[@sobbleco6248]

A detail I’ve noticed about Iron Valiant is that its chest is hollow. Since it’s based on Pokémon that are all about emotions, this implies that Iron Valiant has no emotions, being a stone-cold robot and all.

[@spindash64]

[@jaschabull2365]

[@MastodonMann]

Great observation

[@Kyumifun]

Yeah, no wonder it's a "failed creation" according to the theory. The supposed mad scientist's goal was to make "the strongest Psychic type Pokémon to exist" but he couldn't replicate the core part of the Pokémon that inspired its form, the Ralt's line's whole emotion theme. It's strong and has a fairy type cause that's what makes Gardevoir so strong, and it's got the fighting type since it's designed to be a fighter. However it lacks the psychic type as it cannot replicate the emotion gimmick due to being a robot that has no will of its own. Thus this made Iron Valiant seem very cruel and violent. I feel like it's at least very loyal to its master since it's propably programmed to obey whoever owns/catches it. Also, you know, Iron Valiant is in a way, the perfect Pokémon to own. It doesn't get tired, won't question your orders or disobey, is strong. A quality any trainer desires.

[@LitoSunflower]

Fun fact, Miraidon’s Pokédex entry calls it “Iron Serpent”.

[@sinisternorimaki]

And Koraidon is Winged King. Ferromandra and Reyalado in Spanish.

[@TheTrueBongoKnight]

Turo himself calls it such as well, after you complete the Indigo Disk DLC. (That's been out for long enough, right?) Sada also calls Koraidon the "Winged King," a name that's in his Scarlet Pokédex entry.

[@Blunder-Blue]

I feel like Iron Valiant is also meant to be representative of the 'Evil Robot Double' trope you see in fiction a lot. Built by an evil scientist in the image of two Pokemon that are traditionally meant to be caring and heroic. It has their moves, and despite not having psychic type it DOES learn psychic moves... but it lacks their heart and soul, thus the lack of psychic type. Seriously, it's even built by a mad scientist--Metal Sonic was the first thing that came to mind when I saw its style of LED eyes.

[@jacobfoxfires964]

Was about to say "So like Metal Sonic?"

[@bigjalapeno7061]

I guess that is pretty cool

[@a_random_lizard]

So, you're telling me, that Iron Valiant is built to be an efficient, heartless, stone-cold killer that has the power of both Gardevoir and Gallade, but isn't as strong as it intended to be because it's not the original?

[@dahlgalai]

​@@a_random_lizardIt's stronger than the original form but weaker than Mega-evolved version

I would also like to point out that Iron Leaves can be viewed as a corruption of justice, as someone created their own sword of justice aka “they made their own justice”.

[@bigjalapeno7061]

[@JamesDavy2009]

Now I imagine a Pokémon comic series starring an Iron Leaves as an analogue of Judge Dredd.

[@christopherbennett5858]

Which could signal either peace or destruction. Frankly, it depends if the system of justice serves all people or just those who financially benefit from enforcing it.

[@voyager1568]

Well, at this point, all three “swords of justice” have a future paradox. Truthfully I think they’re pretty cool. They disagree job with all three, and I feel as though the were able the breathe new life into a trio that a lot of pokemon fans weren’t very excited about. Of course, the last paradoxes are also very cool in their own way

[@deadlydingus1138]

Some theories I’ve had regarding the Violet Paradox forms - “Iron” is the company that manufactured them. Lots of companies slap their names on their products, like Apple Watch and whatnot, so that consumers know where they came from. - Their typings were based on a limited understanding of the distant past (A winged creature with dark plumage? It must be a flying type. A monster with sharp spikes? It must have been part electric. Etc.) - The reason that they’re smaller than the pokemon that their designs are based on is so that they’re cheeper to make and more transportable. - They do get kind of “quarky” at night.

[@swipeslogjack_tgaming9472]

But Do I blame them? No! If I was forced to breach space-time in illegal ways and made to keep wandering the same crater for years without breaks, I'd probably get a little quirky too.

[@D-Wrecks]

So, remember, these Pokémon hold a special place in the hearts of scientists and we need to show them a little respect, right? Okay.

