances against the Valorous.
Also, you can use Revavroom against him. This Pokémon is also a dual type and can use steel and poison attacks. Similarly, you can use Tinkaton, which is a double type of Fairy Steel. Iron Valiant has weaknesses against both of these dual types. Make sure you don’t use dragon-type attacks as he is immune to them.
