Iron Hands (Japanese: テツノカイナ, Hepburn: Tetsunokaina) (EYE-ern HANDS[1]) is a Fighting/Electric-type Pokémon introduced in Generation IX.
Biology[]
Physiology[]
Iron Hands is a large, mechanical being shaped like a Hariyama. It possesses a set of large hands that hover independent of it's body and possesses glowing, crystaline matter on the underside of its hands, on it's hips, and on it's torso where the shoulders would be. It's legs are large spheres that are colored deep blue and connect to small, black feet and to it's silver torso. There is some black thrown in as a tertiary color on it's stomach and inner thighs.
Behavior[]
Iron Hands is purportedly not a Pokémon according to a magazine. It was an athlete who was wounded to the point of dying until their body was reconstructed using bionic parts, taking a form similar to Hariyama. It is unknown what this athlete did or why they were reconstructed in the form of Hariyama, but given that Hariyama appears to be based on a Sumo Wrestler, it is possible that the athlete was of the same sport, or a similar physical sport.
Natural abilities[]
Iron Hands' fist can move on their own and capable of throwing large, fast-moving vehicles with no issues.
Evolution[]
Iron Hands does not evolve.