[@jacobfoxfires964]

I do like this new way of approaching what "Iron" in their name is suppose to mean. It's very uniform with the future pokemon and with all the things that connect them better than the past pokemon, it does make you think. Be it the substance it's using being this "Iron" or the company making these pokemon, there is a lot more to these pokemon than what people thought.

It's worth noting that Iron Moth's size difference compared to Slither Wing and Volcarona proper is possibly a reference to insects shrinking in size over the course of millions of years due to there being less available oxygen compared to the rich atmosphere of the prehistoric era!

For those wondering... The mug disappears because F. Lockstin takes it, then returns it to him later in the video. There is no paradox. The mug has just been brought forward in time. Lockstin doesn't even immediately notice it, which is why he brings it up.

[@Blastosie_Offical]

But Lochrome only took it because it went missing in the past

[@syndere6755]

@@Blastosie_Offical that event is exactly what unfolds. He takes it in his past, current present, which means it has been taken in the past, so he takes it.

[@Blastosie_Offical]

Which is exactly the paradox. The mug was taken by someone in the future because the mug was taken in the past.

[@RotaAbyssian]

​@Tera_Starstorm I'm not sure about it being a paradox though, more of a causality loop. Past Lockstin loses the mug because the most present Lochrome stole it to give to the most present Lockstin, so when Lockstin reveals the absence to Lochrome, he is causally forced to steal it to preserve the loop. Taking something from the past to the future, especially things that are historically "lost" is much less messy than taking something from the future to the past. The example that comes to mind is the authorship paradox of The Song of Storms from Ocarina of Time. Adult Link learns it from the Windmill Man, because he heard it from someone like him a long time ago. Armed with a recently learned song, he returns to the past and plays it for the Windmill Man who had never heard it before, thus Link becoming the person who taught it to him. The song has now become its own grandpa, for ease of explanation.

[@Blastosie_Offical]

I have a theory on why Iron Moth is Poison-type. In the future, the skies were super polluted with poisonous gasses, blocking out the sun, so Volcarona tried to replace it like the Pokédex says but died due to the gas, so they built Iron Moth to do the same thing but with a natural resistance to the poisonous gas.

[@toumabyakuya]

And now this suddenly sounds like the backstory of the Jetsons of all things.

[@N.EO-Quartz]

Volcarona seems like a Pokémon that would give its life to help people.

[@christianrose9166]

But then Steel-type would make more sense, due to its outright immunity to poison.

[@eduardogiraldez5471]

It could also be in reference of how the sun can produce heat and radiation that can be poisonous to life if it reaches large enough quantities.

I was thinking about this concept after seeing a fan art of a Golurk variant: it has moss growing around it, it’s cracked center where their core would be has a tree branch coming out of it and wrapping around its back, and it’s right arm (our left) is a tree trunk with its roots baring resemblance to his arm. I’d imagine it’s origin is that in a far-future world, a Golurk is blessed with a task to cleanse the Earth of its pollutants, and does so with aplomb. It sits in harmony with the cleaned earth for millennia until it was “brought back” (because remember it’s not a time machine, it’s essentially a wish-granting machine) from the far future to be inspected, though out of all the future paradox pokemon it doesn’t attack, it peacefully leaves to begin cleansing the present world, as in its mind is sees this as another task to fulfill.

I was hoping you would talk about Iron Moth's cute and expressive LCD eyes. It makes me think it's not just an observation drone of some kind, but it's specifically meant to earn the trust of families or children, and observe more closely. It also does the exact thing you mentioned of its wings fitting together into a sun shape during certain attack animations, even moving the wings in front of its body and causing them to glow brighter, as though releasing stored solar energy.

I'm curious, is it one specific attack that makes it move the wings in front of its body?

Maybe it's a case like Iron Bundle's where most special attacks make it hold its tail like in the artwork, or scream like its battle intro, while Ice Beam is (afaik) the only one that has it jump up and hover above the tail.

