In an article from an August issue of {{DL|Magazines in the Pokémon world|Occulture}} magazine, it is said that the name Iron Moth was borrowed from that of a flying object described in the [[Violet Book]]. Iron Moth is said to resemble {{p|Volcarona}}, and it would descend from the skies, following people around and occasionally attacking them. Some point to Iron Moth's aggression as evidence supporting that it may be a UFO controlled by alien life. It is speculated that something out there may be using Iron Moth to observe the people of the [[Pokémon world]] in preparation for an invasion. In the [[TCG]], it was shown to be capable of sending its "legs" flying by themselves independently of its body. It has been seen releasing attacks from its six connected wings similarly to a cannon. While asleep, it turns itself off, connecting its wings to its back and causing the energy on its wings to disappear, making them black. | In an article from an August issue of {{DL|Magazines in the Pokémon world|Occulture}} magazine, it is said that the name Iron Moth was borrowed from that of a flying object described in the [[Violet Book]].
