Trivia

• Aron's name is an anagram of Template:B2; it is the only Pokémon whose name is an anagram of a Berry.
• Aron does not learn any Rock-type moves by leveling up, though it is part Rock. Its whole evolutionary family shares this trait.

Origin

Aron may have been based on a tortoise.

Name origin

Aron's name may be a combination of armor and iron. Aron's Japanese name can be broken down into 子 ko, child, Template:P2. Kodora is the Japanese name of Aron's evolution, Lairon, hence child Kodora.

In other languages