What may be of interest in regards to an Iron Valiant's behaviour, is to refer to both Gardevoir and Gallade. Gardevoir and Gallade both use their Psychic abilities to communicate and sense another's emotions. An empath. Remove the Psychic typing, and they lose the means to be an empath. They're not driven by another's emotions anymore, driven to protect others because of said emotions. Now, they're killing machines. Made to protect themselves and ruthlessly attack anyone what who may be deemed a threat. It's rather upsetting.

[@jacobfoxfires964]

Also remember that since Gardivoirs can view into the future, it could be that (If this is a future for Pokemon and not just the constructs of a legendary Pokemon turning dreams into reality) this is the future they are seeing. That they will see what will become of them, a cold, violent, and sufficient killer. And that might be why they are so close to their trainers. They know what their fate is, so they want to spend as much time with their trainer and protecting them for as long as possible.

Iron Moth's fire/poison type could also be explained by it being a futuristic Volcarona. Volcarona is a substitute sun, the pokedex mentions that if the sun is being blocked a Volcarona can temporarily take its place by flying into the sky and producing flames from its wings. Iron Moth is an artificial substitute sun, with that in mind it's possible it is conducting thermonuclear fusion in its wings. The plasma produced is represented by the fire type and the radiation it produces is represented by the poison type.

[@youwotboi9288]

Ok so 2 things 1.I always thought that Iron Hands is supposed to be electric energy since it has the defibrillator hands and has the most yellow out of all future paradoxes(though maybe its just because it's a Hariyama) 2.The dex entries for Ralts states that it warms up when feeling the emotions of others and Kirlia,alongside Gardevoir, get their psychokinetic abilities enchanced when in the presence of people with strong positive emotions. Gallade being much more about physical fighting can also use these powers to his advantage as he is capable of sensing the thoughts of opponents, predicting their moves ahead of time.

The 'Iron Energy' (mentioned at 44:46) is probably just man-made or rather a refined version of Booster Energy. The Held Item that the Paradox Pokemon hold. As they drain Booster Energy's for... well a boost, similar to how machine's would run off of a battery. BUT, the reason why I say 'man-made' is because Past Paradox Pokemon can also use Booster Energy, but instead of doing this through electricity, they do this through photosynthesis... or well Protosynthesis, but you get the idea. My simple hypothesis is that Booster Energy is basically a sort of super-solar energy that was once very common across the planet or at least where/when Past-Paradoxs where around, and was eventually lost due to time. But some scientist in the future was able to find and integrate this Booster Energy into the Iron Line of Paradoxs. I mostly like this idea, because it not only has parallels to things like fossil fuels, but because Booster Energy is just the weird thing that no one really talks about when talking about the Paradoxs. If only SOMEONE would do a video about it...

[@jacobfoxfires964]

That I can see. And might be what ties into both paradox pokemon AND the Legendaries. This booster energy being some kind of power source, or a type of energy that brings out the full capabilities of the paradox pokemon. The past involves sunlight and solar power since the ancient past has a lot more sun, at least in depictions of the past. And the future, it's this new super advanced liquid that acts like an electrical power source. Something the future depicts being a regular thing as oil or gas. And that explains why they get this boost with their field effects. Sunny Day and the intense sunlight powers the past pokemon without this item, along with the electrical terrain doing the same for the future ones. But that also means Koraidon and Miradon are special. And why they are legendaries. They are beings that are self sufficient. No need for those items, they can MAKE their own field effect, making them always at 100%. They are anomalies that are always at their peak performance, which is something other paradox pokemon don't have.

[@Zac_Frost]

@jacobfoxfires9647 And maybe as it evolved into Cyclizar, the Koraidon line lost that power, but upon rediscovering it, scientists try to re-engineer it into them, causing the mutation into early Miraidon versions that again become self-sustaining as that dormant gene reawakens and they evolve further.

You aren't entirely wrong but they should have done more unique robots instead of just here is the pokemon that is metallic and cyber-like. For example I like what they did with iron hands where yes it was basically just cyber hariyama but the floating hands with a slight defibrillator theming made it more like a pokemon integrated with technology and then utilized in a future society. Almost like speculative technoevolution not true evolution.

