Competitive Landscape
Aggron’s moveset in Gen 3 introduced significant advantages that set it apart from its predecessors. Its signature move, Heavy Slam, was a powerful Physical attack with high recoil, making it ideal for sweeping opponents quickly. Iron Tail provided impressive coverage against Fairy and Psychic-type foes, while Earthquake offered reliable Ground-type damage. Additionally, Aggron’s Rock Slide gave it a versatile option for dealing with Flying and Fire-type Pokemon. Compared to other Steel-type Pokemon like Metagross or Steelix, Aggron’s balanced defensive stats and diverse moveset made it a more well-rounded choice for both offense and defense.