[@lunalycanroc4941]

My own personal theory on the "iron" in the names and whatever energy the Future Pokémon run on is that it's Iron from the cores of stars and that the Quark Drive ability seems to mean they run on quark gluon plasma. This is further proven by Miraidon's Hadron Engine as when the plasma hadronizes you get a reaction that produces matter and antimatter which when they annihilate each other produces a huge amount of energy. Although I'm more curious as to how this fuel source works on Ancient Pokémon via the Booster Energy.

Fun Fact about your comment on Iron Leaves being a vehicle, which relates to a meme calling it a "All Terrain Vehicle" Iron Leaves is, almost literally, an "All terrain" mon Due to it's combination of Grass/Psychic + Quark Drive, it synergizes well with Grassy, Psychic, and Electric Terrain. Grassy boosts its Grass moves by 30% and heals it. Psychic boosts its Psychic moves by 30% and protects from Priorities. Electric activates its Ability and also boosts it's Signature Move Psyblade. It's only missing Misty Terrain, but even then it still welcomes the buffs granted (-50% from Dragon, protects from non volatile status effects)

[@giboit.]

It seems to me that the future paradox pokemon have an underlying theme of futuristic warfare and spionage going on. So, maybe there's some kind of war in the future? I also think the fake lore of the occulture magazine tabloid for Iron bundle may be based on the idea of ooparts (out of place artifacts), basically, it's an object that is found as part of a past civilization that due to its design or properties that resemble more advanced technology seems to belong to a future era without a concrete explanation. But this one indeed comes from the future. Which is essentially what created the paradox that brought those pokemon to present time (the professors got obsessed with the creatures from the scarlet/violet book, created a time machine, brought the paradox pokemon to the present and then traveled to their desired eras at the end of the game and they made sure to send some pokemon to Heath's era for the scarlet/violet book to be created in the first place in order for them to get obsessed with them and create the time machine (creating the entire time loop and maybe accidentally sending one Iron bundle way too far into the past). Basically, it's a bootstrap paradox.

I think the future paradoxes are similar because of standardization/uniformization. Like I know technically all individuals of a Pokémon species look the same because of game limitations, but I imagine the past paradoxes would have a lot of individual differences, while the future paradoxes would have barely any (one rare anomaly of a shiny when the painting machine ran out of ink). Just a clean design copy pasted over and over. Actually it's possible to check the size of a Pokemon in S/V, right? Can they have different sizes?

If that's the actual reason for the future paradoxes, that's kinda sad... an actual monotonic dystopian future. Kinda like the simplification of logos and website designs...

I've always been more of a scifi nerd than a fantasy nerd, to the point that I'm STILL waiting for a full on space adventure Pokemon game where you can explore new worlds, seek out strange new Pokemon and boldly go where no trainer has gone before, but this is a tantalizing teaser for such a concept. Honestly Iron Valiant is easily my favourite Paradox Pokemon, and maybe in my top 20 Pokemon of all time. a friend of mine who did a full playthrough of Violet pointed out its similarity to both Mega Man and Metal Sonic. The eyes in particular look exactly like the latter. And with the double bladed plasma sword one could even loosely compare it to General Grievous or a Magnagaurd droid. Not to mention it just looks so dang sleek. Iron Valiant also has a loose connection to MewTwo with regards to the motives of its creator. "To create the most powerful and deadly Psychic Pokemon the world has ever seen." Perhaps this future scientist was inspired to start this project after reading some of Dr. Fuji's old notes and thought he could succeed where Dr. Fuji failed...only to fail even harder.

For a type heavily associated with nature and magic, it's funny how Iron Valiant is only the _second_ robot Fairy type. It also seems far less deserving of said type than the one that we got in Gen 7. While Iron Valiant seems to lack any emotions or seemingly any ability to sense them, Magearna on the other hand is _extremely_ sensitive to emotions in _spite_ of being a robot. Also, all these robot Paradox Pokemon and not a single one seems to have an arm cannon, like Magearna does and through which fires their signature death laser, which is also somehow not the only Fairy type death laser.

[@ThisAintGood.]

My theory is that Iron Treads isn’t actually a paradox form of Donphan due to its different face, and proportions. I think this is because it’s a paradox form of a future evolution of Donphan, one that we haven’t seen yet, one that evolved to be even better at rolling which explains why Iron Treads is shaped so differently. This seems more likely since in the Titan battle Great Tusk goes “DON PHAND” thus Donphan, but Iron Treads goes “WHIRRR DONN” maybe eluding to it not being Donphan The reason it could be referred to as Donphan is because that’s the closest thing it looks like without being the exact creature. In fact we’ve seen a similar thing in BDSP and Legends Arceus. The story of Manaphy book includes a “Qwilfish with large spikes” which turned out to be an Overqwil, a pokemon that wasn’t released yet. What if the Violet book does the same thing with Iron Treads?

I've always loved Gardevoir and Gallade (NOT for the Rule 34 reason), and after learning about a fusion of the two whilst also being an awesome robot, it quickly became my favourite Pokemon. The dual halberd is an amazing futuristic extension of Gallade's own blades, and the unique typing is just a cool lore idea, with it being both Gardevoir and Gallade, but failed Psychic type. I also loved Iron Leaves' design as well, as I love the entire Swords of Justice. So, I was glad to know that a Virizion Paradox form was in Violet.

Still I think the Paradox Pokémon are just fictional creations from the Scarlet/Violet books. That explains why the designs are so basic (past= dinosaur, future= robot) and how Heath could see the Paradox mons 200 years before the "Time Travel" machine even was invented. And this isn't a *_GAAAME THEORY_* but the game itself points out to that question.

[@oyeh8908]

The Paradox Pokemon seen by Heath’s team also looked different from the ones brought over by Sada/Turo. Like Great Tusk having longer back spines and claws, and Iron Treads having real legs instead of the stubby folding ones.

@@oyeh8908 Maybe the ones that Heath's team saw were Paradox Pokémon that were constantly exposed to the Tera crystal's energy (Maybe even brought over by a surplus of tera energy when Terapagos landed on the planet).

I think the secret to paradox comes from the iron juggulis idea. What if all paradox Pokémon are the results of time traveling Pokémon.

Here’s one idea for The Goo. So they all have the ability Quark Drive, right? Well, Quarks are a group of Elementary particles that come in 6 flavours: Up and Down(The compose Protons and Neutrons depending on the third Quark), Top and Bottom(Not the same as up and Down), and Charm and Strange(The largest). Now, there are two main ideas on how this ability relates to the pokemon: 1. In astrophysics, there’s a theoretical stage between Neutron Star and Blackhole, the Quark Star. When this happens, Neutrons merge and dissolve into Quarks, thus instead of using Neutron degeneracy pressure to keep it alive, they use Quark Degeneracy Pressure, A.K.A, there’s literally no more room to compress, so they could be using very small but massive Quark Stars to power them through Quark Degeneracy Pressure 2. There’s another state of matter beyond Plasma. The most common form of plasma is in Stars, where the heat fully ionizes atoms, but go beyond that, and the heat causes the Strong Force to make atomic nuclei fall apart into the constituent Quarks and Gluons, creating Quark-Gluon Plasma, the hottest state of matter and the state that everything was in directly after the Big Bang, so this futuristic society could be using the primordial power of the Big Bang to power these robots, back when the fundamental forces were one. Select the theory you prefer and use that as your explanation for the Quark Drive ability

[@davethefyrezorua]

Here's Iron Crown and Iron Boulder for the suckers who wanted them: Iron Crown much like it's Future Sword friends has some sort of futuristic weapon. This being the horns on its head. They can fire off beams that can cut anything. My guess is that Iron Crown was used as a much more complicated version of a pair of scissors. Either that or it was too used to make a perfect psychic being. It still has that steel will that its present counterpart has, hence it being Steel-Psychic. Iron Boulder can use its extending horns to break and cut through anything with such strength. My guess is, it was made for two reasons like Iron Crown. To make the perfect psychic being, or in this case a futuristic bulldozer. We all know technology is advancing constantly, so it would be natural for Iron Boulder to be a bulldozer for when regular bulldozers can't go on much longer.
